Every time i open my casio exilim z1000 i have so set the time zone and te date

Try the procedures listed here.

The option to change the date and time only comes up when you first start up your camera. To make this option show up again you have to remove the battery from the phone for a few minutes, then put it back in and turn your camera on and the options to change the language and date should be up on the screen.

hi.the problem of your camera is the capacitor that you can found from the main board.the capacitor works as battery for the internal setting like your date and time even you remove the battery the setting still there. but once its damage you need to replace.if you can replace its better but if not bring to service center and for sure they will not charge you too much.

thank you

For those of you needing a Casio TE-100 manual, c-tech has it here:

Try these procedures.

First of all, you need to buy a new lcd from here: http://www.ownta.com/casio-ex-z1000-digital-camera-repairing-lcd-screen-for-replacement.html

Then, you can try to buy a opening tool, and replace the lcd by yourself.

Good Luck !

Your battery is not holding in the off position.

There is a company in San Diego that sells this LCD on eBay. Here is the listing: http://cgi.ebay.com/CASIO-LCD-EXILIM-EX-Z1000-DIGITAL-REPAIR-PART_W0QQitemZ170182742657QQihZ007QQcategoryZ64351QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
