This is all I can see in the thread:

Go to the service menu (>*<
The light will even be turned some timeafter you turn off your phone (about a minute)



But then I quote that post & it becomes this:

Whats going on
At least now I know why I didn't understand it before

Edit: and now even in my post I can't see it all. Both the above quotes appear the same but when I go to edit the second one is still all there!

Its not just the symbols that are missing though, there's also a portion of text

It was just the signs, they tell the browser to show something it cant, so therefore is shows nothing.. (Shortly told..)

It shuld be readable now..!

Cheers, good find, although, I don't have much use for it, cos if I need a light, I just go into cam mode and turn it on.

Still, well done.

@ Rva@
I see what you're sayin but surely if the browser was gettin confused then it would show properly when I quote or edit the post. Its only in the actual thread that it doesn't display properly

Good find, but I think it's just too much key strokes to turn it on. It's not too practical IMO. I'll just stick with my shortcut to camera then press 5. Nevertheless, good catch!

using camera for turning the light on consumes more battery cuz the camera itself uses battery for displaying the scene on the screen. so if you want to use the light for a long time it's logical to use the mentioned trick. it's really easy, isn't it?

@aulason, you're right about the battery issue. I'm sure this trick will one day come in handy.

@stef, when you start the service test, the light will be turned on for a while and then starts to flash. you should press the back button before the flash starts. in the other words, when the test starts, press the back button instantly.
