Sony Ericsson K750 camera cover problem

Just wondering if this is a common problem after a while, sometimes when I slide back the camera cover, the camera viewfinder starts, but appears only for a second then it just goes back to the phone screen, and if I activate the camera through the menu, the menu flickers for a second and nothing happens, it doesn't even get to "open lens cover".

But, when I restart the phone when I slide the cover it usually works no problem for one time only, as soon as I close the cover it happens again, restarting is a lengthy process since my sim card is ancient and it takes ages to load before the camera can get going!
Hardly convenient for quick photos.

I think it could be just dust and crudd interfering with whatever switch or contact is under the cover, or it might need a firmware upgrade? (current is R1DB001, camera v4.5)
