N97 Flash Flood problem (white light in photo)

The most annoying thing about N97 is that when you slide the camera cover every time it scratches the camera area and in short period it could result a permanent scratch which causes the part of the flash to enter into the camera causing a flash flooding in the picture taken.

 

i also had the same problem and i solved it

 

so i like to share it with everyone 

 

please see the video here

This was a reported issue and Nokia did release a fix in the form of an upgraded slider part - you should contact your nearest Nokia Service Center and they should be able to order the part and fit it for free.

I had the camera cover and GPS Antenna replaced on my N97 a year ago under warranty, it was a known issue and should be done free of charge !

If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

Re: N97 Flash Flood problem (white light in photo)

does the replaced slider assembly is prone to scratch ?
