Error: Camera not available - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys!
When I open the camera app from the lock screen sometimes I get the following error message:
"Error: Camera not available"
With the .434 stock rom never happened but with the .253 German and Singapore and even .307 Hong Kong stock rom gives me the error.
Does anyone know how to fix it?
Thx in advance!

I already post this one on different section though... Stock 253

It happens when you are in the album via Camera, it means, after taking a shoot and you check the "preview" and you dont close the album properly this happens, You need to close the preview properly and the camera will be fine after that

i'm sorry for asking this..
do you flashed a firmware before upgrade android version?
as singapore customized firmware contains whatsapp, foursquare out of box if i'm remembered.
and does not include play books, play movies and music unlimited.

Those are only pre-installed apps. I too found it out of the box. After updating through Sony PCC, those apps are gone. Also you can just flash this to update to 4.1.2 instantly.

Backup your data and go ahead.
I can't flash the rom posted my TS as Emma says my device needs to be unlocked (though i know it doesn't have to be). Have reinstalled the programme 3x but to no avail! Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Emma can only be used in unlocked devices.
Just download flashtool and use that

[Stock FW][LT25i] Xperia V 9.1.A.0.492 Generic (Taiwan)

Sony did not update the Xperia V in Taiwan to the original 9.1.A.0.490 Jelly Bean firmware. Instead, the update went straight over to the new 9.1.A.0.492 firmware, which I have made into an FTF in the link below. Firmware includes some regional apps, all of which can be uninstalled.
EDIT: It is pretty obvious that the .492 firmware is not a large update in any sense, and could very well be a regional push-out update with minor bug fixes. On personal experience, I have not had any SOD issues (though I haven't had that on the old ICS firmwares either), but the weather widget still causes menu stutters and the Walkman app still has glitches in playback when switching tracks (long pauses).

I just hope that the bugs in .490 is being fixed with this new update.

for me this fw still have SoD. I go back to telenor FW, cause it's no SoD
I do not know if this happened to you guys, but I can't connect to my telco's data network using this ROM.
I'll be playing around with another kernel with this ROM and see how it'll turn out to be...
Edit> I just realised I need to manually set my telco's APN for this. Now it appears to be fine for now.

no connection with ADB - according to flashtool, when I plug the phone in it says that ADB is off. If I don't have Sony PC companion open, the phone doesn't get recognized at all.

how's this new Firmware?
the .490 firmware have this Walkman bug that annoyed me a lot.. did the .492 had it fixed?
No bug is still here
All bugs still there, radio seems worse (new baseband in .492), at least in Europe...

6602 does not support LTE.
However 6603 and 6602 can use the same firmware.
I do not think flashing this firmware to a 6602 will make it magically support LTE.
Kind regards, Stefan.

Yes, i also think so
But the hardaware between 6602 and 6603 was no different,
Has anyone tried it?
Funny that my XZ was C6603 (Singapore). The phone change to C6602 after I flash Thai stock rom. I will try to flash original stock rom back again. I will inform later for how it can change back to C6603 or not.

PC Companion not offering update for 4.2.2

I flashed my Xperia ZR from 4.2.2 to 4.1.2 (C5503_10.1.1.A.1.310_GLOBAL-LTE.ftf) found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2384512
But now the phone itself nor the pc companion software is not offering me an update to 4.2.2 firmware.
When I first got the phone then pc companion automatically offered an update to 4.2.2 but not anymore.
Is there an easy fix to get the OTA update working? thanks!
First of all, why did you flash from 4.2.2 back to 4.1.2??
Well... following the same thread in your link, you can manually flash it back to 4.2.2 when your OTA is not working.

i wanted to root 4.1.2 and then get it updated to 4.2.2 while keeping the root.
anyway i already have manually flashed to 4.2.2 but still waiting for a possible solution.
and i really would like to know the reason why C5503_10.1.1.A.1.310_GLOBAL-LTE.ftf did not offer me any updates.
You can follow the instruction in this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2392865
No promises though!
Hi,
I have a ZR with the unmodified stock 4.1.2 firmware. PC companion still hasn't offered the 4.2.2 update for me. The customization region of my phone is generic Hong-Kong. Has anybody with the Hong-kong region got the update yet?

I had the Hong Kong version until a day ago I didn't receive the new update and couldn't be bothered waiting so was forced to try out flash tool and flash the Nordic version of 4.2.2

is it true that the pc companion never actually checks the actual firmware version of your phone but instead relies on the data stored in a server, which keeps record of your phones mac address and the latest upgrade done to that phone with that specific mac address?
since my first upgrade was from 4.1.X to 4.2.2 through pc companion then the server stored information stating that my phone with MAC address xyzc has been upgraded to 4.2.2 and wont offer any more upgrades unless something newer than 4.2.2 is released. even if i downgraded back to 4.1.2- according to the server's records my phone "was flasehd" and still "must be" using version 4.2.2.
atleast that is what i read somewhere

Try PC companion. As of yesterday I have tested the 4.1 versions of HK, RUSSIA, GLOBAL firmware to see which ones will receive 4.2 update. Only RUSSIA firmware updated to 4.2 via PC Companion.

Can you please let me know how to find out what firmware my phone has? I think mine was imported from Hong Kong but I'm not sure. I didn't even know there was a global version. There was a post somewhere with some service menu commands to list firmware but that was just a string of numbers, I could not tell that it was global or Nordic or hong Kong... Thanks!

I don`t have this problem, but i didn`t update via pc companion , i flashed the new 4.3 FTF with flashtool ..anyway if your phone is branded and/or you don`t have 4G on your carier you may not have LTE on network selection .. Sorry for my english ..
Yeah thanks! I downloaded the nordic rom for my c5503 and then flashed it. Happy to see that the LTE connection choice is back. Must be a c5502 software that was realeased for the middleeast version. Thanks anyway!
