4. Replace battery (make sure camera still out)


5. Start N800


6. Start New Internet Call application while camera still out
(it should work) then close app and push camera in.


7. Now pull camera out should autolaunch internet call app and autoflip



This process was the only thing that worked for me and I had tried everything else.
Sorry to revive an old thread, but it didn't work for me. This is a new N800 (warranty replacement by Nokia), flashed to the latest firmware and the camera won't rotate. I know it's not hardware, because Knips rotates fine (Knips doesn't work well otherwise though).

I tried the procedure above and the only thing that happened was that on reboot the splashscreen "stuck" until I tapped the screen.
