2NH_3(aq) + AgBr(s)rarr[Ag(NH_3)_2]^(+) + Br^-2NH3(aq)+AgBr(s)→[Ag(NH3)2]++Br−

Explanation:

And ammonia and hydroiodic acid is a simple acid base reaction:

NH_3(g) + HI(g) rarr NH_4^+I^(-)(s)NH3(g)+HI(g)→NH+4I−(s)

Of course, this would also work in aqueous solution, however, you would not see a product precipitating.
