Help Camera not avaliable - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This apper to my gf xperia sp before the update, so we wait for 4.3 to fix it but after the update with pcc camera still didnt working, some user on facebook group told me that i need to.shutdown the flashlight but even flashlight.arent working, I already tried to restart, erase dsta and config and use another camera even I installed some camera.apk from xda of 4.1.2 but nothing work, I hope you can help me, thanks
I compared this with something on my own sp, when.i have 4.1.2 tried to.install movies.apk but from z series just compatible with 4.3 and my movies app disappear so i just wait for.the update.to fixit but after 4.3 via pcc notjing changed, so i installed a 4.3 movies apk and now.is working so i think pcc doesnt fix corrupted apps when update the phone

may be you need to flash official firmware ftf file using flashtool and check whether the problem has been fixed. looks like some apk files have gone missing from /system/app folder. flashing might help getting those files back. ( cameracommon.apk, cameraextensionpermission.apk, semccamera3D.apk, semccameraUI.apk etc.)
If flashing doesnt fix it then its surely some hardware issue and might need to take it to service center

Now I flashed but didnt camera didnt work that means is hw issue? But why if never drops
btw the dsc qx-10 can work without the native camera from the sp?

Doesnt matter. It resets the entire phone so the build doesnt matter. Unless the problems only occur with 266

Unable to Update any Zips on my ZL

hey guys!! facing a weird problem here.. a few days back I saw the call record option on Z forum & I thought I'll give it a shot on my ZL. My phone is rooted with a locked bootloader & CWM installed. While replacing the files for call record function, as soon as I pasted it in the system folders, my phone hit a reboot. I then tried the zip file instead in CWM but it reboot ed again halfway while booting... I thought maybe the feature isn't compatible and that's why it would be rebooting like this.. But now I realise that I try to update anything then the phone behaves the same. As soon as I give RW permission to ES file explorer it reboots. The worst of all, I was trying to install the .253 OTA update & even that couldn't install and I guess it's for the same reason.. Also whenever my phone boots up, it shows the that the phone is updating.. I need to rectify this.. any inputs guys? please help!!
I am indeed sorry to post it on Z forums but I had no other option as I was getting no support on this in ZL forums.. can anyone help pls?

Try rerooting, failing that flash your backup or start from scratch.

[Q] [HELP] XPERIA V Restart/Crash Issues

Hi I humbly ask for your help for my xperia V, Its my first time to use android and my current phones are iPhone and Blackberry and never had issues like this.
My xperia V phone is not rooted and has the updated firmware of 9.1.1A something. Hongkong Phone, Has the updated firmware from the box, so everytime I restore/factory reset, no need for updates.
My problem is my phone keeps crashing and restart like crazy 2-3 days ago. I downloaded an app named 'Root External 2 Internal SD' without even realizing my phone is not rooted because its my first time. And after that maybe the crashes started, everytime I restart, restore, my phone is just the same nothing changes. Restart after 1-5 mins and sometimes now crash when I am navigating around. In airplane mode, the phone works great and its not dying or anything, also I can use the phone as an mp3 player, camera, wifi, all good.
I just want an opinion from an expert I will post videos too, if needed.
My questions:
1. Did this app 'Root External 2 Internal SD' killed my phone because it was not rooted?
2. Do I need to root the phone to a fresh new ROM ?
3. If I dont need to root the phone(Warranty is not an issue) How do I restore it fresh from its stock Rom/Old ROM I feel I damaged it because of that application?
Any suggestion will help, please help me!!

There was no error in reset and factory reset because when it finishes up until the menu then it will start crashing. Does battery affect the ROM? Battery is in discharge. Airplane works like a charm. For now I use it like an Ipod touch. Wifi works, gps, all of the other stuff works except on Phone mode.
Im new I cant post screenshots

I have the same problem on Xperia T. I found that it stops reseting with baseband version last digits 57 and just loses the connection. On every other version of baseband it resets or falls in SoD.
I have the same problem in my XV..it works like a charm when it is in Airplane mode.
pls help

XPERIA SP - 12.0.A.1.257 (Rooting)

I recently got the XPERIA SP(C5303) and I've been wondering whether I should root it or not.
From the information I've gathered currently, I can see a lot of people are having issues.
My main question is..
Is it worth rooting?
What are the pro's and con's of rooting this specific device (Xperia Sp)?
For example, will rooting disable the offline charging features?
What other aspect of the phone will be unavailable if I root..?
I really want to root but these problems are holding me back.
Can anyone reassure me?
Thank you very much.:good:

Despite the issues some uses face I would say rooting has more in favour for than against.
Before rooting you can use flashtools to backup your ROM into a ftf file so you can use of you don't like it.

i dont see why not ROOT such a great piece of hardware...
I didnt know of any offline charging problems but from my experience ROOTed >>unRooted in every aspect.
And its really easy too if you dont undate to .254 version, just connect cable and use doomlords kit.
I have rooted and unlocked bootloader and everything works fine so dont be afraid and ROOT! :good:

repair with SEUS or PC compagnon
I have rooted my SP about 10 times give or take
The last 3 days i kept changing and trying roms and flashing kernels(i relocked and unlocked my bootloader 2 times) (most used program in my PC was flashtool )
But thats just extreme so i slowed down. Overall as zolaisugly said rooting helps you and dont mind about the small bugs that can be repaired easily
Also to make your decision easier you can use these apps : Titanium Backup , Greenify , Light Flow (helped me a lot) , Folder Mount , Link 2 SD !!!!
It just worth it !!!!

No ofcourse not (; don't worry. Nothing will be disabled, and for the offline charging bug, just make your own ftf from a repair with SEUS and you'll flash a bug free kernel when done rooting .254

Mere rooting of the phone does NOT give problems.
Unfortunately, with the advent of 4.3, "mere' rooting is not possible unless you install pre-rooted "custom" roms.
A few roms are simply "re-engineered" stock to allow root and recoveries - these give the least problems.
Other roms are modified, and thus have more chances of problems.
I installed this "near stock" rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2704312 and had no problem
Because I wanted more than stock, I am now on this (the longest I have been on one rom): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658043
If you have your own stock in hand, try the above roms. If you encounter problems, it is easy to re-flash your stock.
Your greatest challenge would be to downgrade to 4.1.2 to root before you can install these roms.

Sony has released Timeshift .apk on Google Play

Hi, I read about this on Xataka:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sonymobile.android.addoncamera.timeshift
It seems to be only for Xperia with 4.2+, and by the moment its confirmed for Z's family at least, someone with the 4.3 leaked can confirm if its available for T and V?
If google play dont let you install on T and V there is some way to made it work without installing Z1's camera mod? I supose maybe only need to install Z1's framework and get the .apk
Thanks to the one who test it, I have the V since a week ago, but im trying to calibrate the battery so i prefer dont be flashing 4.3 by the moment

Thank you, i'll wait for the official update to start trying the Z1 camera mods, hopefully they wont have any bugs if devs can use 4.3 to improve compatibility.
Anyway im looking for the apk file, maybe with some luck... All we know that gplay uncompatibility is not always system uncompatibility...
Timeshift apk is available for download on the forums. I can't remember exactly where I downloaded if from but can confirm it works perfectly on the leaked version of 4.3 for the Xperia T.

I had this problem in 4.4 too.. U must downgrade to 4.3 build .136..For Now 4.4 have many bug and not stable..or try repair ur phone software with SONY update Service(sus)...maybe this fix it !!!
That's wrong advice.
Just uninsulated all non stock camera apps. So if you try and use 4k video or the 4.3 time bust video it will note work. Also you should clear the data in all camera apps. Downgrading and not using 4.4 is an extreme fix when you can still use 4.4 and have a working camera

I just wiped data and cache for camera app then restarted, that fixed it
