Camera: Evo vs. Incredible

We know it has the same sensor but.. Since the EVO uses LED, it can back-light the photo sensor like the iPhone. This helps in low-lighting.
Whereas the INC uses AMOLED, can it even backlight the photo sensor? Correct me if my assumption is wrong?

AMOLED has nothing to do with the flash, its just the screen.

LED is the lights next to the camera. the INC got 2 LEDs to help with low lighting scenarios.

I'm not talking about the LED flash. I mean to say the LCD screen itself. The light from the front screen is also illuminating the photosensor to capture more light. Maybe I misread that somewhere. The EVO camera's is backlit like the iPhone 4. Same with the Droid X.

EDIT: Nevermind, I google the sensors and they use a BSI sensor which doesn't need backlighting from the LCD.
