camera not working

Cheng86 — Mon, 23 Sep 2013 06:15:10 GMT

As soon as I took it out of the box the camera wasn't working, after the software update it started to work, now two days later it's not working again. It won't even let me choose fail on the Diagnostic test is this a software issue or do I need to replace the handset?

I had the same yesterday, I needed to reset the phone via the red switch next to the sim card.

It's a small red button, press that and them power back on and should be back to normal.
