What is that little 'box' to the left of the front camera, between the camera and the speaker?

Ah, thought it may be an LED. So where is the sensor for the main camera? :S

It also changes the intensity of the backlight, I believe.

How do you mean, the sensor for the main camera? All the main camera's apparatus (which amounts to the lens and the LED flash) is necessarily on the back of the phone.
