Problem exists in the stock rom too?
Well flash the camera patch u may find in the thread where u downloaded the rom.

If you have KA12 rom and installed it freshly then you have to patch it with Neo V patch, even i have the same problem but after i patched it works fine.

I think you are with Neo drivers on Neo V,flash the Neo V camera patch that will restore Neo V drivers

Always specify full details for what u did...that makes finding the solution lot easier...the rom u flashed...device...do what thilina told...and read the rom thread carefully before trying.

Like @unisol107 said, first provide all the details of your device!
Device name, ROM, kernel etc..
It would be easier for the members to find a solution to your problem then!

Front Camera not working! Bricked phone?

[Q] I really need some expert help on this guys!
<b>2012-03-23 updates on what further tests I've done:</b>
I've just flashed MT15i-Global.tft using latest flashtool in flashmode.
= did not work
Then tried wotanclient = did not work
Made fresh install of ICS beta(2different roms) = did not work
Please help me get my front cam working !
A few months ago the front Camera worked on my Neo but not anymore.
I cant really say if it just stopped working or had something to with flash of another rom.
I've rooted and flashed a number of phones before so i have some basics in this..
Currently running ICS on my Neo.
What I've tried to do to fix it.
1. Use SEUS but it said I have a modified android version and would let me restore...
2. WotanClient which restored it to .62 2.3.4. Failed at first attempt but succeeded at 2nd. >> front cam didnt work afterwards.
3. Tried other ICS roms and made several attempts.
The steps i took on installing another rom:
- installed fastboot
- connected phone
- run fastboot flash boot xxxx.img
- go into recovery
- wipe all, wipe cache, format system, dalvik and battery stats
- install xxx.zip
- up and running with non working front cam
Questions!:
1. How can I make a TOTAL restore of both bootloader, kernel, rom and everything to the stock firmware it got shipped with????? A step by step would be appreciated!
2. Any steps that I could have missed??
3. Anyone with similar problems?
4. How can I put it back to 100% stockrom to get warranty back and perhaps send on service?
FYI
The back camera also behaves strange on the ICS rom in skype/tango video call. It is miscolored.. On 2.3.4 it was ok.
Weird. Could this all be a firmware issue?
Can some provide all the tools i need to get it working? Or can I extract some logs or something that would help you find out if the front cam really is broken??
Where can I test the front cam or are there any appa to specifically test it in any way??
Desperate regards !

If it doesn't work after flashing official 2.3.4 firmware in flashtool with a full wipe, I'm out of ideas.
Does flashing with wotanclient really flash Everything?? Kernel, loader rom and wipes everything?? If the phone hasnt got a hardware fault something, it must be some step i did that sctewed something up.. Could try wotan again though but would rather have more people look into this before strarting flashing.
Afaik Wotan flashes / wipes everything and gets you back to clean Stock!
BUT, i already got problems wotan flashing / discovering the wrong phone type.
While i was trying out some different Kernels on my Phone (Mt11i SE NEO V), it seems that i picked a wrong Kernel and my Phone was showing me the Model Mt15i (SE NEO).
And even Wotanclient discovered a Mt15i...
Didn´t try the front camera at this point, but back cam was not working.
I tried to manually flash Mt11i Stock Rom/ Kernel (0.62) using flashtool.
Well flashtool did it´s work not completely, but far enough to reset the Model to Mt11i and Wotan flashed the correct Version afterwards.
My Hint, have a look at the Modellnumber in Settings, is it the right one ?

front camera solution
Hello and sorry for continuing this thread, but i have a query about the front camera of xperia neo v.
As all the above, I have the same problem with my front camera and I was wondering if I could somehow get the camera's apk file from gingerbread (the whole camera application - which is believed to be the last application compatible with the camera),would this solve the problem?
I am addressing aspecially to the developers .....
If anybody knows a way to solve this, please send me inbox a guideline.
Thanks in advance.
:good:
May be below the info can help you about the stock rom flash
1. Find the bootloader locker ftf (firmware file) file for Neo from the Internet (else inbox me I will find and will give you. I have that file but it's Neo V only). Once you flashed this file then Sony updater service will reconognize your device and do the update properly
2. Install Sony updater service
3. Connect your phone and choose the phone model then update to ICS
Hit thanks if it helped

What do you mean with WIFI fixed? can your phone connect to your AP?
Did u install kernel provided by MiniCMSandwich? If not then you should..
What phone are you using?
My SK17i use MiniCMSandwich RC3 too..and got no problem with Wifi or Mobile Data..
According to me, this ROM works only with its own kernel, correct me if I am wrong.
Which network setting do you have? Does changing location help? Airplane mode?
Do you have correct kernel and ROM installed? What kind of error do you get? No service or what?
Sent from my WT19i using xda premium
Make sure you
- flash the provided Kernel that comes with the ROM
- then full factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik
- flash rom
I had to do it twice, Data didn't work on first try, I guess the Kernel flashing went wrong, but now everything works fine

APNs are not related to making calls at all. Changing these does not help.
May I ask how to flash a custom kernel on the sk17i? I flashed the MiniCMSandwhich ROM but i did it with the stock kernel, so it got stuck at the boot logo... So i need to know how to flash the right kernel to a sk17i.
Also, i think someone (maybe me if i manage to get MiniCM working) should make a tutorial on how to get MiniCM running starting at an unrooted phone updated to the latest stock Sony formware. I thing that that would be helpfull to a lot of people.
Thanks in advance!

Kernel installation is in my tutorial, link in my signature.
Thanks a lot, i saw and read your tutorial before, but i must have missed the kernel part , I think ill do that later today. But for now, there is no way of flashing a new kernel without unlocking the bootloader is there?

Ok the big benefits of spacious come from the init tweaks, look at the thread for enabling init.d on stock Rom, copy the files from the init zip to the spacious zip.
Make sure you are on 431 back up and have the ftf to hand, reboot to cwm, factory reset, wipe dalvik, install your modified Rom, reboot and cross your fingers.

thanks for letting me know about that. In rom info we can find info that rom is working on locked bootloaders... I heard that only wifi is not working and not sure if is the same with new versio of that rom as well...
Thanks for all info! Will try it soon anyway!
One more question, when I have locked bl than when installing wrong rom with flashtool or cwm way can I break phone ? I don't think so but prefer to ask anyway...

[Q] MT11i Touchscreen Not Working On Every JB Kernel

Hi,
I have a problem making JB ROM to work on my Neo V. My situation is like this:
I have an MT11i with unlocked bootloader. I was trying to install MIUI v5 with Fusion Kernel v5.5 (latest version i believe). The installation finished without any problem. But after the first boot, my touchscreen doesn't work. I can't even select anything on the screen. It's not responding. Only buttons such as back, home, menu, vol up, vol down, power and camera does work, nothing more.
Here's how i do it :
1. Flash stock FTF,
2. Flash stock FTF again - without kernel and baseband (as suggested in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273017&page=16 comment #155)
3. I flashed Fusion Kernel v5.5 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1926299)
4. Rebooted into CWM and installed the MIUI v5 3.6.21_v2
5. Finished installation, reboot into system
6. Stuck at MIUI Welcome Screen
I know this question has been asked elsewhere in the forum. I did searched for it. But i didn't found any thread that had this problem solved. FYI, i also have tried every JB kernels that i know (LuPUS, Fusion, TWRP and so on) but always got the same result.
My touchscreen works flawlessly if im using any ICS based rom. But not JB rom.
Does anyone had any idea what caused this? Can i still have the chance to install JB into my phone?
You seem to be the only one with this problem. Could it be you have a hardware issue?

I am not sure if it is hardware issue. But why it would work without problem on ICS kernel and rom? I will try to get the logcat of it, though i think it would be difficult without being able to enable usb debugging on the MT11i.

Just now, i was able to pull the logcat output for several moments on the phone. Also, i have used AndroidSystemInfo hardware listing. But i am so new with reading the logcat file.
I have attached both file. See if someone could help me find out the cause.
I ended up using xperia ultimate HD rom 3.0.2 with Holo launcher. Turn up it did pretty well. Feels like JB though. Mybe i'll continue with the problem some other time. For now ill just be fine with this rom. Thanks anyway guys.
