I have came across the same issue. I went through the hard way by uninstalling the applications I have dowbloaded one by one to test which application actually cause the issue.
I found that my root cause of the camera failed is go flashlight widget.

I have the same app installed !
thank you buddy , i really appreciate your help

Dudebro.
I was JUUUUUST about to sit down and start reviewing all the apps I use that might cause this issue - and then i clicked one more link, this'n.
THANK YOU! I'm going on vacation with my wife and kids in three days, and I was dreading spending time at T-Mob the day after Christmas.
I hope you get everything you want and MORE tomorrow. Happy Holidays!

[Q] Nexus 10 running like a slug

My Nexus 10 has started running like a slug at times. Rebooting does not help. Last night I upgraded to 4.3 and it still seems to be an issue. This device is stock.
Any suggestions?
Try a custom ROM or kernel. Or both. You can always go back..

No idea. At least he's not TOTALLY trolling - the New Nexus 10 SHOULD be fantastic.

It worked fine up until last week. Then it would go through spells of slugginess. I would reboot, and it would seem fine for about 10 minutes and get sluggy again. I figured it was an app action up and I was going to set it on born on date and start all over. I put the 4.3 on it thinking that might help, but it still had issues. The next day, all was fine. It has only been two days of working fine, so who knows, but i am happy again.
Looking at some posts in this thread, I will assume that you are not happy with yours and have been very vocal about it.
What are your issues?
you name it ...
i am waiting for Sabermod 4.3 ... they could make this more acceptable , again

Camera failed on SM-G900H

Hi, yesterday my camera stopped working. I've seen this googling it, but I always come up with Verizon phones. Mine is factory unlocked. Also all information I came up with, was from April. Any ideas on these? I'm not home, I'm on vacations and these really sucks as I can not take anymore pictures.

Not only you, Sometime me and other users also faced this problem..
When I heavily used my phone and too many application running in background, on that time I faced this issue..
But after restart the device, problem gone.
I have hard reset it and still have same problem. I think tomorrow I will go to samsung and see what they tell me. I will post it

Please share your knowledge on Galaxy SVIEW service. I have a strange problem on my phone, the SVIEW flashes when I am on a call or when I turn on mobile data WITHOUT SVIEW case.
I thought it was a problem with SIM but not..
I need to start somewhere to avoid this issue since nobody is helping me on the help threads posted earlier..
Devs, pls suggest some tips..
Thanks

Many people have this thing bugging them for months or weeks now..
Either use any rom NON TOUCHWIZ.
Or just go to Application Manager-->All-->com.sec.android.sviewcover
And turn it off a few times..like 3-4 times by going there again and again..
This problem will be solved.
In addition..open the back cover..and you cane remove the screw named L1.
This has been a solution for many too.
Plus there is also an Xposed Module for this..Magnet Off.

I have had Samsung replace the mainboard and screen without fixing the problem.
I found that setting mobile network to WCDMA only fixed the problem permanently for me.
When on EDGE and gaming our using BBM I would get the sview clocks flash intermittently.

S4 no sound

okay so im going to start from scratch, my s4 has randomly started giving me no sound, ive had it tested and all my components are good so it has to be software.
i have flashed multiple roms, modems and wifi fix
but im willing to give anything a go just let me know!
beginning to really stress me out! i have included a pic of my current setup, cheers and thanks for the help!
does no one have a clue on this?
i was thinking maybe wait for the lollipop update and it may sort itself out?
or flash another stock rom and gsm modem only?
i have already triggered knox so not really worried about the method, anything would be of great help!

Im not sure what's goin on . It might be a Hardware issue? Try pulling the battery out / factory reset/ wipe data in recovery . If its still.doing the same issue . Wait And Let see what firmware @Joku1981 will give you . It might fix this problem . Anyways Goodnite for now .
Yes sorry to disturb you, I've had my device tested it's been going on that long it all came back okay :/ thanks a lot it's definitely improved!

factory reset no luck, cache wipe no luck, battery pull no luck, i was thinking try flash a stock rom? have a feeling ive got a few duff ones, any recomendations?
Whether it helps or not apart from no sound, videos play in slow motion, battery when unplugged from fully charge drops to around 80% and sometimes when the phone is booted it boots with no signal and a black top bar, before restarting again normally
