I just got my k750i fixed by Orange and whilst they were fixing it they also upgraded the phone to R1CA021 and the camera version to 5.3. Now when the picture size is selected as large 1632x 1224 i cannot zoom in to take a picture, but before the phone was fixed i could zoom in 4x. i was wondering if this problem was due to the change of the software version? or is it something else
p.s. i can zoom in 2.5x on the medium picture and the full 4x on the small picture whilst taking a photo

thanks for the help

Yes, the later firmware versions I believe don't support zooming on the maximum resolution I'm afraid!

wrong, im using the R1CA021 and i can zoom when 1632x1224. is your phone new?

if your mobile is CID36 you can use far manager to downgrade your FW.

To write files MAIN and FS directly with Far Manager

@yahyayaz:

Orange must have changed the camera hardware to the newer one. According to this information here:
Quote:
Note:
From mid-May and onwards, K750 manufacturing is gradually changed as follows:

* New PC Suite version with improved user interface and faster synchronization
* A new version of the 2 megapixel camera, with the following zoom capacity:

1.0 = 1632 x 1224
2.5 = 640 x 480
4.0 = 160 x 120

The specification is indicated in the box by a leaflet.


That means digital zoom at 2MP, which is not very useful anyway as pc software can do it better if needed, has been removed for the newer K750i like mine (and yours too now).

I think cause the fault was a mojor one they put a new switchboard - the hardware, so that means my imei has also changed. by the way where can you download far manager?
