I get a "camera fail" message when I try to use the camera.  Any ideas on the fix for this?

So, you're in the camera interface, you line up the centering box, and press the camera button and you get that message instead of a picture?

Have you checked your gallery to see if there are camera pics there by chance?

Sounds like this could be a technical issue and you may need to contact Samsung support  (which I recommend over AT&T support because of the nature of your issue).

Good luck,
Mk

If you havent already try restarting the phone if that doesnt work shut your phone off and take out the battery for 10 seconds and restart the phone

hope that helps if not contact att and get a replacement theres nothing we can really do about it its a hardware issue

also, you can't take pics when your battery is low or your on the phone. don't know if either applies but worth a shot. let us know if you find the problem.
