Thanks for updating us on the results of the troubleshooting steps that you have completed. Since the built-in webcam is still not working correctly and the same error code 0xA00F4244 (0xC00DABED) is still appearing, we suggest that we check the camera privacy
settings to see if the camera access is turned on. Kindly follow the steps below to check the camera privacy settings:

• Press the Windows key + I to open the Settings app.
• Near the top of the Settings app window is the search box, kindly type the word "webcam" or "camera".
• From the list of results choose Camera privacy settings.
• Make sure that "Let apps use my camera" toggle is set to On.

We look forward to your response once you complete the steps.

 

Dark black spot on Nokia 5800 camera

My nokia 5800xm camera shows black spot in the bottom right corner in the image mode.



When i change it to video mode it does not show any spot. Also, when i zoom in the camera the black spot goes out of the screen image but it comes back when i zoom out.



I have tried cleaning the camera lens and also tried shaking / banging phone on my hand as suggested for other nokia phones for same problem.



The dark spot is still there. Any suggestions?

Model: 5800 XpressMusic
