All i can think of is that using a silent camera is illegal in some places so, if theres a setting, turn on shutter sound.
Have you tried a camera app from play store?
Dont factory reset unless its a last resort.

Seems to be some conflicting answers out there:
https://www.google.co.uk/#q=The+security+policy+restricts+the+use+of+the+camera&safe=off
It seems to be either an issue with a company phone with Active Sync security policies set up or an entry in the efs/security folder that needs to be deleted, the later requiring root.
Disclaimer: Messing with EFS folder can seriously damage the phone - So only touch if you have a working backup!! (Trust me on this).
