N97 camera does not work when i open the len cover

I think the camera softeware has bug. Tthe camera software shows up when all the menu, and when i click i can see the zoom in/out slider but nothing there is no image showing up on the screen. The screen is dark and it looks like the camera sensor does not receive any image from outside. This can be fixed by restarting the phone but it's very annoying. I had to reset like 10 times a day. If i leave the software on it's fine but if i turn off the software (close the lens cover) and turn back on the bug occurs. Anyone has the same issue like me? Do i need to update the firmware? Im on the original firmware.

it does not happen all the time to me, but sometimes if I open and close it to often, it would happen.

but I don't need to reset the phone, just close and open the len cover again, and it works.

Same here. I have tried restoring to factory settings, and it worked once, but as soon as I closed the camera app it would not restart properly. ie blank screen.

 

Any ideas anyone?
