Samsung Galaxy S9 S8 S7 Edge S6 S5 Warning: Camera Failed FIXED. Simple steps showing how to do this

UPDATE: There is a new very simple fix, please check out my new video showing this:
• Updated! Simple Fix fo...
A common problem with Samsung Galaxy Phones is the "Warning: Camera Failed" error message when the rear camera stops working. We show you the simple steps to go through to get this fixed.
Note: I go through the possible ways to fix this in order of "least impact on your phone"... i.e. the first method doens't change anything, last method (which actually worked for me) resets some settings.

    Mine was doing this and here is something I observed and an interesting solution. Nothing I did following all the suggestions, hints, tips here on KZread and across the Web would work. I even factory reset the phone and still it happened to the point where I was considering taking it to the shop for repair. It was at this point that I noticed while going through various menus / apps etc that in the swipe down notification tray that the "torch" icon was showing it was in the "on" position i.e the icon was highlighted in blue but no amount of pressing it would cancel it however the LED camera flash was not physically on that is to say there was no light shining. I have the "All In One" toolbox app installed whereupon it gives you the option to install a Torch plugin so I decided to give it a go and installed it. The torch plugin gives you two options to control the main front screen which it lights up as a bright plain white wallpaper and the other option to actually control the camera flash LED with an on / off toggle button. I turned on the LED and it lit up (as per a torch) and turned it off. I then checked the "torch" icon in the notification drop down menu and it had switched off and wasn't highlighted in blue. I then clicked the camera and it switched back on and returned to normal operation. So that was my discovery and it worked, so hope that helps anyone.

    Thanks heaps for this!!! My camera also failed today, just 3 days after purchasing the phone. Before fixing the problem with your help (the last method also worked for me), I contacted the Samsung support and they actually told me to just return the phone where I bought it, since they could not help me. Pretty unbelievable - such tools!!!

However, after turning off my phone for the night and then turning the phone back on the next morning, the error came back! I was wondering if you had any other suggestions. Yes, I reset it back to factor setting and that didn’t work either. If I download another camera app from Google Play would that work? If so, got any recommendations for that app?

    The last suggestion worked, thank you. Although I hope this won't be an ongoing issue. From your experience on your previous Galaxy was this the case? As for your enquiry, You - are not the guy. You're not capable of being the guy. I had a guy, but now i don't. 😉

    I got my galaxy j5 last week and I had this problem too. When I restart my phone camera works but than it failed again . Why this happens , if I try one of your steps is camera going to work always and not having problem anymore?
