Your problem may be due to corrosion on the battery contacts inside the camera
which can prevent the full power of the batteries from flowing into the
camera. Try this free fix before you do anything else: remove the batteries and wipe the camera contacts firmly with
a dry cloth (heavy corrosion may require cleaning with a wire brush,
steel wool, or sandpaper). Remove any residue that may have fallen
into the battery compartment during cleaning, then wipe both ends of
the batteries and place them back in the camera. This cleaning clears
the problem about 90% of the time. If it doesn't work for you, the camera may have
a problem that requires professional repair.
That's why whoever sold it to you, it's broken. Digicams are cheap enough nowadays to purchase new along with cheap large storage memory cards which comes bundled during sales.
I had the same problem but managed to track down the firmware file qvr40.bin , copied it onto the mmc then updated on camera. All seems well now, so hopefully fixed the problem

Taping the the door is about all you can do.
n Battery short life may be another issue -what type of batteries are you using?
Ni-Cad or NiMah are the only acceptable AA type cells[Alkaline do not have the oomph]
Coming back the to door, there will not be a repair answer to this I feel- there as usually no spare parts availability.
Try the Casio Tech Support- you never know your luck
if the camera is giving good results indoors then there are less possiblities of damaged CCD.
the problem can be with the apparture control system that it is not controlling the iiris in bright light. it should go high in high light and low indoors. it is fixed on low may be due to mechanical friction or the malfanctioning of the control circuit.
try contacting other camera repairer then ASC of Casio
