Problem with HTC HD7 Camera

---

Hello

Now i am going to return my HTC HD7 phone and change it for a new one.
Why?
The camera wont turn on neither on the camera button neither in the menu.

Here is the film, what it actually does.
I understand that i am not allone with this camera issue.

So far there is no solution for this problem so in this case there is only return and get a new one option.

Camera Issue Solution

---

I had the same problem with my HTC HD7 and have found a possible solution. I simply took the battery out and my SIM card, let it sit for about 1 minute. Put the SIM card back in and the battery then turned the phone back on. It fixed my camera issue.

I am not saying this will fix the issue permanently but it worked for me, I havent had any issues with the camera thus far.

Yet another reason to stop buying HTCs phones IMO.

HTC = High Tech Crap!

Wow, two imbeciles come in here and spread BS instead of answering and helping OP.

OP, I've never had that problem nor have I heard of it, so it's most definitely specific to your device so using the manufacturers warranty and getting a replacement is definitely the best solution, although nando's workaround might work...or a hard reset if it's a glitch.

AFAIK Its a windows phone issue, It has nothing to do with htc, HD7 or whatever.

It happens to zune, and marketplace too, and It only takes a simple reboot to solve it.

Still, if you believe its an hd7 issue, you shouldnt be asking it here. This is a windows-phone 7 forum, and device-related problems should be asked in their respective forums.

I have fixed this problem by myself, its an hardware problem. Nobody helped about the solution even HTC engineers. I can send the solution photos. suleymanbostanci@hotmail.com (Antalya/TURKEY)

The same problem

Nobody can help me with It? I have the ecxatly same problem...

As stated already, You might get better help with HD7 issues if you post in the HD7 specific forum, and it might help to keep the device trolls at bay...

I tried two ways of succesfully fixing this:
-3 times hard resetting
-3times soft resetting

Both did the trick for me, but for obvious reasons I now always soft reset 3 times whenever this occurs.
(Hasn't happened since NoDo tho..)
