This iPhone SE 1st gen was given to me in this state. The previous owner drilled the front camera out for privacy reasons. I do not have a SIM card with service to test cellular connectivity. I am unable to get my watch to pair via bluetooth and Wi-Fi randomly stops working with the switch grayed out in settings.
Questa è una buona domanda?

@guardian10 "with the switch grayed out" if they went to the extent of drilling through the camera I would not be surprised that they also "disabled" BT and WiFi by the IC or the antenna or within the WiFi circuitry. You do need to check on all of that as well.
The image is best viewed when downloaded and opened in your own viewer due to its size.

I don't think they disabled the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, as they work most of the time, but randomly stop. It may be a board issue that was there beforehand.
@guardian10 okay sounds like you got that checked then. you do recognize that the " switch grayed out" will only apply when it is "not there" Sounds like a board issue.
@imicrosoldering what is your expert opinion on this situation :-)

@hellomacos It looks like the drill bit didn't get past the camera's rear bracket.

@guardian10
maybe try disassembling it and cleaning it as you go
some dust and debris may have gotten in the hole:-)
