For some reason when I open the camera app, it comes up with a black screen. I have tryed reseting the phone update using Companion, but the camera still doesn't work. Please let me know if there is a solution o this problem.

settings > apps > all > camera > clear everything

is there anything covering the lens and/or around the lens?

ah I think there may be somthing loose, because I just tapped around the camera area lightly and the camera now works (kinda strange) but I'll see how it goes if it starts acting up agin then i'll take back. (you never know maybe sothing was blocking the connection of the phone to the camera)

anyway thnks for the help, really appreciate it :smileygrin:

I recommend that you first try making a repair of the phones software using PC Companion and see if that helps: http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/pc-companion/.

If a repair doesn't solve the problem i suggest that you contact a service location or local Sony Xperia support (http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/) for further investigation and repairs.
