tried all the suggestions to fix the problem and they did not work so i felt the only other option was to replace the cameras and see if it did the trick.
the repair went well. it is a difficult replacement more for the rear camera than the front but i completed the replacement and it corrected my problem. it took me about 4 hours (i took breaks when i got frustrated). i wish i had someone to take pictures. i looked quite funny with a knife in my mouth, flashlight on the table tweezers in one hand and holding the mother board with the other while trying to line up
