I believe that this might not be a new problem at all; worst lately, I don't know, maybe... But I remember fighting this problem forever [
like back then]and this got me re-install builds and re-flash sbf numerous times... I wish that I could find an olded build where the issue was less frequent, but I have yet to find it...
End the end, this is in fact one of the main reason that will get me to buy a new phone. [I say buy because nothing can repalce the Defy's thoughness on MTB rides
]. But a working camera [without hickups] is a not a luxury and it's just too bad that it is the Defy's weakest link..
Off-Topic:
Nokia has recently displayed a smartphone (still on symbian) prototype with a 31Mp camera...
The
rumoured next Samsung Galaxy S3 [see pics - credits to onrefaitlemac] is also quite attractive display-wise; ceramic back cover; and finally!, they could get rid of that useless fruit-like unique home button... It might very well become my next bank breaker in a few months ...especially if they'd come any close to those screenshots...
