front facing camera problem

My camera works fine but when I go to take a photo with my front facing camera the screen stays black and it wont load anything.


I've master reset my phone and I have force quit the camera app in settings as well. After I master reset my phone it worked once and hasn't since. Real big bummer.

If I asked about it then I did. If youre there then you're there. Easiest thing to do is ask the person selling a very expensive phone to you about the phone. I mean, it's most likely that they know about it since it is literally in a case filled with water for display. I also have did a restart on my phone. I know it was closed because I was holding the phone. I also checked if anything comes was open. Anyways, it also tells you if it is open.

you claim all that, but correct me if i'm wrong, you are posting because water got in your phone, right?

That's the thing I know it didn't but it shows signs of it. From steam in my camera but that's always been a problem. Water shouldn't have gotten in it because it was on very slow paste rides. At the end you would get the shower of water but that never affected anything. I did however go to the area where there is a wave pool but I'm not that stupid to goto a deep end of strong currents.

Hello i have a problem with my front facing camera on my c5 ultra E5553.When i use my default camera app my back camera works fine but the softkey to switch to the front has disappeared after getting a camera error notification. I have done everything from factory reset to software repair using xperia companion nothing work. This is bad cause my brother has a xperia z3 and his camera has issues aswell.Maybe samsung is a better and more quality brand cause sony keeps letting me down and im in love with sony products well i "was" . Its a software problem and ppl all over from st lucia looking fo solutions for there phone..im the only one with a c5 ultra in my country because i dont follow the crowd casue every network provider promotes samsung. I promated your phones jus by owning one people would be amazed when they look at my C5 Ultra usually they use my phone more than i do ..just tothe front camera and other features ...SO like i hv to but my c5ultra down...:smileycry: just like my xperia l  ..SONY PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ITS JUST A SOFTWARE ISSUE FOR CRYING OUT LOUD..JUS REMEBERED RICH PEOPLE DONT REALLY CARE BOUT PEOPLE LIKE US

After I experienced the same camera problem with my Aqua M4,I am surprised to find out how many Xperia users suffering from the front camera problem. And another thing I found out is how Sony ignores this problem… Only amateurs trying to help other amateurs, suggesting cleaning cashes, rebooting, etc. in vain. I'd never collaborate Sony for a space mission; can you imagine sending a billion dollar machine to Saturn and suddenly its front camera stops and the Sony engineers woulden't bother to solve this problem other then "taking the space capsule to the nearest Authorized Sony Tech Service"
