Hi guys,
I've got a strange issue on my z1c running newest lollipop. While trying to make any photo, the view is very blurry, after pushing camera button, phone tries to get focus, but it is freezed, and view is constantly blurred, so the phone does not take any photos.
Please help :crying:
Exact same problem here, I was just about to open my own thread about this!
My phone is a brand new Z1C (Amazon); came with .108 firmware and the camera worked fine, decided to upgrade to .270 (via the PC Companion software), and now I'm experiencing the exact same problem!
Would a possible solution be to flash the system/kernel of a working .242 or .270 ftf using flashtool?

I recently upgraded my Sony Xperia S (LT26) to Android 4.1.2 and everything was working well for a week... until the camera stopped mid-photo. I had been taking photos during the day and everything was fine, so I tried to start up the camera again and it crashed and said 'Camera not available'. I restarted the phone, but still the same issue.
I tried clearing all camera settings, tried a full settings reset, tried using the Sony Update Service to reinstall the 500MB update then tried a complete factory reset (including photos etc), but still nothing.
Any ideas what I can else I can do?
You could try flashing Cm10...
But for this you have to unlock your Bootloader.

I think something wrong with your file. Download ftf file in here and try to install ftf file for Jellly bean using flashtool.
Same Proble on xperia P !

Thanks, but unfortunately that didn't work either! I tried both the .200 and .211 files, but neither made a difference.
Could it be something to do with water damage, even if the water happened 3 months ago (and it's been fine since)?
Guys,
I received and installed OTA update for my LG G3 D855 (2/16gb) to V20E-eur-XX couple of days ago.
Phone is NOT rooted.
I'm not happy with update. Everything seems to be lagging more and more and on top of that, I can't start camera at all. When I tap onto Camera icon, I get "Camera can't connect" error.
Please, help me, I'm very mad on LG right now.
Thank you in advance.

Just wipe data/factory reset it. Hope it helps you. If not root and install a custom rom like S3V3N !
Thx, scamex. Both proposed solutions are valid, but I would like to hear some other, bc factory reset is a pain and I don't know if that'll work.
On the other side, I don't want to root.
same issue here. after taking few pictures and video. it suddenly says cant connect to camera even i switched to google camera.
i just restarted the phone and the camera now works.
Hey there,
yeah, after updating to firmware V10f-AME-XX the frontcamera of my G4 has stopped working. Notification is: Unfortunately, the camera has stopped. The camera opens, but then, after two seconds, the screen freezes and the notification appears.
Any suggestions? I was thinking of flashing back to another firmware, but to be honest, i have no idea how to do this and above all, find the correct firmware for the LG-818p
Thanks for helping me...
Hello all,
I rooted my G4 ( h815, rooted v10b ) with this tricks : http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/root-tmo-vzw-intl-variants-soon-root-lg-t3164765
All was perfect, until one day, my camera sometimes didn't launch and make reboot my phone.
So I decided to update my phone to MM. ( so I unrooted the phone and update it with lg bridge )
But the probelm is still here under MM !
There is 3 sort of possibilities when I launch the camera :
- the camera work
- the camera app crash
- the phone reboot
After a reboot of the phone, the camera always work. But after sometimes it crash again and I need to reboot.
What do you think of that ?
Thanks.
Same here
I am having exactly the same problem.
I had not rooted my phone, it started happening after the MM upgrade.
Another upgrade came out recently and it seems to happen far less so I am convinced it is software related.
Did you have any luck with finding a solution.
Thanks
Hello,
I didn't have another upgrade, I'm on v20d.
The problem is still here and now it happens really often.
I'm sending it now for reparation, but I hope they will fix it and not just hard reset the phone....
Hello everyone
I have a lenovo vibe p1a42
When i bought this phone i was initially able to update without any problem til build no. S147_151288_ROW. But after that when i received notification of new update available, i downloaded it bt I cannot update it. I tried it several time. Every time it jist takes me to recovery mode, starts updating then at 24% it fails. I tried updating manually. I also tried using Lenovo Smart Assistant. But all of them give same result.
I am unable to uodate any furture. Can u tell me what should i do? I hear that this phone has now MM update too, bt i'm stuck.
Also, my phone has stopped vibrating. No vibration on anything. The vibration does works sometimes, bt again stops working in few min. I dont know whether this is software related or h/w prob. I will take it to service center if the problem doesnt solve on updating the os.

I wanted to try tht but i cannot find a link for s152 version file. I tried contacting lenovo through their official forum, they said bring it to service center. I think i ll just do that only. Since i anyway had to go there for my vibration problem.
BTW Thank you for reply.

I understand your pain.... lenovo OTA updates are very finicky. If you want marshmallow you can straightaway flash that ROM (the latest one is S285).
But please make sure to backup your data since this will definitely wipe all your data (same as factory reset). There is thread in on this forum which gives a fairly easy steps on flashing ROMs folr Vibe P1.
If you want to root your android 6.0 though, thats a different story.
Still have a look here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/vibe-p1/development/qpst-flashing-vibeui-3-1-s272-rom-t3386650
You can flash ROM fairly easily from flashing steps mentioned in above thread. If you feel rooting steps are complex, you can still stay on unrooted rom, at least it will be the latest one.
