Xperia Z2 :: Camera App - Black Screen With Control Buttons When Opened
May 26, 2015
I have Z2 with latest 5.0 build (28). 1-2 days since i updated my phone, camera app stopped working. I open it and it's just a black screen with control buttons. It doesn't  make pictures. I tried to reset my phone with PCC, but problem stayed. I downloaded other camera apps from Play Market and they also didn't work, then i turned off stock camera app (in settings) and other camera apps worked fine. When i turn stock camera app back it works for some hours and then again black screen.
My xperia z2 camera isn't working. When i open the camera, only show the black screen with camera key and settings and take pictures but it is just black. The front camera is working well.
I am constantly pressing the rewind or fast forward button when trying to pause or play the audio by using the controls on the lock screen. I normally listen to audio podcasts or audio books, and these are usually 2 hours plus long. When you hit the FFW button it's not a big issue and it will retain it's place, but if you are in the middle of an 11 hour audio book and you hit the rewind button it takes you all the way back to the beginning. That works properly, but I am constantly hitting the RWD or FFW button because they are so close to the play button.
the option to have the side buttons control screen rotation is Massively Useful. It would be so much easier to do that as a shortcut, rather than having to go to settings etc every time to turn it on and then back again to turn rotation off.requently I want the screen to rotate for just a couple of images, and then flip it back to static. We can make this happen
I'm facing problem with my Xperia Z2 after updating to lollipop 23.1.A.0.726My front camera stopped working, when I try to switch to the front camera the screen goes to black.I made restore factory settings, repair by Sony pc companion
I was taking some picture and suddenly I got a black screen. Then whenever I use the rear camera it gives me only black screen if I tried to take photo it took a while then give me a defect photo that i can't open. It doesn't work for both photos and videos. The front camera works fine. I noticed also that I have an issue with the flash too that when I open it I can't close it except with a restart.  I have tried the following:
1-) force shutdown with power button and volume up 2-) force shutdown with the off key. 3-) factory reset 4-) repair through pc companion.  but unfortunately all doesn't work.
From 10 tentatives that I tried to open the camera, in 4 times the camera crash ... A black screen occur, until the message "App camera must be closed" or a lot of red/pink lines occurs in the image and freeze the camera app too. Â I saw red lines with my S3 with Cyanogen OS ... It's appears conflict between software x hardware...
I've had my Xperia Z2 for about a month, three days ago the camera wouldn't start. When I open the app the screen is black. It's also the same if I try to start the camera using Instagram or Snapchat. I've tried to restart the unit and cacheclan phone to see if storage was the problem. I`ve also tried to connect to the "update service" but when I hold the "volume down button" and connect the usb I get a message that the program can't find the unit. Starting to be a bit frustrated. I'ts just problem with the front/main camera, not the small one.
Newbie here with a brand spanking new Xperia 8.This may seem petty, but on the camera viewing screen there are two black lines down either side, similar to a widescreen TV broadcasting a show that is in a non-widescreen normal format.
I have convinced myself that I have done something to make this happen and that it wasn't like that at first. So my question is, can these be removed in some setting somewhere is this how it actually is all the time?
I have bought Xperia z3 for 2 months. I have just noticed something that might be a problem with my camera. Â In camera mode (both video and camera)Â sometime the screen shows soft black wave running from top to bottom (for more understanding about "black wave" just like when you focus the camera on TV screen). However I didn't focus my camera on TV screen anymore. The problem last for 1-5 minutes. When this problem occurred If I go on and take a photo sometime the wave could be captured into my photo as well but mostly these running black wave can not be captured into the photo. Â (I have attached a photo taken when the running black wave problem occurred and this time it was captured in my photo.
The screen of my iPhone 4 suddenly went irresponsive and within a few seconds it went completely black. I tried to power it off and also tried the home button but nothing seems to be responding.Â
Incoming calls still ring out but I am not able to answer the calls and cannot see anything on the screen.Â
I connected it to my laptop, the iphone appears on "my computer" and I was able to see pictures and videos that are on the phone, however iTunes cannot detect the devise.Â
My iphone is frozen, won't go to black scree and doesn't respond to any button pushing. Attempted to power it off but it doesn't respond to that either.
So i don't know what i did but all i know was that I picked it up off the floor after it fell out of my pocket when sitting down on the ground. And then i tried to click every button possible (home and lock) but it wasn't responding. So my friend decided to call it and I received the call but the screen stays black.
From time to time I encounter such a problem that navigation buttons disappears completely and there is only black bar on the bottom.
Last time it happened when I closed a game, nothing was there on the bottom, unable to click it. The only solution was to restart the phone or simply drop-down the top menu bar and then the buttons appeared again.Â
my iphone4 camera screen is completely black when i turn the camera on. it just started today. up until last night it was working fine. if i switch the camera to reverse side towards me, it works fine as well. only when it's towards the object, the screen is totally black. what should i do?
My camera on-screen buttons disappear whenever its trying to focus. It gives me a hard time to take pictures. This happens regardless of the settings or mode the camera is on. Because of this I was forced to use Google camera.
My previous phone (HTC One) was able to control applications like Spotify with the volume buttons on the side of the phone even when the phone was locked. I can't for the life of me figure out a way to convince this device to do anything other than volume control with the volume rocker. I'd just like to use the volume control with short clicks, but if I do a long press it doesn't something else (this may have been a feature of Cyanogen that I was using previously?).
I'd like to use a Long hold on up and down to Next Track / Previous Track for Spotify. Right now if I do this, instead it just blows out my ear drums by maxing the volume quickly. Are there apps that allow me to customize what the volume rocker does in specific states?
Also, does this phone not intelligently recognize the difference between headphones being plugged in vs plugging it into an Auxillary jack? That was something else that worked well on my One as well.
I just downloades some MP3 files on my BB. I only can control the music (stop, pause or mute it), while I am in the music interface ('now playing' mode). When I go to an other interface or home screen, i cannot control the audio with the buttons anymore.
I somehow discovered how to program custom remotes before simply setting up my main TV to a pre-programmed one (Samsung). When I did discover the built-in remote for the Samsung, I noticed the volume & channel rocker buttons are HUGE compared to the ones available for building your own remote.
Any app compatible with the s6 that will allow me to long press the up and down vol buttons to skip to next track/prev track, especially when the screen is off?
I have reset all settings. Sometimes when I press the volume up button the ringer symbol shows up. When I double tap the home button a slide to the left the volume is completely none. I cannot slide or use the buttons to change.
My iPhone 4 is 4 months old and the rear camera hasnt been working, the flash didnt work for a while, but now its working .my camera will show a black screen with all the buttons and stuff at the top, cant use front camera either, do i need a new rear camera?
