E71 camera malfunction

Question

still have problems with the E71 camera.
camera screen is blank (i.e. dark screen)
the corners of the square in the middle of the screen is showing
the photo/video icon at the upper left corner of the screen is showing
when the capture button is pressed, the options and exit link at the bottom corners of the screen, as well as the details on the upper right corner of the screen, flashes for a fraction of a second. nothing else happens. the camera doesnt capture.
the menu from the right of the screen appears when activated.
when scrolling down the icons, the descriptions scrolls out, however, when one goes down the list, the description of the next icon will scroll out, yet the description of the previous icon remains.
in addition, the the text of the description is a little blurred because the letters has a sort of 'shadow' caused by a delay. the same is true with the 'cursor' (i.e. the navigation open square)
 choosing different options doesnt change anything.
when one goes to the barcode scanner (of which no one can seem to make it work), before the message "Camera is in use by another application", and when one returns to the camera, the same message appears.
so taking the instructions found here, one restarts the phone, yet the problem persists (i.e. blank screen) bt this time the message "Camera is in use..." doesnt appear in both camera and barcode scanner.
furthermore, the phone would sometimes restart itself when one stays in the Camera feature long enough. plus the phone becomes slow when accessing either the camera or barcode scanner.
one has updated to the latest firmware yet the problem remains.
what is wrong with the phone? how can one fix it?
to better demonstrate the problem, i will make a video showing the problem, upload in, say, youtube and put the link here so you can see it for yourself.
if you have the solution please do tell and save evryone any trouble.
thanks.

Sorry huseyn, but these are really lame suggestions and not even worth posting imo. I customize the sh*t out of my phones and restoring factory settings and reformatting the mc is simply not acceptable in the blind *hope* that it'll fix what is obviously a bug that Nokia needs to take care of. No way am I going to lose - then spend again - all the hours I've put into individualizing my e71
