W580 camera faulty

[tekman]

I'm probably not in the right section for this one but please don't flame me for this. I purchased a W580i for my girlfriend which was locked to the orange network so decided to get it unlocked which I duly did so I could then send the phone across to where she lives in Cape Town. Needed it to work on Telkom network. Everything worked well but then she noticed the camera was playing up occasionally but the problem happens more frequently now. The screen goes green and purple. Is it possible the unlocking procedure has messed up the camera driver somehow and if so would it just be a case of reinstalling the original camera driver or is it likely to be another soft or hardware issue.
Can anyone advise please

Regards

Tek

i unlock them evey day and unlocking hasnt done that it probly has a falty ribbon or needs to be reflashed but be carful when reflashing as if it was patched unlocked the it will need to be unlocked but if it has a cid 52 its all free to do any way just read the tuts on here will help u great

Thanks for that but I don't and didn't flash the phone i left that to someone else. The phone was updated via the update service online which annoyingly removed the any network function so I had to have the phone re flashed. The camera was playing up before it was updated online and I'm sorry but like i said I don't do mobile unlocks.
Guess I'll have to do some more reading into the problem;)

and if your phone was updated via the online service your phone now mite be CID 53 wich means that you cant flash it or add stuff with XS++ or setool u will need FAR+jdflasher plugin

Nope just unlocked at shop then re unlocked down at the market. Unfortunately because I'm not in South Africa I can't get hold of the handset to fiddle. I'm happy to dismantle phone physically but not so sure about the software side of things
