SE w810i Problems?

[Lead_Head]

Hello all,

I've just got my new phone, a SE w810i and I wanted to try out the camera so read the manual to double check how to do it.

I hold down the camera button on the side and the screen changes to a viewfinder. The viewfinder is full of white noise, like a snowy picture on a poorly tuned TV. I hold it half way down anyway and the green light comes on and it focus' on the object you are pointing at.

I then press it all the way down and it makes the shutter sound, then returns to the main menu?!?!

I thought OK, maybe this is how SE phones work. So I go to file manager > Pictures > Camera Pictures, ensuring that I'm on both memory card and phone memory and it says 'no files'.

Is this a known problem with the phone? Or something I'm doing? Is there newer firmware out I can try before having to phone 02 up tomorrow?

Cheers,
Nick

Phone up O2, get it swapped. It's boogered.

Sent it back, forgot to put the returned goods form inside. Ooops.

Phoned up 02 and they said it shouldn't be a problem, they'll track it by imei number. Phew!
