craziness!

my camera would not "flip" over when rotated after i installed "camera" then i saw all the posts about it and people thougt it is a hardware issue.

well after playing with my new n800 for a few weeks i decided to do the clone to internal card. i have an 8GB internal and a 16GB external card. i did the penguinbait partitioning and cloned my OS so i have dual boot.

well low and behold...i install "camera" on the clone....AND the bloody FLIP on the camera works! i go YIPPEE!

i reboot to flash...open camera...and..NOPE...flip doesnt work!

what is up with that? it OBVIOUSLY cannot be a hardware issue.

most people would behappy to have it working on the cloned system, especially with so much disk space and memory available...BUT...a few days ago i started having problems with my clone (which i will address in another thread) and cannot get it to run stable for very long....EXCEPT......that when using the camera...it flips EXACTLY when it should.

i have tried rebooting...taking out the battery, installing and re-installing new copies on flash and nada! zippo! still no flip.


who haS AN IDEA?

curious if anyone has any ideas yet?

i spent a large chunk of the weekend trying to figure this out.

i just double-checked and if i boot to flash and open "camera 3.5" it doesnt flip when i rotate the camera.

if i shut down and then boot to mmc2 clone version of my OS, i can open "camera 3.5" installed there and the flip will work as i pass the 90 degree point as i rotate it forward and it will flip back when i come back to pointing the camera at me.

so this cannot be a "hardware" issue as a lot of people thought.

I have experienced this as well flip works when I boot from mmc sd card. Im hoping this bug can be adressed with the new Diablo Communnity SSU being released we need to let them know about this bug though...
