Hi,
Try to reset your phone and try again. It might work.
Otherwise, copy the pictures and try to open it on your computer.

Help my camera isn't starting anymore!

I'd tryied to hold camera button and from programs menu but both wont work. What can I do? Please can someone help me out?
First off try a soft reset, poke the stylus in the reset hole for a second or two, you won't loose any information or applications trying this, switch the unit back on and try again from the hardware button and/ or the Start/ Programs/ Camera icon
If the above didn't fix it try a hard reset, this will wipe the device back to the same configuration it was when you got it - you WILL LOOSE data doing this - Mike
Thanks for the rep. but,
I did hard reset and it still wont start. AND NOW the camera icon isn't even in the program folder anymore?! help!
Please, anybody?

This is NOT possible if you hardreset. Hardreset again and try. If it still doesnt work, your unit is most probably defective and you'll have to exchange/send in for repair it.
Just to be sure: You use the erase memory tool in the control panel and had to enter "1234" and then click yes, right?
Yes, I used the erase memory tool
I have itself problem, the reset (soft) don't resolve. Sometimes the camera starting, but frequently NO.
Sorry for my english.

I'm Trying yet to solve
Looking at the camera launching process, I've found a link like:
_camera.lnk
that contains:
21#"\Windows\Camera.exe" ?CameraRc_Grey.dll,-1106
any idea if that is normal content, looks curious for a link especially the interrogation point mark?
What about the -1106 figure ?
Is it possible that this link being corrupted ?
If yes how to modifiy it, seems a ROM file
Any help welcomed
same problem here,
sometimes cam will work but it to often will not. :/
sure ift the cam even dont in factory default config (hard reset) it is broken.
I got longest working duration in factory default, approx one to two weeks.
using third party binaries the failure appears randomly.
Im pretty sure this is a software issue, else a soft rest wont fix it, eh ?!
workaround:
one but very poor solution is, once the cam starts, _never_ quit it, just minimize.
yep, I know ... but the only way I found atm.
Same problem
I have got no news about cam.
I called htc support, they told me to install a fix for camera that I found in htc e-club.
But that fix is not for our problems, is for camera quality.
I installed it but the problem still remain.
Sometimes it goes, sometimes no...
Edit/Delete Message
same problem here. thank you for HTC reply
A solution is to take the pda off without the battery for some minutes...
After that the cam works...
But for also some time... then It goes down again...
I've been having the same problems with the camera.
"Camera" doesn't appear in Programs but "Camera album" does.
When i use file explorer to go to the .exe file and i tap it, nothing happens.
EDIT: i've just used file explorer to go to the windows directory en what do I see: now i have two camera executables (but not one of them reacts)
In file explorer i see this:
Camera 11/12/07 733K
camera.exe.0409.mui 11/12/07 28,9K
camera 11/12/07 35,2K (with Opera icon, i think it's the help file)
camera 18/06/07 35B
CameraRc_Grey.dll 11/12/07 398K
I've never seen the last two files
Hello
i´ve got this Problem nearly three weeks. I´ve installed a new rom and Nadavi camera. Nothing turn the Camera Problem. Sometimes it works sometimes not. I´ve got the idea that the Software that is installed on the device cause the Problem. When i want to send a mms from the camera the camera strikes after that. When i used Mobile Navigator 5.0 the Camera strike again.
I don´t have an exactly answer for the Problem but i´m pissed of!!!! HTC can´t help already
Greetigs Aragorn
P.S. hope you understand my bad english
I sent the pda to htc support...
I have to call them on 15th june.
When I'll have news I will tell you
Bye

[Q][HELP] Camera Roll Pictures Disappeared

I had the same question in the HD7 thread. No ones that active so I shall post it here, hopefully someone can help me.
The pictures from my Camera Roll and Saved Pictures disappeared a few days ago. The Camera Roll folder was blank and once I took a new picture it appeared there.
However I then connected my phone to zune and I was able to see all the camera roll pictures in Zune Camera Roll album and the files say that its sync with the phone, but I CANT see it.
Then I went to DATE on my phone and I can see all the pictures there. The Camera Roll and the Saved Pics....any idea why it is not being showed in the respective albums and how i fix it ?
Same problem w/my Lumia 900

I have the same problem with my Lumia 900 running WP7.8. When connected to Zune, the program shows me that I have photos on my phone in the camera roll, but the camera roll on the phone shows only a few of my photos. The date section shows all of my photos. I suspect it has something to do w/syncing to Zune, but I don't know what it is causing this.
Have you figured out a solution to our problem?
Transfer pics to your PC, then delete them from the phone, then re-upload them to the phone using Zune?

The photos are getting saved to my PC via Zune each time I plug in and to Skydrive as soon as I take a photo, so I'm not too concerned that I will lose any pictures. What I want to know is why they disappear from the camera roll, but are viewable when I tap "date" from the picture hub.
The problem started a few weeks ago so I uninstalled the last few apps that I downloaded as a troubleshooting measure. I will sync w/Zune this evening and report back.
How many pictures do you estimate you have? Have you turned off your phone by removing the battery frequently? Has the phone ran out of battery frequently?
My phone recently had a problem with the loss of some settings, like groups in the People Hub, and some missing tiles. And this happened shortly after I dropped my phone, the battery got out and I were using it with low battery most of the time (I plugged it to my PC to keep it alive, and then to the car charger and then go about my life with the little heart icon on the battery icon and close to no battery).
The Lumia 900 does not have a removable battery. I have already tried rebooting the phone.

Did you ever see a little message saying something like "We're sorry, we had some troubles and some data could've been lost. Don't worry, we tried to save as much as we could. We're sorry for the inconvenience"?

I have not seen that error message. After I'm done syncing w/Zune and I unplug my phone, the photos from my camera roll do not appear. If click "date", they are there.

Corrupt Recorded Videos

When playing back a recorded video on the One X, I sometimes find the video file to be corrupt and filled with artifacts (see attached picture).
There are no visible abnormalities while recording the video, you're made aware that what you just recorded is damaged once you see the thumbnail or try to play it.
I searched around the internet and didn't seem to find others who shared this problem.
Any suggestions on how to prevent this or what the cause is?
PS. Corrupt videos were all recorded in 1080 resolution
Are u on a nightly aosp/aokp or jb rom?

The phone is running on the stock OS.
It might be worth noting that there is plenty of storage space available in the phone.
First thing I would try is booting up the phone into safemode, and try again. That will tell us if it is a 3rd party app possibly causing it.
Next, do a factory reset to bring it back to original and test again(just good measure)
Next, I would download and install the correct ruu for the device and run it.
If that didn't work I would return the phone to carrier or manufacturer via a overhand right thru the closest window for replacement or repair:beer:

Is it always happen? What is your rom code?

So phone screen cracked... anyway to backup internal SD?

My phone screen cracked a couple weeks ago, it wasn't that bad that I couldn't stand it but it was a little bothersome. Anyways I thought I would just put up with it for a while, but I ended up placing a claim for a replacement from Asurion a few days ago. Well I dropped my phone again the other day while I was walking home using the LED flash, and I thought everything was fine til I got home and I noticed the screen didn't turn on anymore. It is unresponsive as well so can't answer calls either. I tried plugging the device into my computer and it listed the device but I couldn't access the actual files. I tried opening Odin up just to see if I could even write to the phone, and ended up flashing a root66 file I had from a while back. I don't believe it wipes the the internal SD so I was wondering if it was possible to retrieve the data off the phone still? I have most of my stuff, including Titanium backups, on my external SD; but I believe I have a few important files on the internal too.
Edit: .-. Just remember I was on an AOSP rom before odin'ing.. so phone won't boot up all the way. Are there any AOSP roms I can flash in Odin? Yeah I know what I did was really stupid haha.

There's an app called airdroid that let's you control and use a lot of the phones functions on a web browser via wifi. You can browse your files, send and receive text messages among many other things. Maybe it will help you out with copying files to your computer and other problems?
Edit: just saw your edit sorry don't know how to help.

Even then, the screen doesn't turn on and is unresponsive. So can't install any apps or anything.
You could try adb pull, but I don't know the exact paths you should use. Don't forget phone needs to in usb debugging before you're able to use it.

Gave up on adb a while ago. Tried so many times to figure out how to use it to no avail. Plus I might have screwed up too far at this point to adb
You could give Android Commander a try. Read about it on Addictivetips, I believe it uses adb. It's pretty much a file explorer.

[Q] Gallery Issue since update

Noticed this on my GF's phone the other day, moved some pictures from one folder to another and they no longer show up in the gallery at all...the pictures that were in the second folder still show up, but nothing else.
I factory reset my phone today but copied my DCIM folder to my computer first, did the reset, and copied it back over. Now only videos show up in my gallery, none of the 200+ photos. I can take a picture and it shows up in the same folder were my pictures are, but only that new one shows up in the gallery.
Create a new folder and move them over you say? Ya...did that, still doesn't show up. I have restarted the phone and tried running Rescan Media app...neither seems to work.
Kind of the same issue with Carbon Backup App. None of my backups show being there, but if I backup something new, it dumps it in the same folder and shows up on Carbon, but not the others.
I thought about running an Error Checker using the computer, but the phone now shows up as a Portable Device, not Removable Storage like before so I can't as far as I know...
Update: I have tried clearing data on Gallery, doesn't help. Took new picture, moved that picture to another folder and check gallery and it's gone, won't show up at all. Put it back...still no dice.
Any thoughts? Anyone else able to reproduce this issue?
Okay, pulled all my pictures off my phone and onto my computer. Selected all photos, went to File>Properties, Click Details tab, Click "Remove Properties and Personal Information", hit okay on the next popup. Wait for it to do it's thing. Once done, selected all the copies and moved them back to my phone. Presto! They are all there! If I move one to another folder, either cut or copy, it won't show up. Once they are written to the phone, they have to stay where they are.
Tried to do the same with Carbon files but didn't work. Going to play with that some more...

Would I need to do that even though I have already done a Factory Reset?
Also please note I am not rooted, 100% stock.
