Camera failure - Should I replace it?
Hello,
always if I open the camera App on my Galaxy S6 I get a message which says: “camerafailure”. I think it is no software problem because reseted my device. Now I think to replace the camera because I will replace the battery anyway, but I don’t know if it fixes the problems. Has anyone some experience with that and / or can help me?
Update (03/28/2020)
Thank you for the quick reply. I can’t remember that I dropped it the days or weeks before it stopped working. But I have two questions. If it is one camera which is not working, why is not the other cam (front or main camera) not working? Or is it closing the app because one camera is damaged. Second question: If a cable / connector to the camera is damaged I have no options to repair it or am I wrong?

So. I replaced the battery and the camera. The battery works, but the camera unfornately just shows the same errors. I think now there is not much / nothing what I can do left.
Cette question est-elle utile ?

@maze2go ... at this point, it would be down to a schematic and testing for proper voltages and continuity in flex cables. can probably find a schematic pretty easily, can upload one if youre capable and willing. if not, i would get it serviced by a tech. if youd like the schematic, please give me the model of your phone... sm-g9***

Could you send me the schematics? I have the G920F

cant upload here apparently so, here is a link that has the pdf for level 3 repair. your looking at the tshoo-7.pdf in the archive. youll see the first diagram that feeds both cameras from the main ic, then branches to companion ic, then 2 front and rear cameras. youll want to find the pins and measure the voltages. scroll down further in the pdf, find the corresponding chip and its pinouts and voltages. just follow the charts and compare. youll do fine. post back for any questions.
