Samsung D900 Camera problem

[TechnoScream]

hi guys,

Got given a phone recently which I'd like to use but it has one problem I'd like to sort out.

• Samsung D900
• the problem is with the camera, the rest of the phone works flawlessly but when I start the camera The image is covered with what I can only describe as coloured noise. I get patches/lines of green/pink/blue/white scrolling around the image. these problems are recorded when i save the image too.
• It happens on both pictures and video.
• the phone is long out of warranty.
• i have factory reset the phone, so all camera settings are default.

It's a real shame as it seems a pretty nice phone apart from this!

Any advice/options?

Thanks

***Ok this is sorted now***

I'dread that it could be down to a damaged ribbon cable in the phone, and that there are 2 types of that cable, so I took the phone apart for find out which it is, and on re-assmbling it, its all working again! whoohoo!
