What's the longest K750/W800 video you've recorded with your phone? Mine's about 5 minutes long; since I can't record video past 6-7 minutes.

I'm having a problem with my W800. The camera application crashes and exits prematurely when the video being recorded is about 3 to 8 minutes (I use zoom when recording). I still have about 78MB of free memory (and that can hold more than an hour of captured video). The worst part is that everything that's been recorded so far doesn't get saved when the application exits for no apparent reason at all.

Does this problem occur to other K750/W800 users? I'm currently using the R1L002 firmware. I don't have any plans to update yet to the latest firmware due to the MS file corruption bug.

Please respond if this problem happened to you, so I can pinpoint if this is only a firmware bug or a possible defect of my unit.

Thanks.

Yes... it happens. Not to me since I never tried recording that much time, but I read in some other post that it happened; so don't worry, it's not your unit.

Well, maybe you're referring to my post a week ago.

Then I thought I had the problem fixed by a couple of restarts, but I tried again last night and the app crashed.

So I felt I need to try posting this again.
