Camera Problem Xperia SP

nsbowler — Tue, 22 Apr 2014 09:10:05 GMT

Hello everyone.

I have the SP model since July 2013. I have the latest update (Jelly Bean 4.3 12.1.A.201). My camera is still capturing photos with too much light on them. I have already tried to adjust with the manual camera settings, I have already used Sony Update Service and Sony PC Companion. Nothing seems to be able to solve this kind of problem. I must mention that with the 4.1 software, pictures were extremely good.

Any kind of help will be much appreciated.

(sorry for my rusty English)

On XDA site it says that when you reboot your phone camera app goes back to original. They stated that as a bug. So you can try rebooting your phone. Or

Go to settings, apps, slide right to see all, find camera, tap on it, you'll see a button that says uninstall updates, hit that and it'll ask if you want to revert back to original, tap yes then it'll be back to stock cam.

Hi, Ogu

I have rebooted my XSP many times, but the camera still playing dumb.

There's no "Uninstall updates" availavle for the Camera on my App settings

Hello 3xperia,

I acutally tried to install and uninstall the ported app. At first I found it where I said it is and uninstalled the updates but camera crashed whenever I tired to open it after that. So I re-installed the ported app and this time rebooted my phone and camera reverted back to original by itself.

Maybe after you rebooted it already reverted back to original, did you check the version number of camera? It should be 1.0.0

Yeah it is version 1.0.0.

There's no Uninstall option either, just a disable. I'm starting to hate Sony phone cameras. BIG MEGA PIXEL, BUT SUPER MEGA BLURRY. It's worthless and useless, completely pointless.

Sony, Please give more more good camera app. I saw "dm84" told that xperia m's camera app gives more steady pictures form xperia sp even in low light. So i suggest sony can optimize xperia m's camera app for our sp and give it officially for us. How do you think about my suggetion?

If the version is 1.0.0 then it is the original one you cannot uninstall that but I agree photos lack sharpness, colors get weird too. I didn't find m's app to be drastically better.

There's NO application on Play store can fix SXP's camera, nor any settings, reboot/restart, clear cache/data, or factory reset.

Sony software team is in charge. Doh!!!!!

already tried that pal. Unfortunately it didn't work. I'll try to change the camera outside glass, 'cause it seems to be scratched. Hope this will solve the problem.
