After rooting my phone the camera will not work. When I press the button I get a little light around the button. Does anyone else have this issue or know a fix???
Works for me and I have root access. Tried rebooting your phone?
EDIT: Are you sure it's not taking pictures and that you just accidentally turned off the clicking sound? Sorry don't mean to sound sarcastic but I did this too. Then I noticed tons of pictures in my flash card.

Guys i am facing a problem..i already searched the whole xda but i didnt find anything..my problem is that my htc cant vibrate anymore...even the htc sence and even when im typing to send a message...at the settings is already set to vibrate all the mods..but nothing works!!any solution please?
did you try a softreset or hardreset? also what rom are you using?
i did soft reset many times...i use stock rom 1,66....!
anyone please??
Do a hard reset. Yes, it'll wipe out all the data and apps but its worth a try. If your phone still don't vibrate, I guess you have a problem with the motor or something.
yeah thats it...
a problem can be caused by a installed program or something else...
after a hardreset, it has to work..if not, you've got a hardware defect.

Check on the back of the phone if your led flash is "pressed in". That could cause the vibrate to stop working.

Same problem here. Flash cover was pushed and stopping the vibration mechanism. openning the back cover and pushing the flash cover so that it flushes with the cover solved the problem. Openning the cover will void your warranty though.

Amazing!!! this worked for me too.
After all this time looking for a software fix...
Good ol' mechanical remedies if an army of vibrating HD2 take over the world, now we know how to stop em
son of a ....
I had the same problem, and found my LED flash to be pushed in after reading this thread.
I opened up the case to correct it. But after putting it back together not only does vibrate not work, but the volume keys, speakers (both earpiece and speakerphone), flash, notification led, and camera all don't work.
I obviously screwed something up, but I have no clue what it could have been. I was very careful. One thing I'll note is that when I pulled the case apart, the volume rocker went flying. When putting the phone back together I got it back into place so that I THOUGHT it should work (it was seated properly and felt "clicky" for up/down movements.
But no luck, all that I listed above is non functional, and what I'm left with is a glorified 3.5 in tablet
Any ideas??
My phone has a problem in QIK for TMOB. It does not work with the back camera only works with front facing camera. But I downloaded regular Qik app from market and it does work perfectly. Does anyone else has this problem?
Also you might be wondering if regular qik works, what is the problem? The problem is when somebody calls me I am not able to flip my camera (I guess the tmob app opens up.) Then I have to call them back using regular qik and everything works fine.
By the way my phone is not rooted and nothing has been moded.

Well when most of these problems occur their is three routes you can usually take:
1) Uninstall the update that happened when you first opened the T-mobile Qik and than re-update it.
2)Just freeze/uninstall the T-mobile app from your phone and just use market one.
3)Yell at the heavens and curse T-mobile for condemning the G2x to a life burdened with bloatware.

I like your 3rd option....
On a serious note, I tried the first solution you gave, but it did not work for me somehow. And I guess the second option needs rooting, which I am still not comfortable with. I came from HD2. I did lots of testing there but I didn't care about that phone anymore. But I love this phone which I don wanna mess up.
Anyways, thanks for the suggestions.

Well on a serious note rooting for this phone is cake and with oneclickroot you can unroot the phone too if your heart desires. Plus when you root you can change alot of simple settings to extend battery life and make the phone run better!

No problem someone had to push me my first time rooting too. And after you root look at the link in my sig for some tips on how to get more battery life.
When I opened Qik it said there was an update and directed me to the Market. With Record and Share open, when you hit menu, there's a button to switch the camera between front and back.
ok so i have a Cappy running MIUI 1.12.16 version 2.3.7 and my power button started not working randomly, now i cant get into my phone :/ help! I do belive this is a hardware issue. It started in thr last MIUI version then i thought upgrading would have solved it but no

Try going into your camera and taking a picture. Don't ask me why, but for some reason this works. And it worked for me.
I'm in the same boat. Any suggestions?
I am on 1.12.30 and I now have the same issue.
Sent from my I897 using xda premium
I also had this issue I don't have a solution but if you do manage to get the screen up by some means I would suggest remapping the power button to one of the volume keys at least temporarily if you're rooted. You can either do it manually with root explorer or this app- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=850464 This has worked fine for me on every rom up until ICS.

haha that's exactly what I said when I first read it. but I wasn't joking - it actually works haha. glad it helped!
Same thing happened to me after I moved to Miui 1.12.23. Ive done lots of searching and everyone just says its a broken button. I find it awfully coincidental. I have since moved to cm7 nightly 181 (i think). And the problem carried over. Not sure a fix. CM has a feature to have the vol buttons wake the screen which has been great. I am still able to use the power button in recovery so I dont know what the deal is or the fix....
the camera thing worked but only temp.
Ive done my research, im no noob to this lol. I just havent found anything simular to the problems I am having.
So first off the phone isnt mine, its my friends, but im not new to Android and have done my fair share of roots. Ive never had any of these issues.
He bought the phone off of craigslist and it was suppose to be already rooted. So that was the first thing I checked, and it was defiantly S-ON.... So I asked what his problem was, and he said the camera didnt work. If you enter the camera app, or camcorder is would just flash right back to the haome screen. But yet if you go into Qik and video chat the front cam would work just fine.
So I did several factory restores of all ways possible and nothing fixed it. So I got permission to root so I could flash a ROM and see if that fixes the issue.
I rooted via Revolutionary of course. I followed all the step in the guide posted here in the section. After some trouble I finally got it fully rooted. But I was having some problems in recovery. One of them was when using the volume rocker to move up or down it would spazz out and I got to fight with the damn thing to get it to go where I want it to. But it didnt stop there!! Then while having that issue, I had another one where it would keep switching from say the back button was enabled or disabled. So that made it very difficult.
So then I had one ROM downloaded and I finally got it to where I could flash it and while it was flashing it would come back as an error saying something about the memory card! WTF! So after all of this and 3 hours of working on it I gave up for the night. So as I let the phone reboot into the stock ROM it still had the camera issue. AND also now when using the volume rocker for the volume, if you use up, the volume goes down. But if you press down the volume goes up!! Im about to just give up! Tomorrow ill try a new ROM and see how that goes.
So I guess im here asking if anyone has any ideas to any of these issues and what I could possibly do to fix any of these???
wonder if it was a bootleg phone. take the battery out and look over the stickers and what not, research them.

This is a feature with the recovery. If you're at the end of the options and you go back and forth.. it'll disable it. I don't like/use the feature myself!
The volume sort of sounds like hardware..! You can also navigate through recovery using the home and menu button too. Home is UP, menu = down. Search = select. Use that! Hopefully this helps a bit, as for the issue with flashing... I've no idea, I got to see that

Yeah my buddy has an evo 3d. I rooted it and did all the stuff for him. Pretty much the same thing. I find it strange that you're having trouble
Anyone know waht is causing the volume level to go WAY down after I place, or receive a phone call. I love the phone very much but this is driving me crazy! I'm on T-Mobile which is working fine. I have to use the Digits app at home to make calls. But no mater if I use Digits or not, if I make or receive a call the loudness of anything on the phone basically goes away. System sounds, YouTube, Iheart radio.... Anything that uses the speakers looses all volume. I have to reboot to get it back. Pretty annoying
I am facing the same problem. It just started to happen this week.
Clearly it's boring! if your device is rooted with magisk try viper4android it's magic, believe me !
Im having a similar problem and started to notice it few days ago, mainly because I am 85% of the time using the phone on vibration only.
I don't know exactly what OP means with "goes away", if this means that the volume is low (ringing or playing music) but the controls are still to the top, then yes I'm facing it too, but, what is really strange is that for me, just the top speaker have sound, while the bottom speaker is really low.
I managed to figure out that if I cover the top speaker with my finger without "pressure" or trying to squash it, the bottom speaker start "working" again. Im lost with this situation.
Sounds like a messed up mixer math or possibly audio mod that is messing it up

Could be a botched firmware. Be my guess. Iv flashed many roms and official firmware and never had this issue. Have you tried flash tool or the new flasher?

No, I never flash this phone before, just the automatic updates. All is stock.
Ahhh then one of the updates got messed. Sony must of messed something up. Flashed an older, firmware, different region firmware or hope for a patch from aony
No one else with this problem?
this just happened to me but after listening to spotify any way to fix this?
