Wehn i try to open the lense it says another application is running, close it and then start the camera. what could be the reason? pls help. i've already reset the phone but still the problem persist my cell is k550i

Any other program using the camera? (such as custom filters.. etc) if you have anything that is using the camera application then it won't actually close until you close the hosting program; easiest way is to take out the battery WHILE THE PHONE IS ON (important part, that's why I yelled it :) ) and leaving it out for about 10-20 seconds, reinsert and try again

Hi,

This is what you should do, press and hold the menu key.. you'll get a display in a rectangular form with all programs that are currently running on your blackberry.

You can scroll through the open applications and for you to close all running applications, you'll have to click on your trick ball to get you to that open application and then you close it.

Go over the process of holding the menu key for about 10 seconds again until the rectangular window opens with applications that are currently open.

Click on another program and close it.... do this for all the applications until your have about 4 applications running. Once it's reduced to this you would be able run your camera.

Regards

Take the battery cover off. Take your finger and press on the lens area (below the flash) you should hear a "snap". Don;t over do it though.

sony ericsson camare problem...when i will start camare ,,display message 0 hold ,,another application running ,,close to start

Your camera is already online. Double click the camera icon in the lower right task bar and it will work. That is the problem, the program is trying to run twice. Again, the camera is online and working and the access to it is in the task bar at the bottom. You, of course, can change these setting if you like.

OMFG lol!. I just saw this on pinstack.com

My camera had hte same problem for months and this just fixed it!!

1)Remove back cover

2)Press gently, but firmly on lense (you should hear a click)

3)Battery Pull

Apparently if dropped at all, the camera can shift!!

Cheers, Imma go take some pictures after months of not being able to!

hi kay,

u my have minimized an gane that u have been playing or any other java aplication has been left running.
just turn your phone off and on. it will solve this.

I'm not entirely sure with this, but I have had a similar issue when running any Java programs. For some unknown (to me) reason the Java engine seems to disable the camera...

Good luck

Dear Friends,

I have the same problem (Application is still running close it and start the camera) from last Week onwards, i went to the sony ericson service station, they told some Part(board) to be replaced and It will take 15days hardly,I dint accepted his comments, Then i worked full fledged on this and i got the solutions,

Solution:1(model:W580i)

*Remove the memory stick and push the air (from mouth)into the Inner camera.After that it will work Fine.

Reason: If Dust in your camera lens, the error will appear, so it is a matter of sensor.

Solution :2

* Observe the problem little closer, and fix it, b'coz you know your mobile very well than the 3rd Person.

Solution:3

Throughout all the mails regarding that error messages using Googles Search

Don't go Mobile service stations without knowing a nature error, because they ready to cheating us. Becareful.......... Freinds
