[TEST] Repair broken camera firmware - XPERIA X10 Android Development

Hey,
some of you had interupted the camera firmware upgrade to original Eclair (2.1) Update. This is caused because you shut off the phone when you saw the flashing Camera Icon on the phone. THIS WAS THE CAMERA FIRMWARE UPDATE!
The User lipali reported that it works, so i decided to make a little batch-script for you.
Note: You should be on a ROOTED original SE Eclair Rom (2.1) to have all needed scripts in place.
1.) Activate USB-Debugging on phone
2.) EXTRACT the attached ZIP file
3.) Connect your phone to PC
4.) Start the RunMe.bat and follow the instructions
Please report if this works for you, this is a TEST!
Dont blame me if you **** up your phone in some way.
Best Regards
Bin4ry

I just hope the cam shall be fixed It'll be epic

Thanks a lot dude, I was looking for these files !
Gotta test this...

It works!!!
What iI've done?
copy files from Bin4ry to folders /system/etc/firmware and /system/bin
In next step I goes to the root explorer and execute script init.es09ra.rc. Later I rebooted phone. Waiting while icons with camera and phone is blinking (few long minutes...) and after that phone rebooted. Later I start camera apps and.. it works... THANKS A LOT (yes, this is scream ) And sorry for my english. I'm so excited.

.............

what does this actually do ? does it fix video camera for 2.2?

SE 2.1 (.435) But, i think it will be working on every rom. Just execute this script

This is for fixing camera when it broke while updating 1.6 -> 2.1 and not for Custom ROMs.

Ah I thought this was a miracle for 2.2/2.3

No, but since it's already properly decompiled, it may be the key the dev's need to get HD cam running on 2.3/2.3

This is a fix of non working cameras for the few unlucky failing upgrade of ROM from 1.6 to 2.1.
NOT FOR 2.2/2.3.

Some people reported that Camera Stopped working after the upgrade from 1.6 to 2.1. Do you remember that after updating there was an image with an Arrow and the Camera? Well, some users rebooted the phone while doing this process wich pretty much ****ed up the camera and was useless no matter what 2.1 firmware you flash on it because the camera was ****ed up since the beginning.
So Bin4ry compiled the script and now all those users with problems can upgrade the camera and have it fully working on 2.1
That's what i get from it... I could be wrong

[ROM] | AOSP | 2.1 [WiP]

These roms are flashable with xRecovery 0.1 (backup restore)
update 1
slightly updated AOSP rom to try :
AOSP 2.1 v.0.1
update 2
firmware load fixed, vibrate fixed, some other small fixes.
AOSP 2.1 v.0.2
Todo:
Voicecalls (GSM/3G)
Location services
Google checkin provider
Camera
reserved.............
only if we could mount sdcard and start adb logcat we could investigate further..
It was nice to roam around in 2.2
If we want to create working rom we should know which files from the original ROM are the drivers so we can take them and try to put them in the custom rom.Otherwise froyo will not be able to interact with our specific hardware.
you can ask some one more experians in custom roms so he could recognise the drivers
even if he don't have x8
remember: just ask for help , dont be rude and ask for custom rom
sorry for my bad english and for my interrubed
i am building a working one please wait. i have discovered the drivers and etc.
When it will be ready for test?

Best of Luck mate....
any progress? any good news for 2.2 froyo for our x8s??
any updates about the custom 2.2 froyo rom ?
now a little bit work, but just some minutes, and it says system is not responding and restart, but not full restart, just it get to the boot animation and then start.
the first step: i have to make it work, patches and drivers the second step. i tryed much thing to get working it, and i am sure i am not as far as i was.
I really hope that you will get this running because as it seams this will be the only way to get Froyo or Gingerbread on our X8.
Hope you will make this works. And if I can help with something let me know.
Hope this helps zdzihu released sources for his x10 froyo rom

Maybe it's power managment, display, or some other driver problem? Or kernel?

Xrecovery with offline charging

NOTICE: This isn't my work. I've just followed this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=963162 to make it work on X8
All thanks goes to zdzihu for xrecovery and offline charging fix and to genyt and weissgold for their guide
For stock 2.1.1.A.0.6 firmware (don't work with custom roms):
Installation:
1. root phone
2. install Busybox
3. download xrecovery with offline charging.zip
4. extract archive to SD Card
5. with Root Explorer put extracted files to /system/bin
Or install latest xRecovery with FlashTool 0.2.8
For custom roms you also need the files in /system/etc/semc/chargemon/ from stock ROM.

thank you very much friend
just asking...does it makes stuck on boot?(offline charging for floyo 0.15)...sorry if i ask this thanks before mate...
progress : after installed my phone get force close all app...i use offline charging floyo 0.015 on my floyo
Don't know where is problem. For me it runs ok
i have follow the instruction clearly...or it should be install the xrecovery files first from the attachment(that seems x10 xrecovery..if i'm not wrong) and then copy those floyo offline charging files?...for you it runs ok,but not on my phone.so wierd isn't it?
Yes it is weird. You don't need to install xrecovery it is preinstalled in floyo. You only need to put chargemon and charger to /system/bin and semc folder to /system/etc
yep...that was i'm doin' as your instructions...twice i try and unsucsessfull,the x recovery can't runs when i pressing the back button on booting...
fully working on stock 2.1.1.A.0.6 THANKS!
I'm stock in sony ericsson logo..

Rom is pre-rooted
xRecovery preinstalled
Includes reboot to "Bootloader/Recovery/Reboot" script

3MPX Camera,
GSM,
Youtube normal & HD,
Screen rotation,
Market,
Headphones detection
^^for sure
not sure about the rest - didn't test
Bugs:
Video Recording
SD Card Safe to Remove!!!! after exiting Root Explorer
Autobrightness doesn't work properly
EDIT:
ROM is light, fast & quite stable - some FCs (Youtube first run, Root Explorer first run, Market random), but only at the beginning... the more I use it the less FCs I get! No random reboots apart from su apps.

[GUIDE] How to get fully camera with deep sleep and 3rd party apps working on ICS ROM

Press THANKS button if this guide helps you.
Since we know that CM9 RC2 is too buggy, we are forced to use RC1 instead, until its fixed by Wayland.
This is just for you guys stop once for all asking about etas and other stuff anoying.
Please, after read this, dont make any question about camera, kernel updates or deep sleep.
Follow this and get the RC1 ROM from Maclaw working with 100% camera from RC2, but without its bugs like GPS and Bluetooth not working, SDEXT not recognized etc...
BEFORE you start flashing this, make sure you have enough space on system/app, because libs and camera app from RC2 are bigger than RC1's. Delete some ringtones you dont use or some apps. The same for kernel, the dev says about 4~5 MB free space, i recommend about 7MB, for kernel and camera app. (delete the CMWallpapers apk, it has 7,04MB, and im sure you dont use it)
1st, download Maclaw's CM9 RC1 ROM
DOWNLOAD
If you already have it, skip this step, if you dont, make a full wipe then flash it. Reboot your phone.
2nd, download Nims Kernel 2.1 with Camera app and libs fully fixed from RC2
DOWNLOAD
You don't need to mount this, just flash it. After flash, reboot your phone. If everything was right, the screen "Updating/Starting Apps" should appear. When the system starts, test the Camera app, it should start normally, if you get some FC screen, or "Cannot conect the camera" message, try to re-open the app. This message will appear sometimes, even in 3rd party apps, like Instagram, but is just you re-open it.
3rd, download the lastest Nims Kernel available
DOWNLOAD version 2.2.1 for ICS ROM
This ZIPs files are from this thread, i just put them together for make it easier for you guys.
I'm not responsable if it bricks your phone.
For me and a lot of people it works.
this was what I needed, now I'll change to ics again and finally I definitely thank you very much

If you follow this guide exactly as you put it, you will end in a bootloop just like me.Explain better
Very good work
Well just tried all the steps above but sadly it isn't working .
After I flashed nim's 2.1 kernel the phone boot into system upgrading screen and stuck there , I did a restart and the phone got stuck on a boot loop.
Flashing nim's 2.2 kernel after that didn't helped either ..
Please explain the procedure in more details.
Thanks Devs!

You might do something wrong...
you dont need to mount system for flashing this zips....
Try to make a full wipe and flash RC1 again, reboot as normal. After that flash cam app and libs with nims kernel 2.1. Reboot again.
Then flash Nims kernel 2.2
Just for guarantee, after you wipe install RC1, delete somethings you dont use in system/app, because cam app is biggest than RC1's.
Some screens of this working properly
Nice tips, thanks. Can I ask you a question??? Does this ROM drains battery much??? The last time I use it, it drains like hell. I need to know if it still drains battery so I can apply your tips
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app
Well got this thing working , Thanks @jmendes.
Edit : After using this ROM for a while I found out that deep sleep isn't working .. ( google location was off )
For me deep sleep works until i take some 5 pics... after that the camera stops and i need to re-open it. Then deep sleep sucks as well :c

ROM stays unchanged. If you had use RC1 when it was out, it keeps the same way. Obviously, battery will drain faster than CM7, but it just need some adjustments by the devs, hope itll fixed in Wayland's release
It might even "work" (not sure if the need for closing and re-opening the camera app several times means fully working...) but I doubt the quality of the pictures will be as good as in a GB based ROM.
For me or anyone who uses the camera sometimes and don't want crappy quality pictures, any ICS or JB ROM shouldn't be considered for now. In fact, without OpenMax drivers I guess we'll never see camera working properly on Galaxy Ace running ICS and JB

Jesus Christ! Fully working for our situation means a app who opens and take a photo with auto focus, flash working properly, with all configurations available with a gallery without bugs AND apps 3rd party accessing camera drivers! It's known that it has a lot of bugs, but its better than an app that just take pictures and break deep sleep resource. Everybody knows that OpenMax drivers wont be release for us, and a camcoder wont be available either, bbut they are really working hard to give us a decent camera. The quality is the same on GB. As you said, "shouldnt be considered for now" so dont use it. If you think it's not worth it, stay with your 2.3 version.

Hmm, you said that flash is working properly ... is the LED working for flashlight apps as well in this ROM ? Last time I tested CM9, it wasn't working and flashlight is very very useful, can't live without it. If yes, I'll try it.
By "camera working properly" I meant taking photos with good quality, and auto-focus and flash both working. That is enough. I did'nt say "fully working".

Go until Wayland's CM9 topic and you will see that for this he will need to put a modified app for flashlight working. But still works.
And yes, the quality keeps as in GB. With auto focus, flash and cam modes working rightly

No man its been the same , but i didnt try another rom so , but i doubt it is the cyanogenmod causing the problem since it always worked great, i just want to know if this is a hardware problem or software one.

If back button stops working sometimes, try opening keyboard(xperia or aosp whichever) and then try again to see if back button works or not.
If it works- it means your keyboard gets killed and as a result back button stops working or you have greenified keyboard or it occurs after you exit from heavy games. Try it

Hi Guys
Well my phone have the Cyanogenmod Cm 11 Kit Kat 4.4.4 installed and was working really fine , now it has the last update from cyanogenmod, and the other day without any drop or whatever ,my touchscreen started to fail a bit like sometimes it responded and sometimes not, to the point where now the only key that works is the back key and the physical home button, everything else is dead i cant touch anywhere now, can you tell me if this is a hardware problem or a software ? i installed many versions of cyanogenmod to test, but the screen still dont respond, now i have installed the last update 4.4.4, need help please.
Thanks

Can someone explani me these steps better? do i need to go to CWM to install the zips? or just with the flashtool? Im newbie in this
Fix 9: By flashing Real ICS R6: (Credits: Kenzeu ; here)
Steps:
1. Flash .62 firmware for your device
2. Flash rage kernel for gingerbread
3. Flash Real ICS R6 rom (choose the wrong device)
4. Reboot (don't pull the battery, boot it. If it's no booting for nearly 3 minutes, pull battery and go on)
5. Flash the stock firmware for your device
6. Touch should work now!

Real ICS R6 rom should be in your memory card
First flash 0.62 ftf file using flashtool program
Now flash rage kernel using flashtool program
Go to CWM, flash Real ICS rom...... but select wrong device e.g if your mobile is mini pro, select satsuma(active) as your phone
Reboot (don't pull the battery, boot it. If it's no booting for nearly 3 minutes, pull battery and go on)
Flash again 0.62 ftf using flashtool program
Check if touch is working now
If unsuccessfull, try other methods.. no choice:crying:
If all methods fail, then only repair the touchscreen. By friend also had sam problems but after such tedious process his touchscreen worked finally

Have you tried this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2104484
If all methods fail from here, then may be it has some hardware problem
