Does anyone else have the same problem? My camera won't work. No focus, and stucks with flash on. Takes no pictures. My bootloader is unlocked, and I cannot lock it, there's some kind of problem with my flashmode. Can't use it... Only fastboot works. Is there a fix for it, or do I have to downgrade to 4.3?
Best regards

Hello. I successfully upgraded my Xperia T to Jelly Bean 4.3 and the phone works perfectly until I lock it. After it has been locked I can't unlock it or do anything with the touchscreen. I have to reboot the phone pressing the two buttons on the side. Please help me.

yeah i had made a ftf file from the official 4.1.2 update that found in the sony update service and when ever i have a problem i jus flash it back with flashtools or u could have made a cwm back up and then restore but u will have to flash the kernel for the wifi to work
thanks i install the 4.1 and works fine thanks a lot!
Has anyone found solution to this problem yet?
I am on stock .157 not rooted. have no issues on the phone, but after maybe 2-3 days of usage, sensors wouldn't work (accelerometer, gyroscope, proximity). the screen wont turn off during calls , auto rotation wont work. Also in service tests, (*#*#service#*#*) all the values would be blank.
A restart will always fix these but I am still worried if this is a software issue. Any one else facing this issue ?

Try reflashing your FTF and see if it gets fixed. But before doing this, take it to Sony before more disappointment if its under warranty.

@ sruba209
Tried doing that, but it gets solved temporary. The sensors don't show after some time.
I have this exact problem not sure which ftf would be my original bought from carphone warehouse
Did you solve this issue???
Did Any one found the solution for the problem yet??
I think I found a solution ... @ebro52
This problem only occurs when I leave the auto rotate off.
For the past few days I have kept the auto rotate on and didn't encounter any issue. After I disabled auto rotate, about 6 hrs later , all sensors stopped working.....
Still the issue is not solved??
I still have the problem. Tried keeping auto rotate on as well. So now moving to a custom rom mostly cm12 or based on it. Wil let you'll know if problem persist.
Ive had the problem on all roms have to reboot to get them working again and all sensors stop at the same time
Is there anyway to get a log and see what stops working and when?
My sensors do not work on reboot as well. They stop and start on there on. I am using sony stock right now. I will root the phone and see if I can have a log. Mean while has any one found a issue Please post.

Slimkat didn't fix my problem at all. Seems the reason of the problem is different for us. Btw is there any app that can reset or recalibrate the sensors?! Is this theory right that the lcd I replaced is none original and caused this problem and replacing an original one will solve the problem?!
Does anyone know where the sensor's are located the only one I've found is on headphone jack

Is it just in the Camera App or on every app you try to open (ex. skype)?
Also if possible try to post a screenshot with the problem.

Really strange, I don't believe it's a hardware problem. Try this : on the dialpad type this *#*#7378423#*#* . This opens the service menu in xperia phones. Just go to service test and test the secondary camera. If it works then you should do a factory reset, maybe you messed up something in the system...
It saying this device does not support this function.

I hope it's not a hardware problem. To eliminate the possibility of a software related problem i suggest to flash a .ftf with the Flashtool.
If the problem still persist then its probably hardware related.
It's not that difficult to change the front facing camera in XZ (I have done it my self changing the motherboard - and the cameras are just below that) but that that would compromise the Water-resistance of the phone plus things could go really bad.

It is really weird, if it would be a hardware problem, the camera would show up as a option to activate but it world either crash or not show any image at all (like black screen).
At this point I don't know what to say. Try send it to a repair shop, there seems to be no other alternatives.
hey bro i have the same front cam problem with my phone,i dont know how to do .ftf with the flash tool.can you please guide me?

This thread is exclusive for Xperia z, if you have any question for your c5 please write in the right section. However flashing a firmware for Sony devices is almost identical for every device, so you can find them in the sticky posts on the cross-device threads.
Hi everyone
I'm visitor of xda forum for 6 years, but this is first time that I decided to write or ask something.
I have problem with camera of my Xperia z3+. I can't record hd videos, because when I try to record my phone freeze, and also focus doesn't work when I take photos for near object. I have tried everything in settings, but not success. I have tried also to repair my phone with Xperia companion from PC, and surprisingly it works, but unfortunately only for some days (maybe one week). After that same story. Again doesn't work. Don't ask me to call or to send the phone to Sony company because it doesn't exist in my country. What do you suggest guys? To flash new rom? Lineage? Or other official stock roms, even though I have tried to flash official 7.1.1 US version.
Sorry for my English, and thank you.

did you backup your DRM keys? if not, they are lost forever, that's why your camera have problem focusing, x-reality stops working and so on. flashing new roms will not solve your problem.
you need to flash kernel with DRM fix.
