Hey y'all, so my camera app has been showing a "Camera Failed" pop up whenever i try to use it for a while now and I've tried everything short of doing a complete factory reset. I've completely updated my phone to the most recent update, I've reset the camera settings, cleared cache and data, restarted my phone a billion times, opened the camera in safe mode to see if another app was causing it to misbehave (it still didn't work)...
I should mention that the camera does work just fine in other apps, like in messages or Google lens or bixby vision. I even downloaded a camera app from the play store and it works just fine. But I'd rather be able to use the regular camera app since it works a lot better. Well used to. Any help?

This is what happens everything I open it. However you can clearly see that the camera is just fine, it's simply the app.

This is the messages app, where the camera works just fine.
