my mistake. it should be 4.3

No problem, was just wondering. Changed it for you.

But what about your problem?
Maybe this is what you experience as well

Thanks. Yes, I have the same symptons here.

Same problem for me. Xperia X 4.3 - opening camera gives loader for a few seconds then dies

How many threads with this topic do we have here? @vige
Would it not make sense to clean up / administer this forum a bit more than TJC?

@ryananglem
Sorry but there are at least 4 or 5 threads dangling about this thing.
Please take a look here for the solution, you will need developer terminal and root rights:

or direct link to solution

Oh, was already linked above…

Ok sorry. Tried that “solution” and it didn’t work. Also, this was the only thread that appeared when I searched, but agree would be nice to have a single thread. However there is a lot of shouting in that linked thread and even though it was linked I didn’t find a working solution there
