Warning : Camera Failed - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello XDA
How are you ?
I have a phone S5(SM-G900F).
What happened is that suddenly I started to get camera failed warning once i open the camera app ... And it force the camera app to shut... Even it happens when i try to use snapchat backcamera ( front one work fine ).
I searhed for a fix and i did everything ( FR, delete cache, chanhed app) nothing helped.. So i decided to check the firmware for the camera ... I found some are written as null for the rear camera i dont know why ??any one know of any way to solve this?
Thanks

[help request] Cam starting error

hi,
i installed some apps like bsbtweaks.. after a day i realised my cam app only work after first mins of reboot , if i run app and try to open cam it says like : failed to setup cam etc.
this is my first experience on hd2 and wm, what can i do to solve this problem ? thanks , btw i can edit registry or system files =)
offical and last firmware.
Disable all extra modes and resolutions for camera in BSB. Those extra modes needs more RAM, which is usually only available after start, and/or when no other application is running (Opera 10 is known to eat almost all RAM for example).
thank you , i have already disabled them but it was still not working , then i found a registry entry that says " deactivate" in cam settings and set it to 0 , cam is working for now in full ram , but i am still test-ng if it is going to be ok.
If push comes to shove, a hard reset usually fixes most issues !
I am getting errors again ... any ideas ? not hard reset please =)

Message Camera failed (echec appareil photo) on my camera app

Hello,
Since many days, i have the message "Camera failed" (echec appareil photo in french) when i open the camera app on my mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo (GT-I9301I).
When i press "OK", the app closes.
Android version : 4.4.2
Current Build number version : KOT49H.I9301IXDUAOF2
I did many tests to solve the problem : install others camera app, factory data reset, install other official french roms or last other country roms from sammobile.com,... but each of them without success.
My mobile is under warranty but the Support Center Samsung near home doesn't want take in charge because my mobile has the micro usb connector broken (the electric charging works but usb connection to pc doesn't works). In detail, they can send it but first I will received a paying quotation (60€ approximately) for the unit broken (micro-usb).
On the other hand, i saw a solution on xda-developers.com was to flash the rom by Odin, but i cannot use this because my micro usb is broken and it is not recognized by any PC. The roms in the early tests was installed after having added them on my sd card inserted in my phone.
To finish, when i install a last camera app from Google play, i noticed that the camera in front works but not the camera in back.
Considering all these items, Does anyone has a solution to solve my camera problem on the Galaxy S3 Neo and more generally on my android ? Do you think my camera at the back should be changed? Sorry for my english. Thanks in advance.

your comment is..... stupid
it really working !!!! why i posting a solution ,

For me It doesn't work. I did all the steps in several different combinations. With India 16s, India 19s roms. My fingerprint sensor probably is dead because of hardware problem. It has always been problematic. Only thing I havent tested lately is India 15s rom or something like that rom. I remember it used to resurrect fingerprint sensor for me some half a year ago.
If your fingerprint take photo this method is good
I can't create the leeco account. I have the rom installed, but it keeps throwing server error in my face...
Skip leeco account
For me the solution to get fingerprint working is very simple but first do not touch the fingerprint calibration ever because it ruins every thing ( sorry for my english )
1 : your phone must be on stock rom
2: reboot your phone
3: go to app management ---> com.qualcomm.qt.biometrics.fingerprint.service and do clear data and cash and force stop
4: restart the phone
5: go again to app management ---> com.qualcomm.qt.biometrics.fingerprint.service and just do clear data and cash
6: wait 5 minutes so the phone can cool down, the temperature must be under 30 c .
7: try to add fingerprint and you'll be surprised
