<title><![CDATA[Sony Xperia Z5: Cameras and the Flash Don't Work]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>I've been facing this issue for months now, Whenever I tap camera app or any other third party camera app like snapchat, candycamera or camera in the whatsapp or facebook or instagram, the system hangs for 5-10 seconds and the respective app crashes and there's no cameras and no flash. When I ran the system diagnostics using *#*#7378423#*#* the rear camera diagnostic also gave the same black screen and gave a message that the camera not connected whereas the flash test said that the flash should be on whereas it wasn't and finally the front camera diagnostic crashed the system diagnostic tool completely. Now any advises on which camera should I get replaced?</p>

<title><![CDATA[Sony Xperia Z5: Is this phone worth repairing?]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Hi</p>

<p>I have a Sony Xperia Z5 Premium that died on me a few months ago. I was planning on keeping the phone and going on a sim only when my contract renews in June. Reason being, phones haven't progressed enough past this stage for me to warrant an upgrade.</p>

<p>However, the phone decided to turn itself off and upon turning it back on it stayed on for 10, 20, 30 seconds or so and then turned itself off again. This continuously happened. I managed to do a factory reset in the time it stayed on (plugged in but this didn't always help). The factory reset made no difference.</p>

<p>My theory is one of two possible causes;</p>

<p>1) It's shutting down due to overheating. It gets warm where the processor is, nothing new for this phone and not as hot as it gets when running something processor heavy. possibly just start up warmth.</p>

<p>2) The battery is knackered. It's been replaced once before but I can't remember why I had to do this.</p>

<p>Also, the rubbery compound found on the copper pipes underneath the processor is just that, rubbery. Should this be more like a paste?</p>

<p>Really don't fancy wasting money on parts if it won't fix my phone.</p>

<p>Any help, much appreciated.</p>

<p>Thanks,</p>

<p>Dean</p>

<p>I am not a novice and I have fixed Sony devices before and i am just baffled as to what it could be. I have used company before for previous screens but not ruling out faulty screens :/</p>

<p>- Have you guys experienced anything similar?</p>

<p>- And any solution if so..</p>
