So I bought this broken HTC EVO 4G LTE on ebay and seller described that the phone fell of his pocket while riding a motorcycle and so the glass and digitizer broke (which doesn't matter for now), he also said that the Main/Rear camera stop working after a week of the accident.

Here's some pictures:

As you can see the screen is cracked and doesn't have a back top cover.

So after I got it the first thing I did was to check the camera and when I clicked the camera app and it automatically showed the front facing camera so I decided to change the camera mode to the main camera and noticed that it didn't show any camera mode option. Here's a comparison screenshot between my phone and a working phone from phonedog:

So I'm wondering is it a software problem or do I need to replace the rear camera or something else? Do anyone have a solution for this :(

It's always possible that the rear camera is toast and the software is smart enough to not offer you that option of switching to it.
