Black screen on camera - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I enter camer mode I can see all menus but where the preview should be, it is black, when I take a picture it displays an error. Have never flashed or modded anything. I tried to resolve the problem by using different camer cabs, didn't fix anything. It is covered by warrenty but don't think it is anything I shouldn't be able to fix. Anything help would be great!
Thanks,

Problem regarding *black*wallpaper

ok i have this issue on my htc hd2 im trying to resolve.
i installed a landscape mode cab in order to enable my phone to be used in landscape. when i installed it it didn't work so i uninstalled it. after i restarted my phone nothing was set as a wall paper. so i restarted my phone again changed the wallpaper and nothing happened....the screen just stood black and it says that supposedly there's a wallpaper set up but nothing is there.....its all black.
Can someone please help me out and tell me how i can fix this issue, i would really appreciate it.
Thanks =)
Do you use Cookies Home Tab and CHTEditor? If so try installing or reinstalling the latest version of Cookies Home Tab, I think it's version 1.8.5

what did you installed for landscape, rotate screen? if not I would suggest uninstall whatever .cab you put on the phone, soft reset and look for rotatescreen and use that, energy roms come with it already set up with a long press send key to rotate to landscape. If you already uninstalled it and your still having the wallpaper issue , I suggest a hard reset, and go from there.
Sorry for answering to all you guys late, but i already found my solution thanks alot though
graciously provide the solution (and the app name you installed for landscape) support so others encountering this problem can benefit as well
Mod. edit: not accessories related, moved to q&a

[Q] Odd camera problem

I can't find this anywhere so far, so I thought I'd ask you guys.
I recently updated the ROM to thr newer Tmobile one on HTCs website. First the camera stopped working, hard reset solved that one. Now it's doing something else.
If I take a landscape shot I get a small set of interference lines across the top of the image, if I take a portrait shot the interference lines become a large wedge down one side of the image. These lines are not there when the phone shows a preview image, but when I look at the saved image the interference is there. Presumably that makes it a software issue.
Is there a way to reinstall the camera?
I attached a portrait image to show the effect.
Cheers for any help,
Tony.

reflash/update the rom again. then when started up, reset by switching off your mobile. Once started up, now try the camera. If you stiil have the same problem, then flash back to the original rom, before the update. See if its ok on that one.

In stock image "Gallery", when zooming a pic, screen goes black

In stock image "Gallery", when zooming a pic, screen goes black .
After the ICS update, the image gallery also suffered a problem. Sometimes while viewing a pic and you double tap to zoom in, suddenly the screen goes black...no pic. Start to zoom back out and the image comes back..zoom in again..image black screen again. This happens with random pics and wont fix itself unless you Force Stop the app in Control panel. It wont always be the same pics..anyone else get this? Its not important, I just wondered if this is just something on my phone..
After updating to the OTA, everyone has problems until they do a factory reset. It clears out all the GB crap that messes it up.
Backup your data and then power off your phone. Take out the battery and put it back in. Then press power and volume down until you see he white screen. Use the volume keys to highlight and power to select "factory reset".
Forgot I wrote this, sorry. Already did a reset long ago as per suggestions by others for other problems since the update. So the problem never fixed itself. Its some crap with ICS. Its annoying because now I keep getting this problem.
Has anyone else experienced this before?
Ok..obviously nobody knows about this. I'm going to take a short video and i'll have it up within a couple days. This photo browser is pissing me off! Is there a better or just as good (FREE) app out there in the market or on XDA? Something that doesnt have this bullsh** problem in it? Thanks ahead of time for any replies.

After screen replacement, everything is upside down!

Hello!
I recently changed a cracked display on my l7777.
When I turn on the phone everything works just fine, including all tests using *#0*#.
But if I lock the screen or it locks itself after some time, the screen is upside down, really bright, and the touch inputs are reversed, for example to pull down the top bar, you have to drag from the bottom. Also sometimes crashes the *#0*# test or it shows failed.
Im not sure what is causing this, I tried apps that force the screen to certain rotation, but they barely work and the touch inputs are still reversed.
Sadly I only have access to limited technical support (I live in Bolivia) but I was wondering if there is any way to fix this, if the phone works perfectly on start up, maybe someone knows how to remain like this, what happens when the screen is locked?
Thank tou very much in advance for any help

Sounds like the digitizer was inverted somehow when the screen was replaced.

I would say, go back to the tech that replace it for you and tell them to fix it at no charge. But if you were the one that did it, I would suggest to go to someone that know how to do it.

Thank you, is there any way I can check if this is what has happened?
I cant take it back, Im afraid they could make more damage, and there is no good tech service near me, I have searched a lot.
Is there any way I can do this myself?
I was hoping that since everythings works ok until the screen locks, there may be a software fix for me.
You can do the repair yourself. I'm sure you can find a YouTube video to walk you through it. It might be worth it to tear it down and then rebuild it so you can make sure all the connections are secure and nothing is binding. There is not a lot of space inside, and it's easy to bind the ribbon cable.
Good luck!
Hi, same thing happen to me. Could you fix it?

[Q][SOLVE] Black Screen Camera

Hey everyone, i was searching the internet about camera slow focus at low light, i found about "Phone to Cam FW Write" after i tried updating my firmware i didn't see any difference so i wanted to write back to my old firmware, after i did it i had to restart my device. and when i did it i got the black screen, all of the buttons were force closing, only the Settings button worked. i had this phone for several weeks and i f***ed it up. i also tried *#0*# and the front camera worked but the back camera "Data Line Failed". help!
Okay, i fixed the black screen problem by reinstalling a few camera firmwares But now the problem is that my camera is macro focused, clicking the screen to focus makes no sense, i get the focus thingy green but it still is in macro. the settings for autofocus were on auto and not macro, i tried resetting the settings, but no luck. help
After playing and playing i managed to fix the black screen!
1. Download Camera Firmware Pack
2. Put a random firmware to your internal sd and go to *#34971539# "Phone to CAM FW Write"
3. Restart your device after you finished writing
4. If it made no differences, repeat 2. and 3.
5. If you got to macro blur and you can't fix it, try searching for your FIRST firmware you had before black screen. and write the firmware again
6. This should fix your phone. Because it did for mine
Bad camera
Hey I've been having a lot of trouble with my back camera; I'll try to install another camera firmware, where can I get one? Which one do you suggest? I have AICP ROM (KK 4.4.4)
Hey, same problem too, I received a s2 with this problem and is driving me crazy. I tought it was the sensor, so I blindly replaced it to no avail. I found the camera firmware pack, is it really going to fix the problem by flashing a random FW?
I've another working s2, but it has a custom firmware and the key combination *#34971539# doesn't work
