Hello there.

Over the past month I've had a couple of problems with the camera on my 850i.

About a month ago whenever I started the camera I was greeted with the message, "Another application is running. Close it, and then start the camera."

Now this was complete rubbish as the camera previously worked with other applications running. Thankfully, that problem mysteriously disappeared.

However, now when I start the camera it runs but no picture appears, just the icons around the screen.

I presume it's a problem with the lens. Suggestions?

Thanks.

about (Blank Camera Screen)
i have the solution! cause i faced same Problem before.

well, the solution is:

1. Turn off the w850i for at least 7 hours! not less than 7 hours!
2. Turn it back on. and when it gets the network wait like 10 seconds.
3. hit the Silver button (the camera shortcut button). and you will see it is Working!!!

Hope that helps!
this happened to me 2 Times by the way! and worked again!!
