Hi,
so after I had installed the new Eclair onto my device, everything worked fine, but camera app started to say not available (you can choose wait or force close). What happened? How can I solve this problem?
If anybody has a good idea or something, please share! (my phone is not more than a week old...)
thanks
I am facing the same issue. I am just trying to reflash using SEUS to see if it sorts it out. I used the same image to flash a couple of other peoples X10s, and they haven't had any problems so might just be the luck in the draw...
Update:-
I have flashed using SEUS and when starting the camera from either holding the shutter button or choosing camera from the apps menu I get the same error message:-
"Sorry! Activity Camera (in application Camera) is not responding"
After killing the Camera app, it will start up but will display
"Camera not available"
After reflashing with the generic global firmware again and checking the camera before changing any other settings, it still fails.
The error message is now
"Sorry! Application Camera (in process com.sonyericsson.android.camera) is not responding"
The only options are Force Close and Wait.
Has anybody got any ideas on how to get around this issue?
I tried to rewrite camera app at system, but it was not succesful. Device is not rooted (yet). Maybe it solves?
I suffer the same problem. After a few study I doubt if the SEMC_IMX046_Camera driver is missed / corrupted on the phone which led to this 'Camera not available' symptom. Anyone able to help us out?
is it sure? if this causes the problem, all that we need to change/recover it with the original one. PLEASE HELP US!
same problem here. caused by an error while flashing the cam to hd. now
always forces to close. :/

Hey
I will not create similar topic cause I have same problem, so I'll write there.
As I wrote my problem is same as speakers previously. It's really annoying. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? I use stock 2.1 firmware. The most funny is that my xperia was bought just on the 1st of april so it's like a new one, whats wrong with it?

If it would help, could some1 send me working SemcCameraApp.apk and write me in which one directory in my rooted phone can I find it?

Adam
@edit: I forgoten to write that yesterday I reinstalled system via SEUS on my X10. Problem still exists.
I saw that there was a camera fix zip file posted a couple of days ago. It seems that there are people whose upgrade to 2.1 was incomplete.
I went and searched and found it archived, it was March not recently. It will try to reflash your camera firmware for HD which may be the problem if you stopped the flash progress when the 'flashing camera' icon was on the display. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991442
HOWEVER I THINK IT NEEDS A ANDROID SDK ON YOUR PC TO RUN
Another thing is that if the permissions for the camera app are incorrect it gives similar messages.
The permissions should be if you look in the /system/app directory for the SemcCameraApplication.apk rw-r--r-- if you have Root Explorer you can mod them with the checkboxes. Read for Owner, Group, Others and Write for Owner only.

Now I try to explain ,
remove battery then simultaneously press on the back camera and near battery contact .Try it this is definitely the solution I have repaired 2 phones without opening them. It is not a problem of kernel version.

hello Emax,
i swithed off the phone then removed the battery. pressed the metallic part. then i pressed the area around the camera unit on the back. then switched it on again. Am I doing it right??
Regards,
Shikhar
PS: I have even dissassembled the phone once and then reassembled it. nothing seems to fix it.
Thanks emax2000 , your solution worked perfectly... It was indeed connector problem. Pressing the Camera and metal plate beneath the battery near the battery connector resolve the issue..
I had upgraded the OS initially to resolve it but that didn't helped.
Thanks a Lot emax2000

Hello!
I have a problem with the rear camera on the phone when I enter the main camera screen is black and message "Error: The camera may be use by another application. Please close the other application and try again." The front camera works normally.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
I had same problem but it disappeared idk how but I think flash with Flashtool should help if it doesn't I would say it will be camera problem (somehow damaged or something)
