i know one babalawo who can fix em

Clear Camera App


1. From the Home screen, tap Menu.
2. Choose Settings.
3. Tap Applications Manager.
4. Swipe to choose All tab.
5. Choose Camera.
6. Tap Force Stop button.
7. Tap Clear Data button.
8. Reboot the phone.

Now, see if the camera works after this procedure. Otherwise, continue with the other procedures.
Wipe Cache Partition

For people who are familiar with Android's infrastructure, it is normal for them to suggest to wipe the partition cache. This procedure will not delete saved personal data only the ones that are commonly used by the system.

1. Turn the phone off.
2. Press and hold the Volume Up, Home and Power buttons until the phone vibrates.
3. Let go of the Power button but continue holding the Volume Up and Home buttons until Android System Recovery screen appears.
4. Press the Volume Down button to choose 'wipe cache partition'.
5. Press the Power key to select.

Once the partition cache was wiped out, the phone will automatically restart. See if the problem was solved after this.
Factory Reset Your Phone

I know it's a noob suggestion especially for new units. But according to the developer, this problem might occur if the phone was improperly setup. Thus, it would be wise to factory reset the Galaxy S4 if it starts to manifest this problem. Here's how to do a factory reset on your Galaxy S4.

NOTE: Before doing this procedure, make backups of your important data and files.

1. From the Home screen, tap the Menu button.
2. Choose Settings.
3. Tap on Accounts tab and choose Backup and Reset.
4. Tap Factory Data Reset.
5. Tap Reset Device.
6. Touch Delete All.

A factory reset could fix a lot of problems including inconsistencies between the software and the hardware. In case the problem wouldn't be resolved after this, there is no other option left but to claim a replacement unit.

Contact your provider, explain the problem, have the tech verify it and request a replacement unit.

Do a factory reset then.

Where/when did you buy the phone?

If you are able to take back facing pictures then it's most certainly a software fault which hard reset should fix.
