[Help] Front Camera not Working [LwW][Black Screen][All Roms] - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi Guys !! I was on CM9 stable when I switched to video mode of the front camera. Before that in photo mode it was working properly. But after i switched to video mode there was a black screen with FC. From then my front camera is not working (both photo and video mode) on every rom. Either I get a black screen or a reboot or an FC. Plus i have unlocked B/L. Please help. Thanx in advance.

Did you also try stock rom and after that *#*#7378423#*#*>Service Test>Secondary Camera?

I agree with mihan... Try formatting sd card ..

Why format sd card? SD Card has nothing to do with frontcam? Or am I wrong?
Try on stock rom, best way

Yup,flash it with the stock Rom n kernel and then try...and did u check the secondary cam in service menu...is it working...

I faced similar problem but on main cam. Sd card had some bad blocks..

Friend the solution is this, go to settings - applications - all-camera, and give clear data, reboot and you work.

Thank you. I'll try this and inform you. For now i am not that concerned about the front cam. but it's really an issue. Btw I've tried stock 587 Rom but the front cam didn't work. I didn't check the service menu though.

i had a similar problem, i reinstalled stock 2.3.4 rom,then cm9 kernel (to root the device)(u can also use rage2.9 kernel just to root),then baseband,then i installed cm9 rom again and thats it,works for me
wiping sd-ext also helps

Thanks. I'll try your method.

Bad luck for me Guys. Flashed a stock GB rom. Still Front Cam not working both in Camera app or in service mode. Can anyone confirm if i can claim warranty by relocking bootloader...??

Don't know, cause unlocking bootloader official way voids your warranty. So they could say it has happend because of a custom rom. Maybe try the support chat or phone and aks...

Did anyone face any similar issue using cm9?

Yup,front cam didnt work in cm9 n cm7 for that matter.I went back to stock and then installed ics.now it works perfectly.

Samsung Galaxy S3 Camera on Xperia S

Hi guys,
Is there any way to port SGS3's camera on our Xperia S, want to use feature of clicking Photos while Video recording.

This will be available on any AOSP based ROM. Meanwhile you can try installing Camera.apk from CM9 on the stock ROM.

[ics][camcorder]video recording works with effects

Hi Guys,
Testers are needed to make sure that video recordingin ICS works without any problems. It works fine for me. This patch is not developed by me. All credits go to rapmv78. His patch is in the link. I think tat video recording is not available in roms available in x10 forum. So flash this fix and let me know.
If any one is unable to download from server, u can have the link.
All credits go to rapmv78 only.
Pls hit a THANKS if you are satisfied

this patch doesn't add anything new to z's camera fix. doesn't matter if you apply the patch before or after z's fix.
short answer: doesn't work!

On z's fix I couldnt start recording after this patch its starting (also Elixir now shows Camcorder properties before it caused WLOD) but recorded files cant be played
What a crock of ****!!! Just tested this, i should have known better! , and it's not working! DUH!!! :silly: X10 has no HWA!!! Thanx for nothing!!!

Useless for X10! Nominate for lock!!!
No development done here and reading by the posts you should really of done some beta testing before starting a thread.

the trebuchet error was most likely because of the kernel from the zip
now, if you still have the ROM installed, please flash a compatible kernel from here...
and let your phone boot once & settle, then login to Google account

he will have an 8 MP option if he's got a neo, else it should be 5 MP
