Hi,
The camera button on the right of the phone turns on the camera anytime it is pressed, when i am in the messaging environment. This is particularly irritatin when I am writing text messages since the top of my hand accidently presses the button, and the camera is activated (and asks me to move open the lens cover). so i have to press the back button to go back to the message i was composing. is there anyway to deactive this.
Also, probably an extremely dumb question, but can you explain what you are refering to when you mention "activity buttons"?

you cam button seems to be very loosen. i have no idea on how to deactivate this.
activity button: this pops up a menu with bookmarks, shortcuts and the running application/game/radio/media player, rss feeds, etc.

Welcome Andre,
When writing a text the camera button is deactivated, and the camera app shouldn't start. Try A SEUS up date, use this link to download SEUS.

I hope this fixes your bug,

Hi there,
Thanks for the help so far. I ran the update, and the camera can still be activated wheni am in the messaging environment!
Any other ideas?

well,the camera button on my k800 starts the camera app when it is pressed only under main menus,not else where including "writing a new message"...
it shouldn't happen,which firmware have you updated your phone to?

HI,
I followed the link above, and then followed the instructions.
When I got to the update page, it said "Phone is already updated" so I clicked on "continue anyway".
I assume its the latest?
Posted by decay_zeit
the latest is R1KG001,you may check it here : Menu->Settings->UpdateService->SoftwareVersion...
is your phone branded or so?
Posted by andreva
My phone is Vodafone branded.
Strange thing is I don't have "update version" in my list in settings.
Is there anywhere I can see which version i have?

my k810 does this in the main menu, in the organizer sub-menu, in the messaging sub-menu but not when writing a message itself...if you want to see your FW version follow these steps....
form standby press
>
*
<
<
*
<
* (where < and > represent left and right on the joystick respectively)
then go to service info...software info... and your FW no. should be the top one
Posted by andreva
Nice one.
At the top of software info, it says "R1ED001".
right at the bottom, it says
"Update service SW
UA version:
CRH1069179 R3B021
2006-12-18 15:59"
Does this mean i have the wrong update?
Posted by decay_zeit
your firmware is not the latest,strange SEUS says it is up to date
R1ED001 goes back to 05/10/2006

Ok great- Is there a way to manually update it, since I have tried through the link at the top of this thread, and it said it was up to date.
Posted by A L 3 X
i think the only way to do that would be to debrand the phone using a service like davinciteam.com or wotanserver.com

or www.wotanserver.com
