Hi, has anyone experienced a problem with the camera on the iphone4? The shutter has frozen shut and cannot be used.

Any ideas?

Maybe try reinstall ios 5 again ?

yeah try a restore, failing that you need to call apple

I only installed the software last night well after the problem occured.

Ive just restored the settings but its not helped. A trip to Vodafone is probably next on the list.

Vodafone shop wont do much for you, you'll be refered onto apple

They sorted my last iphone problem so will use them as my first port of call.

Thanks for all your suggestions

hold home+lock for 30seconds.
or
goto settings - general- reset - reset all settings(you will not loose anything, you will just need to reconnect to your wifi as it will forget the key)
