If you do decide to proceed with a software repair, make sure you remember to do backup as all data will be erased from your phone memory. Good luck.

ok, so repairing software works, camera is operable, did a few test pics, but as soon as i restore my backed up files, the problem occurs again.

So that begs the question, what did you restore that has caused the issue? Was it just contacts / sms / bookmarks or was it applications? I guess the proceedure should then be re-run the repair and restore just one thing at a time to see at what point it crashes.
