Currently the phone is updating. Thus let's hope the best...

Hi!

Did it work? And how did you do to edit resolv.conf...??

Yes, everything worked perfectly despite the camera was no longer working. But after reverting resolv.conf to its original content and rebooting it worked again perfectly.

To edit resolv.conf you can just install rootsh or some package that allows login as root over ssh. Then as root just edit the file with your favorite editor.

If you are not familiar enough with editing system files that you can make something from my description you better don't do that because:

1. Changing that stuff makes the camera temporarily unusable. If you do something wrong with reverting the change afterwards you could have trouble getting your camera (and potentially other features) operational again.

2. If something goes wrong you probably don't have enough knowledge of the system to resolve that situation and you rendered your system unusable.
