I bought a brand-new Samsung Galaxy S22 from Samsung this week. Last night, I used the phone camera to both 1) take photos through Instagram and 2) take a video call with WhatsApp. I did not turn off the phone over night and as far as I am aware, the phone did not update or restart.

As of this morning, the camera completely fails to work. The app crashes and gives "Warning: Camera failed" on each attempted launch, and other apps with permission to use the camera cannot use it either. I have tried using the camera in safe mode (still fails) and have cleared the cache and data and restarted multiple times, all to no avail. I have also reset to default settings.

I am really at a loss here. Did Samsung sell me a faulty product? It worked 12 hours ago and the phone has taken on no physical damage that I can see. Insanely frustrating and I've been through all of the (mostly AI-generated and spammy) help pages, all of which offer the same tips that don't work. Does anybody have a solution?
