I know this has already been discussed but I used to have, and Im not going to lie or exaggerate but around 20 Camera Applications, then this problem occurred so I got rid of around 75% of them, and I still have the problem and finally I now only have the Stock Application and the Modified one where you can use the Trigger Buttons.
The problem is that my camera is fully functional, it works in the Service Menu but only if I run Fast Reboot first while i'm actually in the Camera Menu.
Is my phone dodgy or is this my phone giving me a warning sign to Ditch it for the iPhone? ;p
try .ftf'ing back to stock and see if that helps if not then its probably a hardware issue
But I had this problem before as well which is why I flashed again.
Well restored my phone..
Sounds like its a hardware problem now bro

But It Works In The Service Menu >__<
Hmmm I remember reading something about rewriting the hardware keys or something like that I think allejandrissimo can do it

Found a solution ;p
Go into service menu and start camera, which wont work so use fast reboot and then it should work. Then enter the camera app and then it should work.
If only I knew that when I saw a NSX and a Green Lancia Delta Integrale Evo II the other day..

Hi guys
My front camera stopped working...i get Camera not connected message when trying to turn on the camera.
I tried everything like clearing data and restarting, resetting to factory settings and software repair in pc companion. All of the above methods failed.
Can someone help me out....thanks
Mine stopped working as well. No idea what causes it though. It went back to normal at one point but then it failed again. I would assume it's something to do with the hardware of the camera, because nothing I do to the software changes it. And trust me, I've tried a lot as well.
...i had the same problem. I've sent it back and got another one

Camera or front speaker not working
I replaced the front camera and speaker ribbon cable and i still have the problem
My front camera or front speaker stopped working last week for an unknown reason.
Same issue for mine as well. Rebooting after attempting to use it seemed to work for a while, but it returned to the error. I agree with it being a hardware issue.
If you're using a custom rom and using the LED torch on the quickpanel, go untick that LED torch on quickpanel settings.
If you're using stock rom, sorry no idea.

yea or if it's already off just flick it on and off and the camera will work
you have probably toggled something off. try to look for your default settings and apply them. that should work. if any more problems arise just ask me. XPERIA GAMER
Its probably a bad connector on the motherboard

I have the same issue, both front camera and front speaker.
I just replaced the flexcable and it solved the problem.

Make sure if you are using a CM9 or CM10 rom that you are using the legacy camera application, because the default google camera app sometimes is not compatible. It can also be related to the kernel being used.

:victory: peace from Indonesia
clear data of the camera app,
or in custom rom u need to off Status Bar Widgets or off LED/Flash toggle,
tried everything but still no succes, when i switch to fron camera black screen only came up, i'm able to press button for taking photo and when i press it, camera app freezes and i must get out of it with home button
still the problem here
This is not a ROM-specific issue - it has been an irritating thing for me over the past year. It has happened on CM7/9/10, MIUI, any custom rom actually. Rather irritating when you wanna switch from gaming to texting etc (which is what I often do).
Just wondering if anyone found a fix. Thanks!

I have this issue as well. Whenever I open or close my play, it reboots. If I apply pressure as I slide out the gamepad, it works normally. Most likely a loose hinge or something.

Its not a software issue its a hardware issue for sure because my xperia play reboots when I close the slide on any rom. I'm not very tech savvy nor am I afraid of opening my xperia play I just don't know how the slide on the xperia play ticks. It can be number of things it can be slide, flex, the screen I have no clue. If someoone has a hardware fix on this please share.
Had this problem on stock rom but after flashing cola it's yet to happen.
Maybe I got lucky, IDK, it might be worth a try if it's bothering you too much.
There is a contact problem with your battery and the phone

This is not from your Rom. It is from your battery. Remove the battery use a paper to make it more firm as you put the battery inside the phone. I had the same problem but now I can slide my xperia PLAY open as hard and fast as u want without it rebooting.
HIT THANKS IF THIS HELPED

That doesn't work for me. I had to open my xperia play and replace the flex cable and now no reboots. The flex cable on my xperia play has alot of wear and tear in it.
I gave my R800at to my brother and today it begin to reboot when sliding in or out, it was a little lose, but not much.
I opened it, the flex cable seemed to be secure so I don't know specifically what caused it to reboot. But I tried to secure all the connections and tighten all the screws in the phone and it fixed the problem. No doubt I feel the problem will reoccur again in the future. I does seem sliding out the gamepad slowly and with some pressure down help.
To open the phone you need to use a Torque screw driver with the size "T5", you can get it at Lowe or Home Depot.
Ok, I have posted on this before and no one seems to bother even replying. But I'm trying again because this problem is really @#$!$# me off!
At random my phone will act like the back button is being presses. But it doesn't happen to all programs or all the time. Programs that are included that it usually happends with: XDA forum app, Play Store, K9 Mail, MobileBiz Pro.
It actually acts like the back button is being pressed. So if I try to open XDA, the loading screen comes up, then BACK to the homescreen. If I go into K9 Mail and am fast enough to open an email, after a second or so, it goes back to the K9 main mail screen, I press the email again, it opens, then BACK to the main screen, then if I wait anothe second or so, it goes BACK again to the homescreen.
But it doesn't do this with all programs. The other thing is, I tried posting this on my phone. I was almost done and tried to think if I was missing anything. My screen times out and turned off, I hit the power button to turn the screen on again, then as soon as it turned on, it BACKED out of my message to the Q&A forum, then BACK to the main xperia play forum, then BACK to the homescreen.
PLEASE HELP. I have no idea how to fix this. I thought it could be not enough memory, so I used supercharger to set the memory settings low so it wouldn't close things unless it was almost out of memory, and no effect. I have no idea what to do and I need help!
I'm hoping this time someone can!
PLEASE!

I've tried multiple roms. But I'm not sure if it can be a HW problem since it doesnt do it in all programs, only certain ones.
I mean flashing the stock Rom via flashtool again?
It will give u a clear system

Yes I have.
It's weird, I can use a program called "My OC Transpo" A timetable app for city busses. No problems, but the Gallery app and other programs get the problem.
That is very weird and I bet very annoying it may be a hardware problem then but I'm just guessing :/
I know it seems like it is a HW issue. But why does it do it for some programs and not others?
I used to use K9 Mail, it didnt even do it at first, the problem happend with other programs, then after time it happend to K9. So I switched to MailDroid, and no problems.
Heres the REALLY weird thing. If I WAIT a little bit with the screen on, the problem doesnt happen. Say for 20-30 seconds.
Anyone?
Does the screen have moisture on it when it happens? When the screen is cold and you breathe on it moisture can form. At least it does for me, especially in the morning.
If not, does pressing the back button stop it happening?
Sent from my Ascend G300 using xda app-developers app
Nope no moisture.
It also happens in this situation: i'm using it fine, then the screen turns off from the timeout, it comes back up, and the problem happends. I have to wait about 30 seconds or so for it to start working again.
Well you can view a log cat and see what happened at the exact time of the "random back"

No need to logcat HW problems. If you have a warranty maybe they'll fix it. If not buy a broke play on eBay and use its parts to fix yours.

My guess is that you've got a hardware problem :/
Flash stock ftf, if BL is unlocked then flash the relock ftf, and send it off to Sony aslong as you still have Warranty

No warrenty. It's a few year old.
I dont think it is HW. I mean it works FINE for programs like my bus app, titanium backup, etc. but for other programs, K9 Mail, MobileBiz, Google Play Store, it doesnt.
well the apps may just be incompatible and unstable on your rom
I've just installed GTA Vice City on my Xperia S and I was excited about getting to play it at last.
The bad thing is, after about 30 seconds of gameplay the game totally crashes and the only way to cut out of the game is to do a hard reset (hold power button + volume up)
I'm just wondering if anyone else has got this game on their device and came across the same problem?
And if so, have you been able to fix it?
My XS is completely stock and unrooted running the latest ICS update.
Thanks in advance if anyone could shed some light on this issue

Same here. But also the game feels a bit laggy.
It actually felt pretty good for the time it would let me use it. It's just the total crash which means I can't do anything with it.
Same here!
Sorry guys for OT, but how did you get this game? IT doesn't show on Google play
Sent from my Sony Xperia S rocking JB
It doesnt show on play store because rockstar have removed it due to the issue of it freezing or as they call it 'technical difficulties' it should be fixed soon though. Fingers xed
I heard of a bug in the game that Rockstar will solve in their next update... For source, simply google 'vice city android'
P.S. GTA III works fine for me

WAIT A DAMN SECOND. KIDCARTER93, DIDN'T YOU SAID YOU HAVE SOLD YOUR XPERIA S? You god damn bastard.
Same here with my Xperia Acro S rooted stock...
It was smooth and good at first, but then crashes...
will wait for fix from Rockstar
Same thing here. I'm from a different phone Galaxy S Blaze 4G ( i googled the issue and came across here) It's REALLY smooth at first but then it freezes. Like, the visuals.. cause i can still here the sounds, and im driving and running people over, then i hear the cops.. it just freezes.. BTW im on CM10.
Oh and i dont have to hard reset.. just exit the game, if you're wondering.
I can run around the city but I can't drive cars it freezes as soon as I press the gas but over all this game is way better than GTA 3
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
I'm guessing this game will be working fine once it's officially released because a ton of devices are having problems running this game at the moment, even though they're on the approved list of devices to work (like our xperia s).
I've managed to get the game working on my S2 and even some people have problems with it on that phone aswell.
Hopefully Rockstar will be able to get this issue solved soon enough

Same problems also with the new Gta Vice City 1.01 version relased yesterday!
Sony Xperia S with Cyanogenmod 9.1 Stable
Still freezing on 1.0.1
Yes, even I am facing issue with 1.01 while driving alone
Same thing on CM10
I am going out of my mind. I've tried all ROMS, kernels there are. Currently I'm on Trinity kernel + .200 JB.
The phone sometime just goes crazy. I unlock it, open the dialer the phone itself starts making a call, lowers the volume or ups it. I cancel the call, it makes it again. I close the dialer, open the contacts and it opens a random contact, I'm not even given a chance to scroll. It happens irregardless of the app, while on the home screen it will open an app by choice. I have to reset it and most of the time that works, but sometimes it doesn't.
The last FW I tried was GB with DoomKernel 4a. I was hoping it was a JB issue, but it happened there too. Can anyone pinpoint what is the issue? Hardware fault it's gotta be...perhaps a bad touchscreen digitizer?
P.S. Random phone reboots, shutdowns are also quite frequent lately.
Sounds like a hardware fault. Or possibly a ghost?

Google seems to suggest it's a faulty touchscreen digitizer.
Damn, with service centers here, I'll be without a phone for half a month at least.
