Hello. I cannot watch pictures horizontally on my K850i. Just the vertical position shows them correct. I dont know, but when I turn the phone horizontal to view pictures they start rendering correct but after 20% they just show nothing but scrambled images. I already reformat and reflashed the phone about 5 times, trying different firmwares but nothing fix the problem. I bought this phone from ebay and the guy said the phone was working properly . Anyone has a clue on this ?

I have pictures of the problem below:

Yes Boysie99. But I already tested , and the same problem occurs when stored in the phones memory. Another problem checked is that I cannot transfer pictures to my computer. I can see the filenames, but I cannot open nor transfer. It says: transfer failed.

Accelerometer test result: when I lay the phone over a table it shows: X: 36 ( sometimes it flips to 54 ) Y: 36 ( sometimes 18 ) and Z: 1044 ( sometimes 1062 )

does it mean anything ?

I forgot to say, I tested the camera too and its working clearly.

I dont know if the readings a similar on different phones but ive just tested a new w910 and the readings are very different. I tested with the phone on its side with the screen on the left.

X 900 ish Y 75 ish z 150 ish

Just to add more information on this problem.. I recorded a video of 2 minutes and I can watch both horizontal and vertical and it works great.. so, the problem is just when viewing pictures...

Is there any way to do a hardware reset on the k850i ? maybe that will help.

There is a master reset but i guessed u tried that already. Besides, you have reflashed it a number of times and if that didn't fix it, a master reset isnt going to either.

Did u flash main and FS or just main?

Try reformating the memory stick, even if you are saving your pics on the phone memory.
