[HELP] Camera Not Available - Sony Xperia ZL

Please help...
So, i bricked my phone, and re-flash KK FTF...
It works fine
But, when i'm trying to use camera, it says not available.. Help?

don't flash ftf which is not meant for your phone. i mean don't flash a c6506 if your phone is c6502

Yes true.It might not cause any issue but its better to be safe.Well any other camera apps have u tested ?
I have heard the same issue in XPeria Z that when it gets too hot the camera becomes unavailable but never on ZL though.
You can try reflashing the stock rom with correct version.May help.

Sometimes you have to do a factory reset after you flash a ftf file [emoji106]

[Q] [Help!] Stuck on sony logo and cannot boot into CWM

I couldn't find any threads that are helpful to me.. so i had to post a new one.
I have a Xperia arc with lock bootloader. I flashed the lt18i 4.1.B.0.587 one day and installed Xperia Ultimate HD. I decided to go back to stock rom because UHD didn't have the features I expected.. so i flashed the lt18i ftf again via flashtool.i rooted it and installed CWM. Everything works fine.
Then i tried to restore a backup that was made before i flashed lt18i firmware.( my phone was on lt15i 0.587 stock rom at that time)
I tried to restore it on LT18i firmware to have more free space and it actually succeeded. But when i reboot it to homescreen it's just keep saying "keypad force close". i thought it was because the backup was based on lt15i firmware and it's not compatible with 18i firmware...
so i flashed lt15i .587 firmware but i exclude system because i still wanted to have 420MB space and i thought i should do it in this way ( i didn't know if it works or not) unfortunately, i was wrong and the phone stuck on sony logo.
the story hasn't ended. I flashed the LT15i .587 firmware again and this time the phone booted successfully. I rooted and install CWM as i did before.. i rebooted my phone and when sony logo appeared i kept on pressing volume down key but it couldn't get into CWM and was stuck on sony logo.I had to pull out the battery . After that i booted my phone again without trying to get into CWM and it succeeded. So basically everything works fine except stuck on sony logo when i try to boot in CWM.
I need CWM for installing good mods and backup and all kinds of stuff but i couldn't work it out and couldn't find a thread about it. I don't wanna unlock bootloader as well. Please help !!
p.s sorry for bad English and the story seems too long and a bit confusing... i just wanna make it more detailed...
Dude, at the aame time youre flashing kernel. Thats the issue. Just flash lt18 ftf and stick with it. It should work fine. Dont revert back to a lt15 backup, because of kernel incompability.

Your only option is Flashtool if SUS does not work...
Flash the ftf file again, wipe everything and tick the "no final verification" checkbox.

This is really a strange problem indeed! I had the same issue on LB! But mine dint go to CWM and booted directly into device! I tried all sorts of solutions but in vain! At last, I just flashed entirely from the beginning.
1. FTF (Format everything)
2. Root
3. Recovery
And everything is still fine after that!
Whatever you encounter when flashing custom Rom or mods
Go to flashtool and flash back the stock firmware and root and install again .
It always effective

That's exactly what i've done.
I flash the LT18i 4.1.B.0.587 ftf( entire rom) and rooted my phone with E-root, install CWM with cmd... and it works fine if i don't try to boot into CWM. But if i press the volume down button repeatedly when sony logo appears, blue light turns on...the screen gets brighter, and then blue light disappears, and just stuck on it.

Why don't you root or install cwm via any other available methods?

You can only use the official kernel with locked bootloader
Use flashtools to flash a 1.96 tft.

Do a fresh installation of ROM and let it settle for 5mins. Then reboot your phone and let it settle for a minute, then go ahead try your camera.

You have to install recovery like CMW or TWRP so you can able to flash that camera MOD.

I'm not a user of Flash Gordon but if not working again, you need to flash it in recovery like CWM or TWRP, clear cache and dalvic and flash the camera.

[Q] Problems after unlocking bootloader

After I unlocked my bootloader, the sound stopped working and had several other problems with bugs.
At the time I did not know you should back up the TA partition and so I did not.
What should I do? My ZL is with many bug.

I've done it. I'm even using the 4.3 ROM for him.
Have blocked the bootloader too. But nothing helps.
I'll explain better: The sound does not get somehow Occasionally he decides to work for 3 minutes and then shuts down and is day to catch once. Another bug that really bothers me is that any headset only takes one hand.

Me also unlock bootloader without backup the TA partition but all working fine.
I'm afraid you have a defective unit. Your best bet try to lock the bootloader back n flash rom.

[Q] Sony xperia M CM11 imei unknown baseband unknown

hello ,
today i unlocked my bootloader got cwm and flashed CM11 but after this al was done i had 2 major problems. I have a xperia M c1905
1. when i first booted he didnt ask for my PIN to unlock my SIM and i had no service and i cant call or sent any sms , so i start searching for apps that could cause it but i could'nt find anything so i looked in setting and then i found that my imei is unknown and my baseband also
2. when my phone gets in stand-by i cant unlock my screen unless i pull my battery
EDIT: i think ive solved the 2nd problem i changed the way to unlock
is there anything i can do?
greets
Try flashing the stock firmware again and see if everything works again. If it does, flash cm again and see if there r any changes. If flashing stock firmware doesn't helo, then you probably messed up somewhere really bad in unlocking or flashing. In that case, i think itsvpermanent. Im not an expert at all in this matter but i wanted to help a brother out. Good luck

To get the firmware here is the link:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7wdGoA4WPZAY01EMG0xX1RSWmM/preview?pli=1
To install it on your phone this is what you need to do:
Download the required ftf, for u, its the 4.1.2 ftf. Place it in the firmware folder in the flashtool folders. Open flashtool. Click the lighting icon. Flashmode. Click on the firmware u want to flash. Press flash. Wait a while, while it prepares files. When it asks you to, turn off ur phone, press and hold the vol. Down button and insert the usb which is attached to the computer at the other end. Let it flash. When done, remove usb. Reboot phone.
Hope this helped:beer::screwy::beer::screwy:

well i try it as soon as possible
but i readed on other forums that changing imei in *#*#3364663#*#* will work too but it wont open anymore...
or that my fts files are corrupted or something like that , can you confirm that?
you need to flash 4.3 not 4.1.2
for the latest cm 11 update (beta 4).you need to have the 4.3 update for baseband.
source : i installed cm11 beta 4 from 4.3 with no bugs

Restart after Update

Hi
I rooted LG G3 in 4.4.2 rom to recovery some photos and then there was an update .after update the phone doesn't work normally .It restarts continual .it shows all update has been done 100% but after that it restarts. I need my contact number how can I access to my phone memory to get my contact backup .I got a backup before root but in phone memory
You can't update while rooted bad idea..You can try flashing a kdz (stock rom ) with flashtool and choose not to wipe your data this may work look in the forum on how to do this..
