Xperia sola Camera not working - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hello,
I have an Xperia sola with stock ICS rom.
I recently rooted and unlocked the boot loader of my xperia sola.
After that I ran Supercharger v6, Speedy Sola and AC!D Audio.
The camera worked fine before I rooted and unlocked the bootloader (while on ICS and back when I was on GB), but today I noticed that when I try to go to the camera nothing happens. I only hear a blink of the shutter and the screen goes black for a second.
I tried using Cyber Shot Mod but nothing changed, accept now there is no normal Camera app available, only the Cyber shot, which does the same as the stock camera app did (blink sound and black screen for a second).
I tried Flashing it to 6.1.1.B.1.54, nothing happened. Tried setting it back to factory but nothing changed.
I downloaded a camera app from Google Play and I can take photos there, but they are not as good and I would like to have my original camera app, as it was fine for me.
Please help.

Are you still using this rom with those apps installed? If so try a hard reset, if this doenst work try to flash stock ICS or GB rom...

Thank you for trying to help me.
As I wrote I already tried to factory reset it and flashing it back to ICS rom (with flashtool) but no luck.
After I did that it seems I still have root access, CWM is still installed and AC!D Audio is still there.
Do you refer to something different from factory reset when you wrote "hard reset"?
If not, do you have any other suggestions?

Then flash .54 tft again and do a full wipe (data), factory reset ang tick wipe data. You can remove sdcard if you want but everything from phone will be wiped, so bacjup what you want.

I apologize, it was my mistake. Accidently flashed kernel instead of full flash.
Fixed the camera.
THANK YOU EVERYBODY!

how to do a full wipe and reinstall stock??
You find the stock ROM you want to install (a google/xda search should help you with that), then you boot into recovery, and wipe data, cache and dalvik, then flash the downloaded ROM. If you don't have recovery, and you just want to reset everything, you can do a factory data reset from Settings > Privacy.
i have already done that
but it dun work
also
it that wipe data = wipe data/ reset factory data in recovery mode?

Camera doesnt work, tried several solutions, please help!

Hello!
My camera is not working, when I open the camera app the flashlight go on, and the camera app freezes, all the touch functions of the camera dont respond and the screen goes black. I tried change several rooms, clean wipes, downloaded others camera.apk and cameras from the Play Store, but nothing works. When that happens I need to reboot the phone or wait some time to the flashlight go off. Now I am using Checkrom V7 in android 4.0.4. If I tried to use the flashlight only, the same problem happens, the flashlight wont go off and freezes the app.
Anyone have any ideia/solution for the problem?
Thank you!

If you did change ROM's and tried different kernels and did all the 3 wipes, it sounds like you have a hardware problem.

Hi,
I already tried CM10 kernel, Siyah, Dream, samsung original rom, nothing works. I also tried today the new version of RR, 3.0.4, but nothing.
UP
anyone?
Does it work on stock ROM?

Mmm all i can suggest is what I would try. Install a stock ROM with full wipes as before but also format the system. If it's a software bug this should fix it as it's a clean installation. All the best.

Hi, I tried the full wipe with forma system, but that didnt work, and the stock rom also doesn`t work :crying:
Maybe if I send it to tech assistence they can check if it is a hardware problem?
Thanks!

Maybe you don´t download RR room completed, download again and review if MB is completed, do wipe Data (factory reset), and cache y dalvik wipe, in mounts and storage: format system, format cache, format data.
Reinstall teh room and no install anyone apk.

My Xperia Neo L is not booting, please help. I am truly grateful for any advice or help!
I flashed the osb and then it went into a bootloop. The sony screen turned on then went to xperia, then turned off and then restarted again. So then i decided to flash the backup nandroid. After i sucessfully restored the backup, the Sony screen turned on then turned off and restarts again and again. I cant get into clockworkmod anymore!! When the sony screen turns on, i hold the volume key and press too and nothing works. PLEASE HELP!!!
I am rooted, stock neo L 4.1.b.0.626, and no unlocked bootloader.
Would it work if i use flash tool to flash the stock rom or something? Please help! ALSO i might have usb debugging checked off im pretty sure

I think you need to unlock bootloader. bcz i tried OSB and use them for 2-3 days and dlt it using no-usb.zip. it works gr8 for me. if phone is not starting then use stock firmware .631 and flash it. root it and unlock bootloader. install CWM and backup and do anything you want...bcz it restore successfully.

try flashing stock ftf without wipe data checked........ and then try rooting........
It's because you've swapped the kernels to get root i assume?
If so, deal with it. Get root and then flash the newer kernel back

This can happen sometimes...due to .10 kernel on .54 firmware.Don't worry just reboot and try again...or else delete all .semcbackup folder files or copy them anywhere else(on pc),such that there is no backup present in backup and restore app.Then try rooting..then do a quick guess touch:silly:to select root.me and press backup.This happened with me too...

S3 reboots to a blank screen. Erm... whoops.

Hi.
I just like, rooted and flashed my S3 with an Archdroid rom 2 days ago. didnt really like it so thought of trying
★[ROM][26. Jan] GlamourS4/N3 for S3 ♦Touch Of Note 3♦ [4.3] version 5.0 [MK6] [FAST]★
so i go into recovery and wiped the data and cache, and cleared the Dalvik cache too and installed the rom. All was smooth till the installation completed and rebooted. I see the Samsung Galaxy S3 screen for awhile, then blank. Phone's running warm.
What should i do? I tried repeating the whole installation process again.... no help. And oh, i am using the Philz Touch recovery. Does it make a difference what recovery i use anyway?
EDIT: ok its running really really warm now. screen still is blank, yet menu and return buttons do light up when i touch them. what gives?
Hope someone can help out a noob there. Thanks very much

If you are using PhilZ recovery go to wipe data/factory reset option 2 clean to install a new rom this is the best way to install ..Make sure your rom is on the external SD card see if that works and report back.

Then you need to return to stock with Odin and see if you still have problems...After flashing back to stock with odin if you get a bootloop boot into recovery and factory reset..
Update. it occurred to me that the version of the GlamourS4N3 rom i downloaded is the V4, not the V5. So it hangs up my phone upon installation and reboot. its definitely on. Just that the screen is blank and the menu and return buttons do light up when i touch then. Phone gets really really warm. I thought the first boot would take a bit of time, as did the ArchDroid rom but..... didn't happen...
So i downloaded the S4 Revolution V12 and it installed and booted up perfectly. Thank goodness.
But thanks guys for taking time to try to help me out. Cheers. I have downloaded the V5 and prolly try that out in afew days.

I flashed the v4 ytd too and resulted in the same. I had to buy a sd card to unbrick my phone. Tried v5 and no notification bar and they said I selected too much things in aroma installer. And when v4 bricked my phone, the developer said he dun know anything to fix it. It was another user who helped me.

The MEGA download link was fast which is why i downloaded it and i realised its the V4. I verify that both the direct download link and bittorrent link for the V5 works but very very slow.
Yes its always good to have an ext SD card and put the rom in there, becoz when u clear the user data and stuff, and if u have no SD card and yr new rom is inside it will just be deleted altogether and WHAM! u r stuck.I know, becoz it happened to me on my first rom reflash. I was lucky to have an old 2gb mini sd card lying around. I remember 1 came with my P1000.
+, u can set your pictures to be saved in ext sd so when u wipe yr phone to put a new rom in, yr pics and whatsapp msgs r backed up in the ext sd so yea....

Fyi, custom recoveries do not delete the root directory of the internal sd card. So ur whatsapp, pictures, music, rom zips will not be erased when u factory reset it.

confirmed. coz i tried to flash wif the Philz recovery and what i didnt realise was, the stock recovery overwrote the Philz when i rebooted. And then i wiped everything lol. I didnt know i had to select the "option 2" to prevent the stock recovery from erm, recovering?

Tats weird. Try using cwm. Cwm does tell me tat the stock recovery might auto reflash when I wanted to reboot system. I just didn't care abt it and reboot but nth happens.
