I changed my iPhone 12 mini back camera and I got this message. ( unknown part- unable to determine if your iPhone camera is a genuine Apple part. This could be because the part is non genuine, not functioning as expected, or the installation is incomplete. The camera is working fine. Please if I continue using the phone, is there a problem ?
