samsung galaxy camera failure

[Android Question]

hi i have a samsung galaxy s3 and I am very sure that my phone was never in contact with water or any physical damage. everything on my phone works except the camera so I send it back to samsung for repair and they have send it back saying that its beyond repair because of the liquid damage and my warranty dosent work for replacing with another phone. Can this phone be still fixed? suggestions please.

I know that, years ago a common problem in humid regions was that the moisture pad could turn simply due to the general humidity. I guess that's still possible if a phone is used in say, a still humid bathroom (as my missus does with hers ).

Sounds like the issue is the camera unit. If you google strip downs for your model, you may be able to work out if that part can be replaced - I guess it's possible it is attached in a way that would prevent replacement.
