    Hi folks, just wondering if anyone has experience of this problem. I received a new S6 about 2 weeks ago, set it up using Gaeilge as the preferred language and the camera will not work, if I set the language to English the camera works fine. Camera shuts down in Gaeilge option and works perfectly in English option.
    Contacted Samsung support and was advised it was a software issue and to backup and reset the phone which I did, and to no avail, problem still there.
    Anyone have a similar experience or any suggestions for a fix?

    Just tested for the craic and had the same experience.
    I'd say the only way for it to work is for Samsung to fix it. Report it as a bug officially saying their suggested fix didn't work.

    Whatever you do, don't let it get wet!!

    I got one just a few months back, and it went for a quick accidental swim. Phone was cosmetically perfect, even inside seemed dry, but some power connector died and the phone was basically a brick. AT the same time my Tesla 60w mod went for the same swim, and survived without any hassle. odd that a 'premium' phone died instantly where a cheap Chinese vape mod stood up to the water challenge!

    I managed to sell it on as a dud, the guy who bought it reckons he can fix it, fair play to him if he does. but Vodafone didn't want to know about it, it was tough s**t Paddy. Hence why I'm in here eyeing up Chinese phones :D

    The Teanga=Gaeilge "tá ceamara stoptha" issue has been fixed in Android 7.
    Have switched to Gaelige on my Samsung S6 and no issues with the camera.
    Lean ar aghaidh.
