I'm sure you can change the flash settings in the camera settings menu (left soft key when in camera mode) although afaik you can also use the star key (well, I think it's star) to change the flash mode too.

Hope this helps

Start the camera up, then press I think it's either 7 or * and it should cycle through the flash options.

Niether 7 nor * seem to be making any difference. I turn on to camera mode and when i go throught the settings the only options are: Save to, switch to video camera, shoot mode, scenes, picture size, focus, turn on self timer, effects, white balance, picture quality, shutter sound, turn on time and date..

is the scene mode on normal or not?
and.....................and hey are you on bestpic?(no flash in bestpic mode)
set every thing on auto (scene and shoot mode).
then try the * key on your phone number pad or from the settings menu in the camera.

I'm pretty sure there should be a flash option in there :s

Just to check your flash is working go to the service menu (right * left left * left * from the home screen) and go to service tests > discharge flash. That way you will know that the flash itself is still working, although either way I can't understand why it isn't in the menu


EDIT: But try what chombos1 said first - I didn't thing of that
