Unfortunatly! camera stopped working

Hi, ive had this xperia for just over 2 years now and never had a problem with it wot so ever been dropped from height many times and even landed screen down a few times an never broke, cracked or anything (been very lucky). i decided to root the phone about a year an a half ago as i wanted to install a flash player and a few other bits and bobs, which i did succsefully without connecting to as computer.  after a year it got quite annoying having the "new update available" icon in the status bar so i decided it was time to try and un root and bring the phone up to date as having it rooted never really made much difference anyway. ended up bricking the phone cause im a complete noob lol, anyway, i connecgted the phone to the sony software on the pc and went about performing a software fix. worked a treat came on like new very fast phone and up to date, although now the camera wont even boot up and my gps takes forever to connect, and when it does it drops straight away.

ive tried all the usual stuff like clearing the cache an rebooting the phone, and even a few sony camera fix apk's none of which even attemtyed to fix the issue, all i get is camera not available, the a system message saying camrea stopped working. is there anyone out there with a genuine knowledge of this problem and did they fix it succesfully, anty help would be great as im at a loose end.....theres loads of camera fixes out there but i havent come accross anyone with the exact problem as mine so im at a loose end!!!

thanks in advance Winking_Face
