Xperia S ICS Camera Problem

littleggyy — Sat, 22 Sep 2012 21:22:24 GMT

I updated to ICS today.

Apart from the Storage Problem, my camera does not seem to work at all.

When I press the physical camera button or go into menu and press the Camera app button, it would show up as Camera Not Available.

Are there anyway to solve this without factory reset?

Thanks.

backup all your pictures, videos and music and clean/wipe out the internal memory

settings > storage (scroll to the bottom)

it seems that you probably disable an app and that's why its causing this problem. repair your phone with SUS and try again if it doesn't work then try the above suggestion

Update Service (SUS)

I tried factory reset. It's working now.

But I backed up my phone with PC Companion. Apparently, it backs up your photos, videos, msgs but NOT contacts.

I can't believe it, Sony!!!

the Xperia S running ICS has a backup & restore app, so you can backup pretty much everything

also check the suggestions above
