Hi all, this is my first time here, so sorry if this has been asked/answered. I've had the K750 for ~4 months now and LOVE it, 7 days ago though, the camera just stopped taking pics. Occ it will take one, but it seems like the focus wont work or if it does, after I press it halfway, when I press it all the way down nothing happens. Sometime, it wont even focus. The rest of the phone works fine. ive taken 1000pics before this happend.. I even updated the phone to see if that helped...no dice. ANy help would be appreciated, thx

welcome,

The camera button on my k750 has stopped working too. I can press it half-way down and it focusses, but when i press the button fully it doesn't take a picture and the the camera goes back to auto-focussing.

Unfortunately i haven't found a way to solve this malfunction, but since my joystick has decided to work parttime i think i will take the phone back to the shop, see if they know what to do (i hope this is covered by the warrenty).

Ive noticed this problem since last week with my K750 great phone feature wise however,the the quality of the materials and workmanship of the phone leaves much to be desired.
I have tom83's problems at present.

i guess these are parts of the bad batch...

have you guys dropped the phone by accident or sumthin lyk it? few bumps?

my phone had one... and it was terrible... it was on tha dashboard of my boss' car.. then she made a wild spin while backing up. then it threw my phone way over the otherside, impacted on side door and onto the floor.

luckily it was still as good as new..
so i pressume that these sets of phones are something like the bad batch.

try SE shops for details.

Probably the ribbon cable of the camera to the "motherboard" of the phone got disconnected... it happens quite regularly.

You have to take it back for SE to fix them.
