Why won't my iPhone 4S Camera work?

Every time I open the camera it just exits out completely, then after a few tries it finally opens yet it takes like twenty tries of taking the picture and having it fail and exit out again, to take the real picture. Does anyone know how I could fix it without going to the apple store and spending another $200 on this *** phone?

Buy HTC One X for $100. They lowered the price dramatically fir contract plans. Or buy the Galaxy S3 for $100 they lowered the price after Galaxy S4 came out. Seriously get android. IPhone sucks.

Try rebooting it. If that doesn't help, try restoring the phone to factory default in iTunes-will wipe your phone, but may fix a software issue. Beyond that, you could try getting a camera app from the App Store that may work better.

  • Why won't my iPhone earbuds work on my iPhone but work fine on a computer? So I have the worst luck with earbuds and it happens to be reoccurring. I have a normal iPhone 5 and I enjoy music but when I listen to my songs only one earbud will work while the other one is dead. I can go on my computer and they will both work so I was wondering why they both won't work on my phone?
  • Why won't my flashlight & back camera work on iphone? My front camera works fine but when i try to flip the camera it won't do anything or it's just a black screen.

I did drop my phone hours before it started doing this, i don't know if that's what caused it or if it's something else. & i've already reset my phone twice & that didn't fix anything. I don't know what to do, please help.
