Take a current iCloud backup of the device, then restore to factory and set it up as new, not from a backup. Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support


If the camera still acts like it is now, blinking on and off, then you need to schedule service. Use the Get Support link at the top of the page here to contact Apple, or if you have an Apple Store close by, you can call and make a Genius Bar appointment to have the device examined by Apple. Either way, they will explain your options.
