I don't get it, I got 2 reports for the OP, including one by OP to delete his OP.
But that will remove the entire thread, what do you guys want me to do?
Please PM me, I'm not following this thread, thank-you.

So the OP cannot take a bit of criticism and has overreacted. Big deal. It has happened to all of us. Not a reason to delete the whole thread. I say leave it as it is. There are some useful lessons in there, for example on how to report a bug and how to always start from yourself when something goes wrong.

Yeah, sure, I got pissed off and asked that the post be closed, as I read back through, certain people were rude and got quite abusive...I don't come here to be abused.
Yes Jalyst, I originally wanted the thread closed and surely, as a member here, if I request a thread being closed it should be closed - but I'm not arguing. Leave it open or close it, i don't give a toss, problem sorted.

However what I think was that obviously you were worried of the condition of your device, which does make you sensitive to verbal jests, right?
I think what probably set people off was that you came across as a bit arrogant there, when suggested that you had bothched the device yourself (which I still think likely) but it is OK, we all do tweek our devices to the edge and sometimes it does lead to undesired thingies...

I will leave all as is, the OP has just PM'd me to explain things further, & I've just read all the posts since my last post;
Please do try to be respectful of one another folks, & remember the written word can be very hard to interpret (a large chunk of human comms is wrapped-up in our body language).
Instead of assuming the worst from something someone's written, consider other possible tones, & if you still feel the tone's no good, don't respond if you think it'll escalate things.
Of course if they're flat out wrong about something, you're free to point that out in a friendly/respectful manner...
Help or don't help, you're free do either, but lets try to keep this forum as welcoming as possible to new folks or less frequent posters, not just the old hats!
BR.
*EDIT*
But I will close it now, since the purpose for it (resolving an issue the OP was having) is no longer existent.

In my case, it was beneficial to reset dconf completely, as I've messed with it in the past, which is probably the very reason I had no flashlight in video mode.
