Nokia 5800 XM camera flash not working since last ...

I had purchased the Nokia 5800 XM and the camera was fine, and it still is, but the flash for night photos does not work. It has completely stopped working.
What is the solution to fix it?
Please will appreciate.
Hopefully
Jerry

Hey Jerrydecarona
Please go to your camera settings and activate Night shooting mode or night portrait mode and Turn on the flash.
If this does not work please perform a hard reset using the code *#7370# security code 12345 if asked, remember to back up first using Nokia Suite.
As your flash is is working during the day, I do not think that this issue is a hardware problem. But if these steps do not solve your issue please visit a Nokia Care Point to take a closer look at your device.

  • Drag and Drop not working since last software update

    Drag and Drop not working since last software update - this is occuring on Outlook for the mac and I just tried moving  an icon on the doc and the same thing occured.  YOu can drag but the items will not drop.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • HT4623 My sounds for such things as Netfix, or ABC Shows, etc does not work since last update.  How do I fix that?

    Sound not working since last upgrade. Get no sound with Netflix or ABC, NBC,etc. worked fine before last update.
    How
    do I fix this?

    Hey Janetna5,
    Thanks for the question. Does restarting your iPad help the issue?
    Restarting your iOS device
    1. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    2. After the device has turned off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    via iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If not, is it possible that your side switch is toggled to mute sounds? See this resource for information:
    Volume buttons and the Side Switch - iPad User Guide
    http://help.apple.com/ipad/7/#/iPad9940e758
    Mute notifications, alerts, and sound effects. Slide the Side Switch toward the Volume buttons.
    The Side Switch doesn’t mute the audio from music, podcasts, movies, and TV shows.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Iphone4 camera flash not working

    Hi all.
    I'm new here so please be gentle.
    I picked up my shiny new Iphone 4 yesterday and have only just had chance to have a play. It would appear the flash on the camera will not work.
    I've searched these forums and can't see anyone saying the same. People mention about it lighting up at the wrong time etc but mine does nothing.
    Can anyone pleeease help?
    Thanks

    When you go to camera, there is a little touch-select displayed in the upper left corner. Turn it to "on" and try it.
    If it still doesn't work, you can go to Settings, General, reset, reset. this will reset everything.
    If it still doesn't work, take it to an apple store for testing and corrective action.

  • Camera Flash not working on N95

    Hey everyone hopefully you can help me out. I received an apparently water damaged N95 (only know this because of the red water indicator, internally the phone looks very clean with no signs of corrosion anywhere).
    Everything on the phone is completely functional apart from the camera flash in any setting. I have replaced the whole camera lens assembly with flash LED and ribbon from another working phone but STILL it does not work. I have also done a firmware update.
    Im guessing ive tried everything and its a mainboard hardware fault?
    Can anyone advise me on anything else or how i would go about fixing the problem?
    Thanks in advance.
    Andy

    I forgot to mention the red light comes on when recording a video but thats all. :mansurprised:
    Im going to phone a nokia repair centre tomorrow, tell them everything ive said here and see what my options are, if any. Does a nokia repair centre repair phones down to component level or just scrap the motherboard for a new one? Not much of a repair centre if they do.
    Anyhow ill see what happens.

  • 6220 classic - camera flash not working

    Hi,
    I have a problem with the 6220 classic's camera flash. When I'm taking pictures, sometimes it does not work at all - no matter if I set the flash mode to "always on" or "red eye".
    What bugs me is the fact that the flash sometimes decides to work, and sometimes it doesn't. At first, when I tried the camera, the flash was always working (IIRC). Now, it rarely works - sometimes, a photo session seems to work and flash goes off every time, but then, at the next session, I just can't get it to work (by session, I mean taking a bunch of pictures and then turning off the camera mode by turning the switch on the phone).
    I tried to figure out what might be going on. At first I tried the phone in a pitch dark place - still, the flash is silent. Then I tried restarting the phone. No luck.
    Any ideas what else I might try (maybe trying to fully-charge the phone and then test the flash, maybe reverting the phone to factory settings), before I turn the phone to service?

    did you try to update your phone to the latest firmware?
     http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/download-software/device-software-update
    or via FOTA right off your phone.
    make sure you always do a back up of your data before doing any of this. if this continues to happen even after update i would take it to nokia care for them to have a look.  
    You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

  • My built in isight camera is not working since loading mavericks

    Can anyone help me please? I can't seem to get the isight built in camera to work on my 27'' imac since I installed Mavericks. First noticed this when using skype but it also doesn't work on facetime either.
    Any suggestions.
    Thank you
    Nick

    If restarting Mac does not resolve the problem, use Disk Utility in OS X Revovery  to repair your startup disk.
    If the camera is still not working properly, follow Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 suggestions. 
    (Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD."  Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
    If the problem the problem continues after using all the above, the last thing you can try is to reinstall OS X 10.9.
    If that fails, too, contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.

  • Camera/Camcorder not working since update

    Thanks in advance.
    Since the update neither my camera or camcorder works. At first I was having problems with the camcorder "recording"  but then when I would try to watch the video it would say  "File cannot be displayed or played"  now the camcorder screen freezes up as soon as I turn it on, and the camera at first would take a picture sometimes, but now the screen is just black. I also get warnings about my SD card consistently also. I have taken out the battery several times, this does not help at all. This is so frustrating. Please help!

    Hello LoYo1979,
    Thank you for sharing your issue with your Droid X. I noticed that Cody21 provided some specific instructions, thanks Cody21. Have those steps worked for you? If not then the next step would be a factory data reset. I have provided a link on how to complete a factory data reset on the Droid X. 
    http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=33552
    Prior to completing a factory data reset, I recommend verifying that your contacts are saved, either on your Gmail account or backup assistant. Once the reset has been done successfully, the device would need to be reactivated and re-setup. After this process is completed, try the stock camera and camcorder. If you are able to record a video then the next step would be to play the video to ensure that the media functionality works.
    Let me know if this works for you.
