C7 camera: 'Unexpected error occured. Restart phone'

I assume that this error occurs on my C7 because Wellness Diary Beta is running on the background. I came up with this thought for when i terminate Wellness Diary, camera works normally without errors! So, bear that in mind.

Re: C7 camera: 'Unexpected error occured. Restart phone'

As I said my C7 has noumerous problems (out of the box from 1st day !!!) one of them is camera related . In camera preview all is working well but when I take a shot some areas of the picture are saved as blank . this is not happening to all photos . its about 1/4 of photoes shoot and its too annoying . In my case phone restarts at almost any point (even when browsing settings) so it restarted some times while in camera :smileymad:

You had better take the phone where you bought it from and ask for a replacement.

Re: C7 camera: 'Unexpected error occured. Restart phone'

I already did that ! there is no other way but to hard reset in order to find if its a program causing trouble or your hardware malfuntioning

and click on 'i have this bug too', so that the WD development team has a reason to look into that. Currently there are only 2 people reporting the bug.

First of all, did you update to Symbian Anna (PR2.0)?

Did you try reformating your phone? Reformat - Dial *#7370# and enter lock code. This will delete all your data except from your memory card.

Have you tried the following steps:

 

  1. Restore factory settings --> Go to Settings > Ctrl. panel > Settings > General > Factory settings
  2. Update or re-install software --> See the steps here
  3. Visit Nokia Care if the issue still persists

Hope this helps. 

If this has helped you, a click of appreciation on the Star or "Accept as Solution" button would be considered as "Thank You".

Re: C7 camera: 'Unexpected error occured. Restart phone'

I didn't have the Wellness Diary installed, but I changed the Video Camera Memory In Use setting from Mass Memory to SD card and then it worked!
