Assuming that, I'd try an OS upgrade unless you are already using the latest.

Otherwise, I think I would try experimenting, starting with least trouble first. If you are using a third-party theme, switch to a stock theme as a test. Remove your microSD card (who knows, probably not the problem, but a bad card does cause weird stuff to happen). Try a security wipe and elect to delete third party apps. Worst case, do a wipe and then reload the OS.
ok,,, we got it,,, while tinkering i just realized the convenience key is is a "2 stage" button,,, pressing the button lightly will bring it out of sleep,,, to enable camera, or whatever your keyset is, you must press til you "feel" the second indent if that makes any sense,,, while cam is activated, (i'm guessing vid also), a light press turns on flash,,, full press takes pic,,, thanks for your time & responses ppl...
