• The last option is to clear the cache partition. This should fix the camera failed error that’s showing up on the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 screen. To do this, turn off the Note 8. Press and hold the Home, Power, and Volume Up buttons simultaneously. Then after a few seconds, let go of the button until the Android System Recovery screen shows up.
