K770i broken camera

[jchong]

I have a K770i and it has been working fine until today when the camera says "Another application is running. Close it, then start the camera." I haven't played with any of the software so it must be a hardware issue. It appears both cameras do not work as I tried video calling and the front camera won't work either. I've searched through the forum but was just wanting to get a bit more advice.

Can anyone give me some pointers on what to do to fix it? thanks

I'll pull it apart first and check the camera connection..... if not then i suppose i'll try a reflash eeeeek

[jchong]

can anyone help me with where to check the connection with the camera?

[jchong]

well i opened it up and pulled the main camera out and all the connections looked fine and there was no corrosion or anything so i have no idea what to try next. Seeing it is both cameras that aren't working, it must either be a software issue or something on the circuitry board??? help someone please!

hi samjim, thanks for your reply. I reflashed the firmware with no luck, still the same message so it must be hardware. Can you explain what you mean by the camera switch? thanks
