@miss_uk - The Sale of Goods Act is for purchases made within 28 days, but you have a 1 year warranty with Siemens who should fix/replace it for you for free. -Eva

Same problem here, both for the camera and the ring ring.... hopefully it should be gone when I go for an upgrade....

Ive had the camera lock up on me once with a white screen, a restart of the phone solved it.

Ive also had the lack of ringing when making a call also, ive only had it in the last month or so (before i got my HBH-60 headset) but it has happened about 5 or 6 times in total

Phone software version R1D

I quite regularly get the camera produce the white screen with SE logo.

I have to power cycle and everything is ok again. Do people who experience this switch their phones off at night ?

My phone is never turned off, and I wonder if over time the camera software gets messed up.

(I now use Handy Day to close the Cam app after use - this seems to help a bit)

Same here, I am also experiencing both problems. The problem with the camera appeared when I upgraded phone to R2D. Perhaps R2F fixes these problems, but I will wait for the next version. Do somebody know when will it come out?

I also had the same problem when calling people, its is silent when there should be a ringing tone...and then suddenly you hear the other person speaking.

A reboot of the phone fixes my problem but the problem comes back.

and ideas of a fix?

Sounds like a network thing to me. The tones comes from the network and not the phone. So if you get silent and then suddenly you hear the one you call, pick up. Then it's not your phone!

I get the same problem too, but i know for a fact on my side its down to bluetooth headset, or especially after connecting or being in the presence of a computer with a bluetooth switched on, and sporting the bluetooth headset profile. As was said earlier, it is searching for the bluetooth headset to transfer the call (i have the prefered device set to headset) the best solution i think is to turn off the bluetooth (set it to auto) and see if that makes a difference.

Another thing you also wish to look at is if you have oggplay or the Audio player loaded, it may be interfering with it.

Basically the phone is trying to centend with different source of input/output, and if the other person picks up before the contention is successfull it simply transfered immeadiaately to the phone. But yeah its kinda scarey.
