Hi,

When I press the Camera button on my XDAIIs it tries to launch Media Player instead of the camera.

If I open the Camera application from within the programs folder I get the following error...
Failed to initialize camera.
Please reset the hardware.

Does anyone have a fix for this?

Many thanks

Ive been getting this too. It has also coincided with the battery monitor showing battery life being drained at a very fast rate.
It first happend when I had about 18% on main battery, my girlfriend fell and snapped her clavical requiring me to call an ambulance. Pulled the XDA2i from my pocket powering it up I pressed the camera button. The screen went all funny and it killed itself (full reboot from scratch required). Got another person to call the ambulance.

Since then it crashed with the error you report, and the battery meter went screwy. SO then I re booted in corporate mode. Fine for a while but then the camera screwed up again. SO another full re boot.
Getting fed up I did think about returning it as faulty. Not had time so this time I copied the shortcut from the windows folder in to the start menu allowing me to re asign the button on the side.
I am currently watching it to see if the battery meter is playing up too. Bit of a problem as I have just started using TT5 incar so it goes on and off charge a lot along with a bluetooth headset bought on a few days ago.


Ill watch this and hope for more input

OK lastnight the XDA2i went flat and wouldn't powerup. I left it around 11pm with 65% on the main battery 100% on the back up. I had to put it on charge for 5mins at 7am this morning before it would power up!!! It then read 12% on the main battery, backup at 100%

The unit is standard, out of the box standard. Running it in corporate mode, only program loaded is TT5. Proccessor set to turbo.

Normaly I would get a couple of days before charge (minimal usage)

Fitted with an www.integralmemory.com 1gb sd high speed card.

In the time it took me to write this the main battery dropped by 2%
