Best thing to try is go back to stock firmware with Odin then test it. If it fails then it's hardware problem. Are you stock ATM? Rooted? Have you dropped it?

The rear camera does not work, I get a 'Unknown error by Error callback' message.
I've wiped the cache of the camera app, tried other camera apps ect.
What do I try next?
Thanks.

Try a Full Wipe by Deleting Everything on /sdcard.
The Option is on the Mounting Option in CWM 6 . ( Format /sdcard) .
Then just install the ROM again and it must work because it ever worked on my Phone.
Good Luck.

If its software related, a clean install should fix it (wipes+reflash firmware).
Otherwise its a hardware malfunction, so yeah, service center. (When it happened to me it was faulty camera hardware).
maybe u can search "restart camera.apk" and install like normal apk.
click the app restart camera, and open your camera phone
hope it'll working!
and if thats not solve your problem, try with another camera. focal, etc
Hi, i have a Galaxy S3 GT-19300 with a faulty camera. "Camera failed" error when i try to access it.
When i try to check the Camera Firmware via *#34971539#, i get a black screen with a grey bar at the top which says "Camerafirmware standard" , below this there no information whatsoever. After a second or two i receive a message stating "Unfortunately, factory test has stopped". The phone has never been rooted and the problem existed prior to updating to 4.3.
I've tried the following.
Clear Camera Cache
Clear partition Cache and restore phone - have restored a number of times
Reseated ribbon connector for camera
Cleared files in \Phone\Android\data\com.sec.android.gallery3d\cache (I've read this can help)
At this stage i'm not sure what to do. Does anyone know why there might not be any information displayed when trying to check the Cameras firmware? Any help would be greatly appeciated.

Do a full wipe and flash the latest stock firmware with odin. If still the same then it's a hardware fault.

Will give this a go. Thank you
No luck unfortunately, flashed successfully however the problem remains. Both front and rear cam fail in diagnostic menu so im guessing this is a motherboard fault as all other areas have been ruled out.
Same probelem

If you have the same problem then read the op it is most likely a motherboard fault (physical fault not software) it will need to go to be repaired:silly:
Today I went to use my camera and when I open the app I get a message saying "Warning Camera Failed"
I've tried
1. Clearing the Camera app cache/ data
2. Restarting
3. Power off and massaging/ smacking the back
4. Restarting in safe mode
All 4 attempts did not get rid of the error message. When I got the same message after restarting in safe mode I thought the issue might be something more technical than I could handle so that's why I'm posting.
Has anybody else had experience with this issue (Camera Failed message in safe mode)?? I'm at a loss.
Clear system cache, hard reboot.
If no go go back to factory loaded cam app version if possible.
Maybe a hardware failure or possible firmware corruption.
Malware is always a possibility.
