could be any one of a number of things.

first suggestion is to leave phone power ON, and remove battery for a few seconds, then replace. This may cure any software hiccups (or may not either).

You may be able to get a fixed price quote from a dealer to repair this, but i suspect this ageing phone may be cheaper to replace.

it may not be that severe, have you tried cleaning the lense on th camera, may have a build up of grime




It is New Zealand's role to send out its bright young men and women to help run the rest of the world. And they go, not hating the country of their birth, but loving it. From this loving base they make their mark on the world.

C'mon, Satellitesam, you can't just change posts like this! The discussion loses meaning... Now we don't know exactly what johnr was commenting about...

I think that the problem might be software related as it takes a few seconds before the error message apears.

Is there any way to "re-install" or upgrade the software?
