hey guys,

ive had my G1 for a few months, and love it, but a few weeks ago the speaker seemed to go out, so i got a new one. and it has a couple of problems (not serious, but annoying) for example, the screen will freeze every now and then, and i will have to turn the phone "off" (push red button, not turn off) and then open it back and it will be fine. also, when i push red to turn the phone off, the 4 buttons and menu button remain lit. again, thats more annoying than problematic. but, the worst one (just found it) is that it wont take pictures. when i go to the camera, it of course prompts me to "press the capture button to take a picture" well, i do that and nothing happens. the camera acts like its focusing, beeps twice in sequence, but no picture is taken. has anyone else had these problems/ knows how to fix them? thanks in advance!

I recommend taking the phone back, sounds like it's a defective unit. It doesn't sound like something that just needs a few workarounds, it sounds like it needs to be opened up and repaired.

I agree with Punk, i think you've just been a little unlucky in getting two faulty units

Let us know how you get on

well the switch is built in two stages. lightly press and it will focus then beep twice, along with a green flas from the corner. but press it down firmly and fully and it takes a picture. if it fails witht that then its defective...man aren't i late for this forum
