k800i camera problems

Hi,

I have a k800i r6bf003 cid53 which seems to have some sort of software fault. The camera button doesn't respond at all - unless I take a picture using the joystick first. After that the camera button works normally until the lens cover is closed. Restarting the camera puts me back at square one, one picture with joystick, then all is well. In camera auto mode, the camera continually seeks focus when button is pressed, and again, taking a picture using the joystick fixes it!

The phone developed this fault as a k800i r8ba024 cid52 - I flashed it to r6bf003 cid52 using xs++ and the fault still existed. An update using SEUS changed cid to 53.

The phone is not in warranty.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give!

Martin.
