Sony Ericsson :: C901 - Camera Not Working Anymore
Jan 12, 2010
My C901 camera doesn't work anymore. When I open the cam cover it just shows cyber-shot logo and goes back to the menu. can some body help me? This happened after I placed in a flash menu file. Placing the flash menu file was a success but when I used the camera it didn't work now. I just bought this. I tried removing the flash menu file, turned the phone on and off, made the latest update, and master reset.
I have my 3 y.o. K750i here. My problem is the camera button is not working anymore. I tried taking off the casing and adjusting the button but still the same. What it does is you cannot go to autofocus then take the shot.It will just go back to the original window. Any help guys? And if I'm planning for a replacement. Can you give me suggestions? I want a simple phone like the K750i but has all the features.
i want to ask C901 users to give their opinions about the phone. I have heard it has camera lens issue i.e camera lens or camera lens cover is very loose and moves a lot. Second thing i heard is that its color peels off very quickly. Can someone please confirm these issues? Also mention the color you are using i.e Silver or Black.
I´m looking for a acoustic mod that look like W995 instead of the poor one delivered by the phone from the latest update. It look and sounds like this: http://pic.gsmarena.com/vv/reviewsimg/se-c901/gsmarena_a001.png I want something like this: http://pic.gsmarena.com/vv/reviewsimg/se-w995/gsmarena_a001.png I want a totally flat frequency, is it possible? How do I do it? I really like this phoone and listen to music all day long, but it sounds terrible right now!
I've just purchased Sony Ericsson C901. This is my fourth SE phone and modding is always my thing. From removing the operator logo to changing the fonts. Just the usual interface revisions. I've never tried using patches. But I've been dying to know this: Is the camdriver for C901 Nordic Region different from that of APAC ANZ? Say in firmware version R1GA028.
Like, if I use the camdriver from Nordic version and put it in APAC ANZ firmware, it doesn't produce the same result as the original one. Or, are all C901 camdrivers the same no matter what part of the world the phone is being sold? I've updated mine from R1GA028 APAC ANZ to R1GA031 Nordic. And somehow I got the Greenheart version. And IMO, the pictures looked bad after the update.
My C901 keeps rebooting. It just gets to the main screen and then shuts down. So I cant get to the master reset menu quick enough. I've tried using re-flashing it it says I have the latest software. How do I 'force' a re-flash? I think my problems started when I loaded up Google Maps.
I need to use internet on my c901 via computer. ANyone have idea how can i connect to internet via my computer's internet connection. I use Sony Ericsson PC Suite 6.0 for this purpose. PC Suite shows me that internet is connected on my cell but it's not actually connected.
I've been the more or less happy owner of a SE C901 since Christmas now. But one thing that really annoys (and surprises me) is, that my dictionary doesn't seem to keep more than ~50 custom spelled words in the sms dictionary. Is there any way I can dedicate more of the memory card or the phones memory to this application?
Has anyone noticed their c901 when brightness adjusted to low, the screen blinks first 100% brighter when pressed/used from idle mode and then very slowly dimming to the adjusted low brightness setting? is this normal?
As title, IF i flash my c901 with C901_R1GA028_FS_APAC-ANZ_RED53 and C901_R1GA028_MAIN_APAC_FI_RED53, will I get Chinese in my phone? What if I use C901_R1GA028_MAIN_GENERIC_FI_RED53? What is the different? Who can help me with this? and where can I find custom pack for C901?
So, I did a little cam comparison between the K850 and the C901. Wanted to include the Vivaz, but unfortunately I didn't have the phone with me. Anyway, here are the pictures.
Anyone having problem with orbs/white circles when taking picture using the xenon? 4 out of 5 photos i took have these orbs. It's that bad. Can anyone help me? What should i do?
I have followed these steps: Generated CDA. Nordic language! Then followed these steps! Upload "customize_upgrade.xml" to your phone and make the CDA change. So you have generated the file and you want to get on with it? Well I'll make this as short as possible.
1. Open A2uploader. 2. Click "FileSystem Tool". Re-insert the battery of your phone then connect your USB holding '2+5' keys. Release keys '2+5' when A2uploader detects your phone. 3. Browse to "/tpa/preset/custom/". Drag and drop the "customize_upgrade.xml" file to the right pane of A2uploader. 4. Click "Shutdown FS Manager". 5. Disconnect USB cable and turn on phone. You will notice a "Please Wait" prompt. This is when the CDA is changing. When the prompt is gone, turn off your phone.
But SEUS cannot find any new firmware still? What revision should the the Customize upgrade be?
Hello guys, i am using C901 with light sensor turned off patch: ;C901 SW-R1GA028 ;Turn off the light sensor ;v. 1 ;(c) IronMaster ;(p) Xamid ;pAtChFiLe=/boot/phone_app.cxc 14140540: 0088 FF20 But the problem is that the keypad backlight is VERY dim (almost off) all the time with it. I tried to modify it a bit and used the value 0008. The result is that the light sensor is off, keypad backlight is turned on but at the cost of screen brightness which is low even at 100% brightness.So can anyone give an optimal value for this patch which turns off light sensor, turns on keypad backlight and keeps screen brightness to max (more or less)?Thanks [ This Message was edited by: killerPK on 2010-08-21 23:49 ]T610 > K700 > K750 > W810 > K800 > K810 > KU990 > K850 > U600 > KF750 > 6120C > G800 > C905 > N82 > 1202 > 6220 > Satio > C901
I have an IPhone but its camera doesn't meet my expectations, especially the nonexisting flash. So I've decided to have a phone with a real flash to take pictures. I find these two phones as the best options for me. I can understand that c901 would be better in this area because of being latest released camera phone by SE. C901 costs twice as much. Does the difference in price reflect the image quality? I mean, does the camera on c901 produce way better pictures than the one in k850i?
I have tried reading through the forums, and have found that i will need new camera driver and a music driver, for better experience, than i have now. I bought mainly the phone because of the "Threaded SMS" and the Xenon flash. So far i have tested the phone indoor, with the flash, and i'm not really that impressed with the pictures My old C902, is almost as good. So i guess a new camera driver will help? Which one is recommended? And which music driver is recommended? What about other tweak / programs, which is recommended for me? [ This Message was edited by: rasmuskarlse on 2010-06-16 19:48 ]
Was: SMS chat. How I can change the color of text in chat in my c901? I want to have white letters like the picture. I use a Themes creator but I can't change this text color.
For now i have the "Ac cu weather" standard weather app on my C901. But it's not good enough. I'm used to the great weather app on my old android phone. Where i could see the weather forecast for 5 da (Graphical, not text based, like there eis on the C901 for now). There must be a better app for the C901, to show weather forecast.
I've been trying to get my phone to connect to my existing home Internet connection, which is wireless. I gave this thought because my husband's IPhone connects to our home network so easily. How do I get my C901 to do this? Or is it not possible?
When I tried to set up the My Presence section within the phone I entered in my username, password and then it asked me for server information so I entered in what I thought was the right info, but now it keeps giving me a network error failure message.
Could somebody please mod the c901 display driver so that the light sensor is disabled and display brightness can truly be adjusted manually? I know there is a patching alternative,but a modded display driver would be much more convenient.
I noticed that my text message that are saved in memory stick are lost after I update the software version. I would like to ask is there any way to recover the text message saved in my memory stick for C901?
Can any one help me to what to do for my c905 camera because its stop at working by it self by showing a message " press 0 for help " sp what should i do?
I am having a lot of trouble with my Vivaz. A couple of days ago I was in the middle of texting and I thought it was kind of odd that I had to wait a long time for a reply, so I checked my phone inbox and I had a new message but my phone did not alert me in any way. The envelope new message symbol didn't even show up at the top of the screen. The problem has now got worse and it has permanently been like this the past day. My message tone wont go off when I get a new message, "new message" doesn't pop up, and the symbol at the top doesn't pop up either. Because I now have a constant obsession with checking my phone every 5 seconds since it doesn't alert me anymore.
Two weeks ago I bought a new Sony Ericsson Aspen for my daughter, While unlocking the phone today the phones operating system crashes. All attempts to switch off the phone failed so my daughter removed the battery and tried to restart the phone. Without success. The Sony Ericcson logo is shown accomplished with a short vibration. This continues in an endless loop. The only way to stop the phone is to remove the battery again. Pressing the rest button has no effect, the described behaviour continues.
