Hi everybody!
I just bought Nokia 6101 cellphone and my camera refuses to work. It fails to shoot both pics and videos. It's says something like "the camera is in standby mode" and nothing happens. What can I do with that?
P.S. I'm sorry for my English.
 
press Option when the camera is in standby mode then Press on Continue see if that works
 
when the camera is in standby there is the options down the bottom 'options' 'continue' and 'exit'

pressing on continue gives me another operation failed message then goes back to 'camera on standby'

and there is no settings in options for having the camera on standby
 
try formating the phone not the memory by doing these steps

- type *#7370#
- when it asks for lock code type 12345

and try using the camera again
 
sorry,
so i just type *#7370# and try to 'call' it?
i tried that and got a 'result unknown' message.
thanks for your help so far
 
hmm sec . well i never used nokia 6101 . but try this

I have the same problem.
I tested what "TheVamp" said, but it didn't work.

What to do?
Anyone solved the problem?

My firmware is 4.10.
PS: Sorry for the bad english.
 
hey guys, im having the same problem with my 6101.. did any of you find out what the problem was?.. did anybody fix it?.. i tried restore factory settings.. but i still have the problem..
Hope someone can post the solution for this..
thanks
 
I think the phone needs to go back a buddy of mine has the same phone, they swapped it out for him
 
Oh, sorry guys.. i forgot to give some feedback in this issue...
Anyways, i solved the problem next day I posted here..
I took apart the lower flip part (back of the keypad) and checked for the connection of the flex cable.. took it out, cleaned it up and put it back again.. i tried the camera.. and got it back to work..
probably it was just a bit loose..
check if that works.. otherwise.. i would check the upper flip part and check again the flex cable connection.. if that doesnt work. then you will need to change the flex cable.. they get damaged really easy..
Note: If you dont know how to take apart yout phone.. google for a 6101 housing full installation.. it will give you an idea.. it's not that hard..
Hope this help you ..
Cheers :)
