I had exactly the same problem with camera. I've used wave files from above post and it worked.

CE147F01.bin
CE147F02.bin
CE147F03.bin

Iam So Happy it works

Ok Mr. Super Tipp.
It really worked. i tried everything before, wiping, flashing, reseting, other roms. nothing worked.

the bin files in the wave firmware are the conclusion.

-Download and Unzip the file ( 4 bin files)
-With root explorer copy the 4 bin files into: system/firmware (replace old ones)
-And then "Phone to CAM FW write"
-After the reboot the cam works again

Thanks, thanks thanks.

Hi to all,

Because the root explorer it's not free....!!!!

    I already repair my camera with files from wave

    Finally Fixed

    I've finally managed to fix my back camera in Galaxy S i9000 after a few weeks of trying, giving up and trying again. I remember messing it up when i was updating my phone with Odin for the first time. I was trying to install FROYO, the guide said to do the "Phone to Cam" thingy and BOOM, camera busted. The front cam was working, but the rear cam was giving me a "Camera Failed" error each time I've tried to take a photo (and the screen was black obviously).

    Here's how I've done it:

    I've used the firmware from samsung wave from the firmware_wave archive rs787 l3.rapidshare.c om/#!down load|787tg|445878056|firmware_wav e.7z|569 (remove the spaces, can't post links, sorry :)

    The funny thing is, I've tried to flash the cam with this firmware before (on many different versions of Eclair, Froyo and Ginger, even on my current ROM), but it didn't work. It even made things worse. After putting wave files into the system/firmware, Phone to Cam and a reboot, my front cam ceased to work as well. after re-flashing the phone firmware front cam came back, but rear was still busted.

    So here's what i did.

    1. I reflashed my phone with Ginger (2.3.4, JVQ (i was using this rom for a while, even trying to fix camera on it with wave files, so the ROM seems not to matter).
    2. Rooted it
    3. Installed ES File Explorer (so i could edit, switch and replace system files)
    4. Put files from firmware_wave.7z to the system/firmware folder.
    5. Reboot! (this is one thing i haven't done in my previous attempts)
    6. Press *#7412364# and select Phone to cam write.
    7. Wait for the flashing to end, then reboot again.
    8. Now it should work correctly.

    So there are two differences between the successful attempt and the failed ones (at least these two i can remember).

    1. Point (5.), reboot after copying the files!
    2. As far as i remember every previous attempt was done with Sales Code in the phone left unchanged after the flash (it was usually XEU or KOR afaik.). This time I've changed it to XEO (first thing i've done just after re-flashing Gingerbread), which is my Galaxy's original sales code. You might have to change it to Your country's original code.

    Ok. That's it. Quite a long post, but i was trying to reproduce here all of the circumstances and steps that led to fixing the problem, instead of just a "HA, FIXED IT, THX" :) I hope this wall of text can actually help someone.

    Ok the best fix is flashing the Wave CamFW

    ROOT REQUIRES

    1.Install RootExplorer
    2.Delete the files in system/firmware
    3.Copy the files (from download) in system/firmware
    4. Enter *#34971539# and Click on "Phone to CAM FW Write"
    5.Wait for "Update Succesfull"
    6.Reboot and feel Happy

    (Worked with Galaxy S bought in July 2011)

    и тут ты :D подумал может тут кто-то пытался разными прошивками или ещё какие рецепты попробовать... где-то здесь встретил, похожая ситуация, прошивка на jpm помогла. jpm качается, а так уже штук 6 разных лил, бестолку.

    ?????????????
