N73 Camera Slider Problem

[BFCTom]

Hi,

My N73 camera has decided to stop working, everything else on the phone is fine just when I slide the cover off to reveal the camera the application doesn't load. Nothing happens at all.

I've tried doing a factory reset and that didn't solve the problem, so I'm guessing the back cover is not pressing the right pins or something.

Anyone got any idea how I can launch the camera application without the phone doing it automatically through the slider?

Thanks.

Is there not a camera menu within the menu of the phone??. I dont know as i havent used the n73 myself. Maybe worth taking it back to where you bought it from and get them to fix it or take it to a nokia service centre.

There is but it only works for the secondary camera on the front of the phone.

I've fixed it temporarily I think! The wonders of blu-tac

Yeah I might just buy a back cover for a long term fix, but the blu tac should last me over the Christmas period!

Cheers guys
