Samsung SM-N910H Camera Failed - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys,
Please does anyone knows what i can do about my N910H which i placed order for the front Camera and rear camera but i discovered the camera was meant for N910F after receiving it, error message is "Camera Failed" the old camera was blur due to accidental damage, i need your technical advice,i can't sleep right now please
Thanks.

note 4 is very picky with which camera it accepts...i tried to replace a camera on one note4 910f and even tho the replacement was for 910f the camera still didnt work. You can try returning the one you got and try a different one.

[Q] My front facing camera is not working!

I think my front facing camera is broken or the file is corrupt, but every time I try to use the front facing camera, it just freezes, no messages saying there are errors! Please help me determine whether the front facing camera is broken or a file may be corrupt.
I think it happened after I tried to root it, but I rooted it incorrectly and so I think it may have been from bad rooting. BUT, I did drop my phone on concrete two days after I rooted incorrectly. During that time, I didn't try to use the front facing camera until a week after.
Thank you!

Looks like the camera is damaged. Needs to be replaced.

S4 i9506 both cameras not working (tried everything i could find)

Hello there to all.
I´m newly registered to the forum, although i´ve been using it to search, learn and use roms in my Samsung s3 for some time now.
I´ve bought recently a used S4 i9506. At the time i tested several key points of the device to check if it was all working, however (and don´t ask me why because i cant explain it), i completely forgot to test the cameras.
My problem is the following. Everytime i try to access the camera it says that camera failed or something like server connection failed. I´ve tried every single resolution i could find on the internet and so far all failed to solve it. The problem seems to be in both cameras, i think, because when i try the code *#0*# both Mega cam and front cam give error. Here´s what i tried so far:
- Soft Reset/Hard Reset/factory reset;
- Cleared cache both from boot and manually erasing cache from com.sec.android.gallery3d;
- Tried 3rd party camera apps from GooglePlay;
- Tried the RestartCamera.apk;
- Tried 3 different firmwares for i9506;
- Tried rooting it and then flashed several different roms;
- Switched the rear camera with a new i9506 rear camera module that i bought;
- I cant also test the cameras, because when i use the code *#34971539# they bring a menu on which i can´t use almost every option (see image);

Anyone have any other possible resolution?
I´m thinking on maybe buying a front camera module. Could that do the trick? Could the front facing camera not working properly make the rear camera fail as well?
Thank you for the attention to all who took the time to read.
So far 60 people read and nobody answered. ... is it because you don´t know what else i can do? I´ve been reading the problem may be from the motherboard. What can i do on the motherboard to make things right?
Thanks again
Be patient my friend someone will answer soon
Hi,
I've got the same problem with my s4mini. Both cameras aren't working and all the solutions you explained don't solve it.
I'm thinking about buying another S4mini with broken Display in order to change the motherboard. This might be the only possibility to solve this......

Hey there m8.
I know the feeling, right?!
The thing is that for a faulty i9506 model i could almost buy myself another motherboard and mount it, but i was hoping to find some other solution, maybe even some electronics expert opinion on what i could do in the motherboard to make it work again. There are some videos on youtube that teaches how to change some components on the motherboard to solve problems like dead smartphone or constant auto reboots. Also, finding a faulty i9506 model isn´t as easy as finding a regular S4. :crying:
Thx for sharing the problem and for the opinions,
and greetings from Portugal
Today i've changed the mainboard aaaaaaand -> cameras still not working
So i started to change the front cramera and the ear-brightness-sensor from the old s4 mini with the broken screen into my working one. And now both cameras are working again!:good:
I think the cause is most likely the brightness sensor which is combined with the ear speaker. This could explain why both cameras are not working.
I'm not completely sure due to i changed the front camera also. However changing the main camera did not do anything as mentioned above.
Maybe i should mention: A few weeks ago i've changed the earspeaker-brightness-unit because the speaker wasn't working anymore. Right after this both cameras stopped working.

Thank you for the update on your situation m8. That could be some relevant information there. Can anyone confirm if the sensor is the same for all s4 models? If so i could find more easily one from another s4 model and try it, for the sake of desperation.
cheers

Gt-i9505 camera failed? anyone ever found a solution ?

Ok camera failed I have tried.
EVERYTHING lol
#force stop wipe cache date etc
if i enter the code *#34971539# on 5.01 stock rom
I get "unfortunatly, Camera test has stopped working error?
Im totaly at my wits end here and running out ideas, heard its a hardware problem? anyone ever found a fix?
thanks
Is it the front or rear camera?
If it is rear, I would but a replacement from eBay. Changing the rear camera is very easy.
Both they both fail?
Both cameras fail on a Custom ROM too? Tried reloading a stock ROM with Odin? If these things don't work, I would try replacing the cameras.
Were will i get stock 4.4.2 uk? havent tried roms
Look at samsung-updates.com or sammobile.com for stock firmware.
Ok here is what I have done!
Went back to stock still the same.
Purchased new rear and front camera
Took old back out put new one in back camera worked,
Switched to front and camera failed.
So switched front camera tot he new one purchased and still camera failed.
Seems who ever had this phone before me(purchased from ebay) with broken camera, had already been in and tried changing the back camera because obviously was the wrong model.
I am now left wondering if the front cmaera I purchased and the one that was in were the wrong type?
GT-I9550
back camera that came out has the follwing: GT-I9500 R12. On the other side SLD2 25b G
front camera following: I9500-92 1314 G
As you can see they from the i9500 I cant be bothered to tare the phone back down to check the reference for the new front camera, but does anyone know which I should be getting for my uk GT-I9505.
Thanks.
Is there front camera for the 9505 too? If it is and it doesn't work, it's possible the front replacement is defective. If you know the front camera works, it's possible that something is wrong with the motherboard.

Camera Unknown Error

Hi,
Got a confusing issue with the rear camera on a galaxy s7 edge.
This is a new flash of the OS
Nothing has been installed on the device as yet.
I can take pictures with the front camera no problems. . On the rear camera I can view what it's looking at and it will focus too but when I've taken a picture it comes up with an unknown error then the phone restarts.
I've reflashed the firmware for this model as well as clearing the cache.
I've since this have replaced the camera with a NEW one and now it wont even open the camera as it shows an error.

Camera failed

Hi all, flashed S7 EDGE on U which is 10 the loader, and ceased at once to work that is the camera ( camera failed ) and flashlight is also not working. Put the camera even new and still not working, blinking flashlight works when uvedomlenie.
Not sure what uvedomlenie might be and when you say you [put the camera even new and still not working], I'm assuming that means you installed a new camera? If that is the case it might be a good idea to recheck connections. As I recall, the flex cable for the camera snaps in beneath the motherboard and may be prone to come loose if not careful. I don't think the firmware version flashed has anything to do with camera app issues. It sounds like hardware, and that would be the actual camera.
