Tried all firmwares still same problem...lost all hope

Go back to your older firmware
go to badadownloads.com they have a video showing how to downgrade from bada 2.

I tried downgrading technique also but still same error "abnormal sw detected"...any other ideas?

Guess what i sucessfully flashed and repaired my phone...only problem is that i have "camera failed" now...any ideas how to rectify it?

How did you fix it ?? and what was missung??
Also What FW do you have now? if XXJK1 then i think you forget to flash *.pfs file
Happy because you fixed it
Best Regards

I flashed it with firmware GT-S8530_XEF_S8530XXKF1_S8530OXAKD7 and this fixed the phone. I flashed *.pfs file this time but still camera failed, any ideas?

Sorry i have no idea what is your current problem
maybe you should go back to your previous FW or try that fix
Best Regards

re-partition maybe, if you had the lag fix, that might mess something up... perhaps

Yeah I had the lag fix problem before, I now formatted the internal SD and now re-partitioning it, hopefully it works.
EDIT:
Still no use! It did not work, it's weird, I can downgrade but cannot upgrade to this firmware? WHY!!

Try checking the re-partition field in Odin before flashing.

Same here, well I tried flashing JUST the CODE file and it didn't work. I give up, I tried flashing this firmware 4 times now. I re-parition 3 times.
wow lucky we got people here always ready to take a plunge on new firmwares... ill hold out..thanks for the feedback.. and good luck guys i hope all goes well...
kindly let me know if anyone successfully installed this firmware, currently downloading now but it seems nobody ever get it working, just yet :S
Yeah tried several combinations myself too with and without repartitioning, looks like its gonna be crappy battery time a while longer yet...
well, i give up, no success

Yes. I'd probably recommend a rom & radio re-install.

You can just flash it the same way you do as a rom in CWM... Follow the instructions and posts from this thread (if you're GSM).

do u have cwm on ur phone? reboot ur phone into recovery then choose advance and choose fix permission, wait until finish, then reboot ur phone after it finish
Unfortunately I have the same problem. My camera does not work anymore. I just receive the message "Camera failed". I still have the stock rom installed and I did not modify too much (I just installed some apps). I have already reset the phone to factory settings which did not solve my problem. Does anybody have an idea what I could try to fix the problem?
Please help...
I just have formatted my device and flashed it with a stock rom. Unfortunately it did not solve my problem with the camera. I still got the error message "camera failed" when I click on the camera app. Any ideas? Is it a hardware problem? Should I flash a custom rom?
I got that message once, and I panicked. Fortunately, rebooting did it just fine.
Perhaps there is something wrong with the firmware...I searched the net and found this article, maybe useful, IDK.
Thanks for the reply and for the link. Unfortunately I do not understand step 3. When I scroll to "Camera" I do not see a 2nd option which should be named as "user". I just see "camera" and "camcorder". What should I do? Do I have to root the phone?
ok, I have rooted my phone and I have tried the fix described in the link above again. However, I was not successfull. I do not get these options described in the link ("user"). Maybe I am using a wrong version of Pro Launcher. I just downloaded the new version from market...Anyone with a suggestion/idea?
Camera failed
I used to face this problem quite a lot when i was using the stock rom, but after flashing to cow's rom, the problem went away, no more camera failed anymore
Yesterday after upgrade to baseband v. i8150dxlc1 Kernel [email protected]#3 (KIES UPGRADE) i dont have that problem anymore

make sure you have the reuqired drivers installed, just see youtube tutorials, you will get an idea on in this A1 forum, hit thanks if i helped you
I have the exact same problems and i tried using diffrent sd cards but its no use. I know lollipop will fix this issue because google said its bringing back support for sd cards in android 5. Till then i dont know how i can fix this issue. Btw i am on ART runtime . is that causing this problem or will flashing another stock rom work ? Please help.
SD Card Issue
My friend had the same issue with his A1, and I being his "go to guy", I did factory reset, factory reset from recovery mode, installed stock rom again but none of this worked. Finally, i replaced his SD card with mine and tried to click a photo and voila it worked. So morale of the story, buy a new SD card.

After rooting my camera doesn't work anymore:(

hey guys
So I rooted my Exynos S20 Plus after updating it to ATE6 . Since then when I try to open camera I just get "camera error" even after restart.
I tried to use the Samsung service menu and get "unable to connect to camera service" there
Anyone else experienced this and might be able to help?
Thanks!
Did you try resetting your phone once?
If it doesn't work reflash the rom with odin

Hey,
thanks for your answer.
When reflashing original firmware: Camera works.
When flashing the "vbmeta_disabled.tar" in USERDATA and the modified "KERNEL-G988BXXS2ATD5" (with Mgisk manager) as AP the camera no longer works, even after two full resets via recovery.

"KERNEL-G988BXXS2ATD5" is for the older firmware. Please wait and it will be updated for the latest firmware.
If you follow the instructions you can make your own boot.img to suite ATE6. That will fix your camera issues

Wow. Sometimes I dont know if my brain is actually active and running or if its just melted or sth.
When I flashed the kernel I "checked" the number and was "ah great, the same". But well I somehow still mixed them up.
After manually packing the new boot image it worked
THANKS!!!!!!!!!
