Default [Q] Camera flicker issues? (On Das BAMF 1.4)

Hey folks,

Anyone else experiencing camera flicker issues? The HTC camera app and Google Goggles seem to show this behavior for me - what happens is that the camera turns on, shows a picture for a split second, then turns off the camera. While this happens, the UI is unresponsive, except for the bottom four capacitive buttons (this makes it nearly impossible to take *any* pictures.)

This happens for me on Das BAMF 1.4, with the kernel that comes with Das BAMF.

EDIT: This might be related to another issue I'm having - GPS icon flickering on and off all the time in the status bar (this happens in the browser when I'm on the Google home page.)

I had the same issue today went to ATT and of course they said I had to call customer service warranty place which was closed gotta love it - so i finally was googling around here and figured out that if i backed up all my data and did a hard reset it took care of the camera flickering issue - thank goodness
Hard reset
go to Settings
then to SD & Phone Storage
then to Factory reset
and it should work good luck.
