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.

Long story: Went in, got my Vibrant, immediately downloaded a few apps to play/test the device in the store. I got handcent and barcode scanner. Went home, tried rooting phone, couldn't get into the recovery menu. Gave up on rooting for the moment and tried to download launcher pro, and immediately after it started the download it gave me a "download unsuccessful" error, regardless of whether I was connected via 3G or Wifi. I then tried downloading several other apps and got the same error. Afterwords, I tried clearing the market's cache, signing in/out of Google Talk, uninstalling the apps I had originally downloaded, rebooting the phone; nothing worked (and I was unable to reinstall the apps I had managed to install in the first place, due to the same error).
I then attempted a factory reset and was unable to do that, given the error "No reset was performed because the System Clear service is unavailable." After going through tech support through everything I did, they asked me to do a hard reset of the phone, which I didn't realize used the same recovery menu as one must access to root the phone. Since I couldn't get into the recovery menu for whatever reason (I blamed my fingers at the time), I was told to go back to the store to swap my phone out for a new one. Did that, repeated the app downloading process but didn't connect it to anything other than a car charger, and the app store gave me the same error, and I'm again unable to perform a factory reset or a hard reset. I know it's not my fingers, though, because I was able to get into the recovery menu of a display phone at the store.
I'm going back to the store tomorrow to swap my SIM out, since tech doesn't know what else to do with it, but I was wondering if you guys had any input.
Short story: First symptom was all market downloads failed with error: Download unsuccessful. Second symptom was inability to perform a factory reset or a hard reset. Possible causes/solutions?
To fix the download unsuccessful error go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications, then tap menu, select "Filter", select "All". Scroll down to Download Manager, select it. Tap "clear data".
That should resolve it. Found that somewhere on here and i I haven't had that error since. As for the other... Make sure you're holding down BOTH volume keys at the same time. I screwed that up at first because I thought it was a rocker switch and not two individual switches.
That seems to have fixed it! Thanks!
I have a Pantech Burst that I just upgraded to ICS just yesterday. When I tried to go to contacts I could not get into it and would continue getting the "android.process.acore" error over and over. I looked this up and I have multiple times Factory Reset, cleared cache or data, uninstalled and reinstalled the app, etc. None of these worked. Clearing data let it go to the screen for a little longer before I got the error message again. I have no idea what to do to get this fixed. Anyone able to help?
Just to make things simple. Pantech Burst>android.process.acore error when going to contacts.

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?
Hi, am new to this forum.
I was facing issue with 'Handsfree activation' appearing whenever the device was started.
To avoid Handsfree activation from appearing, i Renamed lgstartupwizard.apk to lgstartupwizard.apk.bak (using boot browser) and restarted my device. (As suggested in youtube)
Issue started from this point, My device display LG logo and display 'security error authentication fail #9' error message.
Issue am facing the most is, have some valuable data (Photos, video and data) stored in my mobile, hence have not tried factory reset in recovery mode (because it would erase all data).
I tried with wipe cache partition from recovery mode, but could not solve the issue.
I tried using LGMobileSupport tool, but since my PC is NOT able recognise my device, this tool could not help.
Could someone please help me getting my device back to normal with all data recovered.
Am not Android developer, but can learn with simple steps mentioned.
Hey.... i do not see any reply.... does it mean that have messed with my device a lot and could not be rectified???
Hello, I rooted my Note 4 about 2 years ago and never installed any custom ROM nor have I installed a custom recovery. It had been android 5.0.1. Recently, I decided to unroot and finally update it to 6.0.1. I then used ODIN and flashed the official firmware on sammobile. Everything went well with ODIN and the flash was complete. However, once my device rebooted, there was an error where it says "Device does not have DRK, please install DRK first..." and then there was an "error" in the middle of the screen. After 10 min, I removed the battery and manually reset the phone. Once my Note 4 booted back up, everything seemed fine, but i had this constant "unfortunately cloud agent has stopped" msg. Also, I noticed each time I opened the Gallery app, it would crash and the same "unfortunately cloud agent has stopped" would pop up. I tried to force stop the CloudAgent and gallery in my application manager but the issue continued to persist. When I would go into the settings under application settings, simply by clicking the gallery option will crash the settings app. Even my camera app would crash and have the same msg when I click the gallery preview on the bottom right. I read online that it was an issue with dropbox, but nothing changed. Finally, I decided to factory reset and wipe the cache partition my phone through recovery. I then noticed both DRK and Dm-Verity Verification Failed msg in red on the bottm of the recovery menu. Restarted the phone and everything seemed fine until I noticed the "unfortunately cloud agent has stopped" msg again. Not only that, when I try to turn NFC down in the setting, the setting app itself would crash. Tried factory resetting the phone a couple of time but the issues were still there. I also noticed that each time that I would reset my phone, there was the "Android is starting..." green screen that appears as if I was doing updating my phone. I tried re-installing the firmware with ODIN again, but I still had the same issues. I tried using smart switch to re-install the firmware but once i get my phone in download mode, Smart Swtich cant recognize my phone. Here we are now, I can use my phone, but I cant open the gallery app to see my photos, I cant turn off nfc in the settings, I have both DRK and Dm-Verity Verification Failed msg in recovery and I get the green Android is starting screen every time I restart the phone. Any help would be a miracle xD
I forgot to mention this, but before flashing the firmware, I forgot to reinstall some bloatware/Samsung apps that came with the, it might be related. I did back them up with titanium backup tho.
Some specs:
SM-N910W8 (Bell), I unlocked it and use it with Fido
Android 6.1.1
