On Android 2.3.4, run into this issue just recently. Have tried any solutions possible but all failed. Help!
Every time open camera app:
Warning: Camera Failed:ErrorMessageHandler.handlemessage(-1), then OK button to close.
I could not even get to the camera setting where supposedly I can force to upgrade the fw of camera?
Thanks!

1. I have already try another application, but still doesn't work,
2. I have already flash Firmware, custom rom still doesnt work.
3. change SD Card, format, doesn't work,
Until now...I think the must go to Samsung customer service....
yes that is the last option u should try
go to samsung care centre
yes, I think you should go to service center..
maybe there's a problem with the hardware
Hi there!
I have one issue with my XZ. Sometimes, when I launch camera app, I have an error: Camera is unavailable. Whan can I do?
Greetings!
Someone?
No one have the same issue - which means yours might be a faulty unit and the camera module fails to activate at times.
Suggest you bring it into the nearest Sony service center for a check.

Can happen if the camera doesn't get released after prior use.
Do you use any other app to take pictures? Directly from FB app? Different camera app?
If nothing holds true you may "repair" your phone by completely reflashing it using Sony PC Companion software.
Hi!
It happen when camera is doesn't use for a while. I don't know. How often we use camera? When I need to take a photo, Im opening camera app, and I take an error. Then I turn off my phone, turn it on back, and camera works again. I take a few photos, click back button (back arrow), and if I want to take photo in future, I can't.
Bootloader is unlocked, so bring phone to Sony is rather poor idea. Maybe new firmawe, flashed by flashtool will solve my issue?
Have you tried deleting data of the camera app?

It happens with the stock camera app only? Can you try with a third party camera app?

Try flashing a rom or reflashing the fw back to stock... If that dont work, you may have to take it back to Sony
Are you rooted? Did you delete any system files??
All you can do is repair your phone with pc companion,if nothing changed than to service.

Ok, so I will flash tomorow new FTF file, but now I have orginal Russian FTF firmware (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2167096) I will try French or UK. Earlier I had polish branded firmware, but I had a bootloop so I had to flash russian FTF. Maybe it's the problem?
Tell me, if it will not resolve of my problem, I will relock bootloader, and Sony will recognize the guarantee? Can I unlock bootloader after?

or you can do it on PC Companion if installed on your PC.
Either one, connect you phone, check for updates,
it will update or say you have the latest update, but give you a repair option.
But, if you do use repair, it will wipe data from your phone so back up any contacts, media or app's you want to keep.
You could try a Factory Reset on your phone first, this resets defaults.
Settings >> Back Up & Reset >> Factory Data Reset >> Reset Phone >> Erase Everything
or you can do it on PC Companion if installed on your PC.

Thanks mate! Ok, I'll try to do as u said. And how do you think can I stay on ICS without updating to JB? , it's because I've read threads that JB isn't that good for this phone

Try the Factory Reset first, that wont affect ICS to JB, but back up your stuff.
Ha, you can't have the best of both worlds, either stay on ICS with no camera or update to JB.

Hi Friends,
My friend's A500s had some power on/off issue. So he gave the phone to Xolo Service center. After 25 days, it has come back with the problem fixed. But both the SIMs' Network are gone. Everything else works fine. It seems the Service center flashed his phone with Baseband Version Modem_XOLO_A500s_S014_13092013
The Phone Recognizes the SIM cards without any issue. But no signal. It searches for Signal constantly with "Magnifying Glass" like tiny icon over the Signal Indicator. And a tiny X mark for rest of the time.
Bluetooth works
Wifi Works
FM Radio Works
Everything else Works
He doesn't want to give again to XOLO service center as he needs the phone for next week. He can't wait for another 25 days.
I installed CWM and Flashed with a Custom ROM but the Signal issue persists.
I would like to know what I should do to get the signal back...
1. Change the baseband or Downgrade it to 08082013?
2. Any other Custom ROM?
3. Any setting tweaks to be done?
or Any Hardware issue that we can't do/ Resubmit the phone to the same Xolo service center?
Right now, My friend can't afford another phone.
Kindly help me guys with your precious experiences and knowledge.

NightWalker, Did you face the same problem? If so, how did you manage to fix it? Could you kindly explain little more?
Which Stock ROM?
I flashed with SP Flash Tool earlier.. Stock ROM was from Androidxda site.

Download here
The stock rom and sp flash tool.Just follow the tutorial and you can do it well.
Download VCOM drivers of micromax a110 from google
They work.When u connect phone to pc with battery removed ,install driver then.

Thanks, NightWalker..
In the meanwhile, I rooted another fine working A500s and took a backup using CWM. I restored the problematic A500s (Using CWM) with Good A500s' Backup file. Baseband reverted to old 08082013 S011. But the problem persists.
Just now noticed, Front Camera quality sucks to the core.. worst.. before giving for service it was decent to make a video call..
I finally try once with your Stock ROM... If it doesn't work, I have to ask my friend to return the device to the same service center.
Thanks once again for the Help

I am new to this Forum though I have been following it for a long time.. Just now I learnt to thank properly.. I mean just now noticed "Thank" button..
I checked the link you provided.. The links are dead.. S007 is very old.. the phone had come with S011.. Service center updated it to S014..
I went through the links.. hmmm.. Not working.. I already know how to root and flash.. all I need is a ROM or Baseband file to rectify the Network issue.. I tried everything I could..:crying:
Any of A500s users faced similar problem?
Now I started Hating Xolo Service Centers.. Could it be faulty radio receiver???

Nope,It's the best one.S007 is the most stable.
Hi, i have seen many forums regarding this error, so I will post what i have tried already. Problem only on rear camera.
I did clean cache and restarted.
Reinstalled camera app/other camera apps from the store.
Started in safe mode.
Ran xperia diagnostics/service test. Camera didnt start.
As far as i can remember it happened shortly after installing avatar rom. I kept getting constant crashes so i decided to flash stock again, everything works fine but the camera.
Right now i am on 4.4.4, with the "C6602_10.5.1.A.0.283_Customized_US" firmware. Rooted using towelroot, but the problem existed before and remains after rooting.
I have been uninstalling/disabling some sistem apps through Titanium Backup , so I would say i mistakenly deleted some important system app. Can anyone share the process/apps needed to use camera? so i cant install all of them again.
Can it be the firmware? should i try a different one? I would like to fix it without having to wipe, but if it must be I will just restart from scratch.
Thanks for the assistance, feeling sort of lost on this one.

Try with clean install. Repair it via PC Companion or reflash it via Flashtool. If still doesn't work it's probably hw problem.
ok, i tryed reflashing a couple of times, the error is still there. It doesnt seem likely that its a hardware issue. Is it possible to reinstall the files necessary for using the camera?
One other thing, i cant use pc companion repair because it says my software is modified, if i relock bootloader can i use it?

Yes, you can use it with locked bl, but you don't need to do that, find .ftf ROM for your region and model or any other you like and do a clean flash via Flashtool, if still not working it's hw issue, you need new camera module.

i just reflashed 2 different roms for my phone and version. Relocked and repaired via pc companion. And nothing worked, i assume its hw damage then.
Does it happen when the phone suffers a hit? or is there another explanation?. Cant figure out how it happened.
Thank you for all your help.

Hi, kennycol
Can you tell me if it is hardware problem?
I met the same problem
After revive my C6833, the camera can't work. Firstly,the front camera is OK,but not a long time, it also can't work.
After I flashed other rom using flashtool, two camera both can not work.
when I use camera , phone shows "unfortunately, the camera stopped"
press *#*#7378423#*#*
enter service test
camera CAMERA NOT CONNECTED
Secondary camera THIS DEVICE DOES NOT SUPPORT THE FUNCTION
Then, I reflash it by S1tool, the things repeat again.
