I think the problem is that you need to up the iso and try it without the flash. Or turn the iso down to 100.

But when I have the black problem, I just try it again and it usually works, but it is a pain in the arse.

Yesterday I had the "operation failed" problem with my messaging, so I had to do a reset...grrrrr!

No offense intended, but my guess is user error. Look at all these photos I have taken with K850i.

Hold the phone correct. The press down the button halfway. The phone will now adjust itself. Then press down the rest. Now the pic should be lighter.

One more thing,

Got a 4gb m2 in mine, when i press the media button it takes AGES (about 1 sec/artist/album/song) before the title shows.

First 5 seconds it just says album1,2,3,4,5,6 and so on..

with 63 albums on the card it's painful to wait for it to load all the titles for a minute+

The flash problem is a known one and so is the lens-cover-not-opening one.
It'll surely be fixed in the next firmware update.

Try using red-eye reduction flash.

Oh, and software slowdowns are always fixed with firmware updates.
You have nothing to worry about.

You are right, i've got nothing to worry about.

I let this POS phone go faster than a hot potato. Back on the W910 now.

I love SE, but so far the K850 is crap.

I love this phone, but the software is poor. But it will get fixed, just like it always does. For me, there are no alternatives to SE, so I'm happy to put up with it.

I thought it was the way I was holding the phone too - but not so. Don't kid yourself into thinking it's your fingers in front of the light sensor. I've been keeping my digits WELL away from the entire horizontal plane that is the front part of the camera, and I've still had dodgy dark autoflash shots. Kudos to those of you that don't have flash problems with this handset - you're the lucky ones.
