Not really, I forgot the details, but the sensor tries to match brightness when you use the camera if you obstruct the sensor it won't let you use the camera, the workaround is to block the camera and the sensor so they match in brightness (darkness), then you can record videos but not take photos because all you'll take is a photo of your palm.
What meta is doing now they're going to put in a mandatory update so if they detect you tampered with or disabled with led light, typically people drill them out, your camera function will no longer work.
How do they do it? I imagine all they gotta do is do a led test with the sensor without the camera being activated, if the sensor doesn't pick up intermittent burst of brightness, the led must not be functional, disable camera.
You can literally just glue a piece of plastic over it.
