I just upgraded to DCD 3.2.3 and switched the camera options during the installation from Camera 4.05.30525.00 to Camera 5.07.30568.0. I noticed when everything was done that my camera does not have a flash option any longer.

I know it wasn't the best feature on the phone, but it was nice to have / use on occassion. Is it the DCD that removed the flash or the selection of the new camera? Is there a way to get that back or is this the price of upgrading?

Thanks.

that is the price of "upgrading" unfortunately.....5.07.30568 is actually a vogue/touch camera and dcd seems to like the vogues look and feel......but higher #'s don't always mean better....the 4.05.30525 is superior in that it has better auto focus, takes cleaner pics and well, it works.....i hope he puts it back in the stock build.....as the post above me said though, you can install 4.05.30525 from the kitchen.

So the natural question is... if I want to go back to Camera 4, do I only need to re-run the BUILDNB.bat and then select the correct Camera? And I would naturally assume this rebuilds the OS, so I'm going to lose all my data, right?

I think that's probably a small enough price to pay, but I wanted to make sure before I go making changes again.
