Mine also experienced the same problem, i've done all the things... like disabling google apps, Camera app, cleared all draw over apps finally the hard reset also but didn't seem to work... finally i got fed up and tried to figure it out myself ... bought my own service kit and disassembled my mobile... Here is the thing i found... the back camera module strip runs jus underneath the battery, the battery is fixed to the phone by a white synthetic glue... some poor assemblers in sony jus sticked the glue to the battery right on top of my camera strip which hinders the camera opening... then i removed the glue the cleaned the dtrip with ips solution now it s working good...
Try carefully if you are doin so... this was the reason for my camera fault...

Lol, I also got fed up with it and sent the unit at the service center for product replacement. 1 week after, the result is a mainboard problem and WTF! 2 WEEKS FOR APPROVAL OF ITEM REPLACEMENT!! I will never again buy a phone from sony. Too much hassle damn
This also may occur when the camera flashlight was used as a "real" flashlight / pocket light. Close the other app.

Hi all, I've got my Arc for two weeks, it seems that sometimes the camera is not available when I launch the application. It always happen when the accelerometer doesn't work. It works fine again when I reboot the phone.
Anyone else got this issue? Do I have to repair via SEUS or there is another way around?
Thanks

Nope, I used the camera many times and not even once I saw this issue. It's best to do a repair firmware to rule out that it's not a software issue. Once done and you are facing the problem, then it could be the hardware faulty and you need to bring the phone to service centre for repair.

Thanks for the quick reply, I'll try to repair using SEUS first, hopes it will work
I face this problem a lot, I'll try SEUS.

Never faced this problem Use camera many times everyday
Repair by using SEUS didn't solve the problem either unfortunately :-(

I am having exactly the same issue. Had phone 2 days now and many unstable aspects from day 1 and ongoing.
Camera is sometimes 'not available' - interestingly at the same time other things don't work such as the accelerometer.
Phone reboots randomly by itself including during phone calls.
Items downloaded from market disappear .
I am returning it and hoping for a replacement as I do not want a 'repaired' phone after paying so much.
Also should note I have made no changes to the phone at all - this is 'as delivered'
I had this happen a couple of times. When it does I just go to the app manager and force stop the camera app. It should work again after that.
Never had the problem with camera not being available... although most times my photos dont work... its like a black broken image icon that shows instead...

Thanks - Your problem must be different, as this solution does not work for me.The app manager does not show the camera as running, so no force close option is available.
Only way to get the camera to function when the phone is in this 'camera not available' mode is to reboot. Every time the camera is not available the accelerometer stops working as well - again a reboot is required to fix this
^ Yes it is, reboot solved it. But I'm curious, is it a bug or a fail hardware?
I have the same problem. The camera app fails to launch. I long press camera button and get the haptic feedback but nothing happens.
for me it's just the shutter button
never had this problem
but my camera doesn't activate when i press the shutter.
any ideas?
ps: i have vignette demo and fxcamera installed
pps: the arc camera is brilliantly EXCELLENT (coming from a G1)
ppps: the shutter button is terribly stiff
had the same problem but SEUS fix it for me by reflashing the firmware.
The phone should be awake when you press on camera button inorder the camera app to launch

Camera stays on after been used, i think its not possible to quit it with adv task killer, so i downloaded app "fast reboot pro" so test it when u get it back, and it also works with apps, i have seen that issue few times, just click to reboot and it will be good.
just a thought or two..
have you try resetting or calibrating those sensor?
or do you have any app that totally disabled rotation (not just simple rotate toogle)?
Anyone found the answer to this problem? Really annoying
I tried searching the forum, all i found were people telling each other to take out the battery or send it back to samsung...
if you find a link that covers my problem, i humbly apologize please direct me to the thread.
okay:
i bought an s3 off kijiji (craigslist equiv) the camera does not work.
I click the camera app, app loads, picture is black, then a dialog box saying camera has failed pops up, app crashes. Repeat.
So I bought a new rear camera, i put it in and guess what! same problem.
I tried every software thing i could think of (post and pre new camera). I tried different roms, CM/PA/STOCK Mod, no luck.
I tried going into the firmware service menu with a touchwiz rom and making the two firmware numbers match as in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006128
I tried going into app settings stopping the camera app and clearing the cache.
Now i am out of ideas and i seek better men/women to help me.
I have a new camera, i just bought, and the old camera.
oh before i forget: I saw the old camera work only once since i bought it, it loaded up randomly and was all glitchy green lines running down the picture. It loaded up with the front facing camera part which to me worked fine, then when i went to rear camera it did the glitchy ****.
sorry if my post is hard to read, im tired, and frustrated with this thing.
the phone is sitting here all dissassembled waiting for the next step.
are there any diagnostic tools i can dl that checks the motherboard and each camera (front, and back) individually?
nothing huh?

Sounds like hardware failure to me man,. sorry to say it. Have you used odin to bring you back to full stock? did the device come rooted?
There are 2 tests you could do (though they're probably the same). This requires you to be on a stock ROM.
From the dialler, enter:
*#0*# General Test Mode
*#7353# Quick Test Menu
Then, the choices are obvious.
Look at the board closely. Examine the traces on the board coming from the camera connections and where the camera connectors plug into the board for any signs of a white powdery substance. Dendrites will form on circuit boards and short out the associated electronics. If you don't have a warranty, it would be worth it to get some high grade isopropal alcohol and give the board a good rinse. You may even scrub the affected area with a good clean tooth brush and then flush it again. Let it dry thoroughly and then reassembly it. It would help to get some of that canned air and blow it off as well. I've had that work more than once on delicate electronics that have gone south.

using odin to bring back to full stock is the only thing ive yet to try.
When i got the phone it wasn't rooted.
I guess the last thing i will do is try the new camera with ODIN stock.
i really doubt it would make a difference.

that is the first thing i did actually. i was afraid it may of been water damage. the phone is taken apart infront of me right now. I dont see any sign of white spots. it looks clean as a whistle.
I really dont understand why its still failing even with a new camera.
DO any of you know weather If only the front camera fails will the entire camera app fail?
Also the front camera and the proximity sensor are tied together as one unit. and the proximity sensor works fine.
also ive mentioned that ive seen the camera work once. so ....I just dont know...
It's either a hardware problem (other than the camera itself), or it's a software problem. I would revert to stock & run one of the hardware tests I mentioned previously. That should rule in or out a software cause.
Update:
I used :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2363882&highlight=unroot
to unroot and go full stock...
still nothing.
i did those tests from *#7353# Quick Test Menu
it fails on both rear and front camera..And the REAR camera is the new one?!?!?! wtf.
does anyone know if one camera does not work they both dont? (since i replaced my rear camera, it may of been the front camera this whole time that didnt work.) i wish i was rich so i can buy another phone to test my hardware with.
do you think its a mainboard problem? - i guess thats all that is left.....

I experienced the same problem last few days. It started the next day I rooted the phone. I tried all the ways I found on the net, none worked for me. I even formatted the internal drive. Problem was still there.
Then I flashed Task650's AOKP rom and surprisingly the camera started to work. So I guess it maybe as stated in the forum, the driver, for some reason, was not in the correct folder. I guess flash any 4.2.2 rom will fix the problem. I am now running on liquid rom. Hope this can be a little help?
ive been on 4.2.2 PA

out of pure desperation i tried this method.
and it did not work same old message
either
gallery has failed
failed to open camera
worth mentioning:
when i am in stock rom, there is a feature that detects your eyes to make sure the screen should stay on. It works. It says it uses front camera to achive this functionality but...alas my camera does not work.
What can i do to help you help me.
im totally at a loss for words i dunno what to do
I was experiencing the problem last week on Stock Rogers ROM 4.1.1.
I tried restarting, battery pulls, formatting and taking apart the phone to disconnect/reconnect the camera.
Nothing worked and I was convinced it was a hardware problem.
As a last resort I flashed the stock Rogers 4.1.2 update and the camera started working again.
I flashed back to 4.1.1 and the camera stopped. Not sure what was causing the problem though.
If your on the new 4.1.2 bootloaders and running 4.1.1 the rear cam won't work, flash the old lk3 bootloaders.

It looks like a software problem
I had the same problem.
Rear and front Camera gave SOMETIMES "Camera Faild" error.
It looks like a software problem which uses the camera or the flash.
Many users saying that the problem is resolved after signin out from Skype.
For me the case was the Flashligt software. You can try to find out which software can be the cause.
I hope this is the problem and you all will find out the software which causes the error.

I even replaced the physical camera from another vorking S3 i747 and again nothing , reset wipe cache system start from scratch and still no go.Changed proximity sensor still no go, another SS3 Basically had to swap parts and test it to no good
Don ` t have a micro sd card , and I spent 3 days at various forums to find out how to fix the problem .
S3 is not under warranty and service shop could not help me. I deleted all the apps that use the camera as Skype and flashlight and again nothing , Camera failed .
Otherwise my S3 i535 runs on stock rom not rooted and hasn ` t been updated stilruns on 4.1.2 didn ` t go for 4.3 update . Everjthing else Works fine ekcept camera.Somebod
The video camera function on my camera is no longer working and I’m not sure why. This phone is less than 5 weeks old and I have already taken videos with it. This upsets me because I have a 4 month old that I love to record especially when it comes to his firsts. The led flash light comes on when I push the video button, the screen switches and freezes. The message saying error prompts and when I close the camera, the led light will remain on until I reopen the camera. Hopefully you can help me figure this out, many thanks!

Which indicates you have been making changes to your phone related to video. Did you remove that or are you still using it.
Without knowing what your phone condition is in, it is very possible that other changes you have made is causing the problem as well...

Most don't need to update their modem and if you installed software that modifies how your phone works, you might try turning them off or uninstalling them to see if they are the cause of your problems.

u could try booting in safe mode and test if theres any app or tweak that is causing it. or u could enter Service / Test / Hidden functions by dialing *#0*# on your phone dialer and u gonna get to the service mode and check camera itself. also theres another one of those USSD codes that brings u to check the phone gadgets hardware /firmware version to see if it same as the camera app... u could also do a full factory restore from recovery screen if nothing else works remember to do a backup first @ titanium backup.. or if you have fair tech skills u could remove the back cover and remove the battery plate and check if tje battery connectors are in place im sure u could find a note 3 tear down video around.. i had the same problem but with the frontal camera and ended up been the camera was defective and replaced it and worked like charm
I know this thread is kinda old, but since it is on the first page on google's query, I'll post a solution here (found on another site).
The solution is to turn off the phone and remove battery for 10-20 seconds. This should resolve the issue.
Some users report that the issue occurs when you charge your phone via PC or laptop USB port. So, to avoid this, prefer original charger.
thanks
thank you for replying even if the post is old! it simply worked while i was about to sell my phone ! good thing i saw your reply first!
Did you ever find a fix?
hello guys and girls
i have HTC one M8 for about two years. one day i decided to take a picture.
i open the camera app and its on the selfie mode, i tried to switch mode and i notice that my rear camera option is gone, i had only selfie and photo booth mode. checked my flash and it was not working too.
after i check the net for Solutions and i did several things, like: clear cache and data files from camera app, switch camera app, and even factory reset. but nothings help!
i decided to check the hardware so i strip down my phone check the cables and connectors.
what i have discovered is when i take the phone out of its metal back case and start it up every things work well!!
once i put it all back together it stops working again. the only thing i removed and fitted was the metal case.
i think its something with the conductors that touched the case but i cant find the Solution please help!!!
Thank you for the time share,
best regards.
Hi
I have the exact same problem as you
I have my m8 since 2014 and I'm fully happy with it, it works well
But during a party, I wanted to take a picture and the only camera I have is the rear camera or the second (2 mpxl)
I tried yo find a way out :
1/ flash a new rom, not working
2/ check the hardware, no idea
3/ change the camera : I receive a brand-new piece and I replace the camera but not working neither
So it's not a problem from camera, if you have found any solution please contact me!!

hello to all
i fixed my camera and im very happy from my phone again.
the problem for me was that when i remove the metal bake case the camera works fine, at the moment i assembly the phone back my camera not work again.
i assume that the metal case press the camera or the connectors in some way that it wont work.
so i take a piece of silicon and tape it inside near the camera, in a way that when i put back the back metal case it will make a small gap between the camera an the case.
today i am a week later and it work perfect.
i hope it will work for you all
Hi motybh4
Can you add pics where you fixed the silicon tape?
Thanks in advance

Hi guys,last week a friend of mine dropped my phone onto the ground. Some hours later i discovered that both the camera's didnt work,popping a message.I tried clearing the camera cache,but nothing happened.Later on even the torch and the notification led didnt work properly,and now i dont have idea on what i have to do.Could it be a software problem? I'm actually running ResurrectionRemix 7.1,is it worth trying to rollback to stock? I already opened the phone and checked all the connectors,and it doesnt seem that they were disconnected or anything.(at least the front camera and the back one)
Any advices?

Rolling back to stock would be my first advice , hairline fractures in PCB/circuitry wont be picked up by human eye.

If it got dropped then stopped working, that pretty much indicates a hardware problem.
