This is not a request for help.

I found this forum after i had resolved my issue and thought it would be nice to let others know how to fix a similure problem. Please keep in mind, i am leaving out parts of the story that i find irrelevent.

Problem: Every time i try to access my camera, the phone would reboot.

Issue: The phone was connected to a computer, where data was migrated from an older phone to this one on the memory stick. The camera worked before this opperation. All photos are taken and stored on the memory stick.

Resolution: I removed the memory stick, and accessed the camera. This time, the image appeared on the screen, however a messaged was displayed informing that i cannot save to a non-existant memory stick. i changed the settings on the phone to save to the phone, and took a picture successfully. I put the memory stick back in, and the phone did not reboot. i changed settings on the phone back to storing photos on the memory stick, and the phone restarted it self. after a fairly exaustive search on this problem, i could find no answers. I flashed my phone to reinstall the OS, but when i tried to access the camera, the exact same thing happend. I reconnected my phone to a different computer as it had been now weeks since the initial connection, and backed up the data on my memory stick and wiped it clean. when i accessed the camera this time, i was able to see an image, took a picture, and the picture came out perfect. i put my backed up data back on the memory stick, tried again, and bam, the phone restarted itself. I repeated the steps above, and and this time went through all my files from the phone to see if any of them were corrupt. i noticed a lot of duplicate items in my pictures as well as my ringtones. i removed all duplicates, then put the data back on my memory stick. This time, i was FINALLY able to take a picture with my camera and not worry about the camera restarting my phone.

I hope this helps anyone who has an issue with their camera restarting their phone. If you do not have a W350a, i expect that this procedure should work for any camera phone that has an expandable memory slot.
