Unable to save Picture; V3m
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

After successfully taking a sequence of pictures on my Razr V3m, the phone abruptly went into an "Unable to save picture" state. That message and a red exclamation mark, in lower right corner of the screen, appeared. I can return to a new image seen by the camera, but when I execute 'take picture' the error message reappears.

I've tried turning the phone on and off a couple of times without success in correcting the problem. The pictures last taken and saved are accessible via Get Pix, but no new ones can be added. There is plenty of space available on phone memory as well as my 512MB transflash card as seen by checking Storage Space.

Do I need some sort of reset procedure to clear the jam? I can't find any info on this problem in my Motorola Phone Tools software and manual for help in restoring picture taking capablilty.

Thanks for any guidance that might correct my problem.

Problem solved

I saved all pics on the transflash card to my computer and then reformated card in the phone. Voila I can now save new pictures. I must have disrupted the photo save operation in my haste to take a series of pics. I'll be more careful to wait enough time to be sure the pic is registered and saved fully.
