Hey guys
I just received a T520 , not new, and whenever I try to open the camera, it gives me warning : camera failed. Everything is stock on the tablet, I did a couple of hardware resets, wiped cache and data, and still nothing. Any ideas ?
I tried to install another camera app to see if it works, no luck.
I changed the firmware with a new one, nothing. So I guess it is a hardware error ? Can I access the front camera somehow ? Or is it the same module which I guess is broken ?

Hello!
I recently updated to 4.3 and rooted the device using Odin, however the default camera app is no longer responding - it gives me the following error message: "Unfortunately, Camera has stopped working".
Things I've done to try and fix it:
1- cleaned cache and data but that didn't solve the problem.
2- also reset the device to factory through settings but it didn't work either
3- re-install camera.apk (wouldn't install using Titanium)
4- install new stock camera from 4.3 rom (installed but got the same message)
5- manually replaced the files for the camera (system/app/SamsungCamera.apk and SamsungCamera.odex) AND Gallery (SecGallery2013.apk and SecGallery2013.apk) with new ones
Issue still persists...
Any ideas? Pls help.
Thanks!
if you're using xpose mod and wanam update to the latest wanam.

Thanks but it didn't work.
I got it solved today thou in an unexpected way by actually using the Back up feature within ROM Manager - the phone went into back up mode (like recovery mode where you see the little android robot and command lines), waited until the back up process was finished then rebooted without choosing the option to "fix possible root loss" warning. After that camera was finally back again.
Then I recalled that the last time I've done this back up through Rom Manager there was some sort of problem during the process which interrupted it so I realize now that somehow it affected the camera (have no idea how they relate thou) - but the fact is that as soon as it successfully finished the back up the issue was automatically fixed. Weird, stupid and very rare, I know... At least is fixed!

Not to thread jack, but do you have the apk for the stock camera app from 4.3? Thanks in advance
I've had exactly this same problem. Do I have to run a backup to fix it?
This is the error I get when using any camera with the exception of the front camera when using, for example the Facebook Messenger camera. I have flash stock KDZ and the problem still persists. I have tried factory reset and clearing the cache and nothing. So now that I have tried everything I must ask for help.
Hello everyone!
Last week I updated my Desire 816 to software version 1.60.401.1, and suddently camera (both cameras, the front facing one and rear facing one) stopped working.
The system camera app simply goes black just as opened, third part apps stuck as soon as got to the camera function (e.g. Instagram).
I tried clearing the system camera app cache and data, but this does not solve anything. What should I do now?
If that's an hardware issue, it is so strange it came just after the update!
Ok, problem solved. I performed a software reset as described in the user manual (long press on power button, choose reset, click on yes).
I asked the phone owner if she had done it, she said yes, but actually she hadn't: she had just switched it off and on again.
Sorry
[Q] [HELP] Getting "warning:Camera Failed" error popup when camera app is opened!
I keep getting this when I try to open my camera or any other third party camera application .
i tried clearing the cache , factory reset, hard reset and also removed Sd card n tried, still nothing.
But i am able to use the front camera on snapchat or on a hangout video call alone. If i tried to switch cameras ,they would just crash.
A fix would be really helpful!!
PS:
i bought the phone elsewhere and cant return it or exchange it
