Sounds like either you have damaged the camera or there is still a loose connection.

im pretty sure i didnt damage the camera unless i burned out the light sensitive part when i removed it from the casing... and ive tripple checked for loose connections

ill try reflashing the rom, dont have much hope tho...

Oh dear. When removing the camera assembly you should poke the lense out from the outside using a cotton bud or simialr rather than pull on the ribbon connector as it is quite fragile and not attached very well to the camera CCD unit. If this is the case then the only option is replacement. Check your pm :)
