camera button not functioning..

1paulchadwick — Wed, 19 Mar 2014 21:06:37 GMT

Hi, The camera button does not work other than very very very occasionally. I've tried every possible combination of camera settings to see if there is any particular setting which works consistantly but to no avail.

Any thoughts, please?

Do you have a protective case? perhaps the case its preventing you to press the key all the way down

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

No, I don't have any case on it. I've sent it back for an exchange & am waiting in hope

You know that if you have stamina mode enabled and the camera is not added as exception,it will not work?

No problem,you have to be a little angry with the phone.Just kidding.It has two steps,one focusing(when you press gently) and the other,shooting,when you have to press a little tougher.
