[Q] defected photo - Sony Xperia L

My xperia L is having the latest firmware 15.0.A.2.17 , but sometime my camera still shoot a defected pictures. it look fine in a thumbnail size but when click on it, it looks disastrous. But not all photos are like that. Weird.
Anyone can help me please? :crying:

You say it looks fine in thumbnail.. So it might be Album app bug..
Try clearing data of Album app, it should work..

i notice the photos did not get defected right after the snap. But when u go to album and open the photo, you will see minor defection, and after 30 mins to 1 hour , almost whole picture was defected as what u can see from this pic. So , i think it's not the camera issue but some album bug or virus? but i just updated to 15.0.A.2.17 , should not have virus. Furthermore, if i keep the photo in internal storage, it won't get defected..only SD card photos spoiled.... T.T
Maybe you are right, an album bug? i have clear the album app data now. and testing now. Will update you on the result

still the same ****..... i am so disappointed. what should i do next?

Only SD card photos get defected?
1. Install any anti-virus application, scan the mobile and SD card too. If virus is not found, then connect the mobile to PC and scan the SD card. If still virus is not found then its okay, follow with step 2.
2. Use another SD card. If the problem solves, its the fault of your memory card, if not, follow with step 3.
3. Take the memory card out (older one), put it in memory card reader, then format it (untick quick format option, let it format fully).. Then try again, if not proceed to step 4.
4. Without putting memory card in phone, 'factory reset' your phone.. After that, re-insert your SD card (remember to format it again before inserting)..
5. If still it doesn't work, then re-install the firmware using Sony Update Service (SUS).

Perform full wipe and reflash ftf via FlashTool. Try another camera app and QuickPic

[Q] sd card removed unexpectedly. working again on rebooting

hii all. i bought sensation xe 2 wks ago. i'm facing the problem in my sensation xe of removing sd card unexpectedly.. after this notification all of my apps stop working except those which are in internal storage. so i reboot my phone and my sd card working again normally without even touching it or removing the batery.. this seems weird. but again after 3-4 hr more or less this notification again comes.. my phone is not rooted as i dont know how to root, updated on ics.. sd card also seems fine as it works on rebooting the phone..
p.s- i'm having this issue after i have upgraded my sd card from 2gb to 8gb.. before that not even the single time i have got that error.....
i have also facing a problem on every reboot that "ANdroid is upgrading" optimizing applications 1 to 28.. so my every reboot takes atleast 2 min which is very annoying.. this error cames after i upgraded from 2.3 to ics...
anybody help me.. and sorry if i am breaking any rules as i have search these problems on google but didnt get any satisfying result.
Did you tried with other sd card ,maybe you have faulty sd card

I met this same issue many times with my 16gb sd-card, and normally when I tried to download app or others, the issue would occur, reboot is the only way to fix it, seems to be the bad card, maybe I have to buy a new one...

First of all editing vold.fstab is pretty straight forward. I don't know why you went for replacing the edited vold.fstab. Its just a matter of interchanging 'sdcard' and 'externalcard' text.
For the apps not working, did you try clear cache, data, force stop and then restart ? It may solve the issue.
For Camera did you try changing data storage option ?

Sorry for lat respones,
I try to edit vold.fstab by replacing ext.sd with sd and whne phone booted external card changed to internal 8gb but internal disapired and i couldn't execs it. So i restored originial vold.fstab and after boot both mem disapired, not seen in phone explorer or pc, just clw can see ext.sd and internal so i reflashed cm10 and all is back to normal.
In cm10 i dont have option in camera menu sd/intermal or external default is internal, so i manuel copy pics to external and galery works normal-see all pics.

Did you just replace external SD card with SD card ? If that is the case, it would definitely cause issue... In fact you should have swapped Ext SD and SD in vold.fstab, not just replace the ext SD with SD. Hope I could see what's there in your vold.fstab file.

[sOLVED] XPERIA L C2104 hangs after 1-2 minutes of boot.

Hi!! I tried everything, flashed stock firmware which worked for me every time. But now the phone just hangs after a minute of boot. I can see status bar and nav buttons but its black screen in main screen. I am unable to turn on developer tools because of this so can't even root phone or anything. Please help.
I used 'root external 2 internal sd' application from playstore earlier which caused the phone to not boot at all. So I flashed stock firmware. And now this problem
The application showed 16 GB internal and 16 GB external when I tried it.
I just tried to quickly go and check storage. It says 0 in internal storage and nothing as external. Can it be because of this?? Any fix? :/

May be your partitions are not read properly or they have become corrupt
. Do you flash the full ftf along with the wipe data option turned on ?
If not then do try this.

Issue with SD

Hello, I have an Honor 8 and I recently got a notification telling me that my SD card is damaged. Following this, I have still been able to save some files and send and receive attachments via Skype and email, but not via Whatsapp (I can neither send nor receive pictures).
I'm guessing that I have to replace the SD card. Is this correct? Do you have any advice about it? If I do replace the SD, which settings should I choose for the new SD? Any particular procedures to follow?
Thanks a lot!
Once I got the sd card is damaged after reboot ,mine worked normal,i am still using the same sd card no problem for me

Hi, it's me again. Unfortunately the problem appeared again, I still can't view any photos on Whatsapp and am unable to download the files (it says the SD card is missing). At this point, I am wondering: is it really a problem of the SD card, or is there a problem with the software? What do you guys think? Because if it's a problem with the software, then changing the SD card would not solve anything, right?

That looks like a sign that your SD is near its end of life. Save your files now and insert a new SD.

sad thing is yesterday , my sd card is crashed idk y , i formatted , all my data is lost
I was having the same problem, so i read in the internet that Format the SDcard on Fat32 maybe would solve It, so i put It on my tablet PC and use the "miniTool" to delete ALL the partitions, Rebuild the MDR and at last format on Fat32. After that i change the settings on android to use internal memory as primary storage methode, using SDcard most to storage documents and pictures. So far so good

Phone doesn't detect SD cards

I've run into a rather interesting issue with my FRD-L04. My bootloader is unlocked and I'm running stock B385 with TWRP. No matter what I seem to do, the phone doesn't pick up any of the multiple SD cards I have.
EDIT: I've had a breakthrough!
The SD card appears to function ONLY IF the SIM card isn't in the tray. What on earth?
My SIM card was manually cut down from a full size one but I didn't think it would cause any problems. If I take out the SIM card and put the tray in with just an SD, it reads it completely.
I think this might have something to do with my SIM card being really old?

I was previously testing an early version of RROS on the phone but quickly made my way back to stock nougat, but somewhere in the process my SD card slot may have lost functionality. I don't think I'm able to run the marshmallow rollback process if my SD card isn't detected. TWRP doesn't let me mount any of the cards I have.
I've tried using the DLoad method for the rollback package and it failed at 5%. I don't think it detects the card at all.
Is there something I can try to do to make the SD card slot work again? I'm formatting my SD cards in the appropriate format (Fat32). I have a 16GB Lexar 300x and a 2GB MicroSD card from Samsung, neither work.

That is weird, try to format them with your computer and use exfat. See if that does anything :angel: do slow format as well if you have Windows. Not quick format.

You are also able to run the roll back packages if you make a dload folder in the root of your honor internal storage. :victory:

I just tested exFAT and it also didn't work on either card. A friend of mine just got the same phone and his SD card can even be accessed through Windows while the phone is plugged in, this never happens for me.

The cards work in every other device except this Honor 8. It may have started happening when I switched from B360 to RROS and then back again, but I don't think I've ever seen them work on the phone, even with EMUI 4.1. I get no prompts or information in the files manager, just 32GB internal storage.

It may have started happening when I switched from B360 to RROS and then back again, but I don't think I've ever seen them work on the phone, even with EMUI 4.1. I get no prompts or information in the files manager, just 32GB internal storage.

If you never have seen it work I would take it to a service center and have them look at the sd card reader :/ maybe someone with more experience than me with this matter could help you on the forms if you don't want to do that.
I've had a breakthrough!
The SD card appears to function ONLY IF the SIM card isn't in the tray. What on earth?
My SIM card was manually cut down from a full size one but I didn't think it would cause any problems. If I take out the SIM card and put the tray in with just an SD, it reads it completely.
If the update process in recovery even reaches 5% it means the phone detects the card with dload inside it. I'd recommend u to try and rollback and see.

I've partially figured it out - It's clearly something to do with my SIM card. The phone will 100% recognize any SD card as long as the SIM is out, if the SIM is inserted it immediately disconnects the SD card.
My SIM card has storage on it for contacts because it's from around 2008 or 9. Should I try getting a new sim card and see if that fixes the problem?

May be you should Service centre. It may be hardware issue now but may worsen later so better to send it now or ask for a refund if it is still less than 10-15 days of purchase

The phone is 9 months old, I doubt it's still serviceable. I'm going to try upgrading to a new SIM card and see if it makes a difference
EDIT: I just reflashed the stock recovery from B360 via fastboot, and then ran the OTA for B388. The "quick update" failed so I chose "download full package" during the install as it worked with my previous update from B360 to B385.
It installed, and when the phone rebooted, my bootloader was relocked. It relocked itself via the OTA.
This also fixed the SD card issue.
I don't even know how that works. I should lock the thread somehow I suppose!
If you have any further issues. I'd recommend that your contact Honor directly as they should be able to help you resolve your issue quite easily.
