> w810 lights on in macro keeps flashing
Bookmark topic
it is when i both use macro and the light to take pictures.
when both options are enabled the light starts to flash, bright,low,bright etc. very very annoying cause it takes 5 attempts to make the picture i like.
i searched the board but can't find a solution

I rarely use my camera but the macro function is switched off. This flashing happens when i select the light in the on position then after a few seconds it starts to flash Intermittently. Annoying as i use the light function at work. I have a sim free handset and the software is the latest version too.

I had this problem too, but now it doesn't flash every time!
I managed to start the light several times without flashing, but suddenly it flashed again.
Does the software in the phone heal it selves, like Windows fixes small problems??? Weird, I think!
Do someone know when new SW appears on SEUS?
(Sorry for my bad english, it is some years since my english lessons!)

SE gave advise to do a master-reset 2 times on a row ... didn't work for me, but she told me it might help for some

I tried a total reset, twice in a row! (In fact I resetted it 4 times in a row)
I have switched light on/off several times in Flashlight-mode and Camera-mode, and I have not seen the light been flashing anytime since then!
(I have tried to provocate the phone to begin to flash, but it seems to be all right now!)
Then it is only one bug left: The message-tone, witch is very low first, and get a bit higher until it is finished.
The total reset is worth a try folks!

Oh f..ck !!
It's start to flash again! But after a while when I tried the light again it went to normal!
It seems to be a periodic bug instead of an always-bug now!
Better, but not good enough!
I think we have to wait for an update anyway!
I'm sorry that I didn't test it for a bit longer before I posted the letter above!
