Help No sound or camera flash on galaxy s3

I dropped my phone and ever since there in no sound at all coming from the device, the speaker does not work(inc jack) there is crackling in the earpiece when trying to make a call, the LED light on the back does not work either. I have re flashed the phone to no success on fixing these problems, I also replaced the speaker unit on the back and the earpiece cable/volume button cable to no success either :confused: the motherboard looks to be in good condition but honestly cannot tell if there is anything wrong (apart from the metal plate which came off, looks to be a heatsink of some kind maybe? Can anyone shine some light on what could be possibly wrong here? Thanks :)
 
The motherboard is probably cracked and/or some of the capacitors have come loose. And there may be other problems, like cracked cable connectors, loosened controls, etc. If it's not under warranty, you're not going to like what it's going to cost just to diagnose all the problems.
