LCD screen is not sold separately.

The internal memory of your camera only has 16MB.

It would not allow you to save many pictures unless you try to change the pixel size of the pictures.

You might be able to find one on Ebay. Do a search for samsung s800 cable. It came up with several auctions what you are looking for. Good luck

A temporary fix to power up is to press the menu and power button at the same time. When the lens is extended and it beeps, on my camera , the lens is *stuck* Give it a gentle tug , then try the power button again

It sounds like you might have a faulty camera. I would use the warranty and get it fixed or even replaced. Might be some wrong with the LCD screen .

Sounds like your lens is stuck. Try a gentle tug and it should open all the way. Then you can power your camera down.

Try leaving the batteries out for a day or so, the camera should "reset" itself.

You mat use a memory card reader.

Or,

Connect camera to USB port at the back of the CPU of the camera.

Look for Removable Disk in My Computer or Unknown Device in Device Manager.

Then click on:
- DCIM
- 100SSCAM

Uninstall and install the driver.

Or try downloading the Remote Service in SamsungCameraUSA.com.

Hi, to view pocture and view video there are different settings. like stream is for video so please choose that option to view video Thanks Sangita

There are several different types of flex cable clamp arrangement. In some the clamp goes over the cable and others underneath, it is easy to forget which way the cable went! So check how the cable is seated and look carefully at the connector. Often if the cable goes over the clamp it will be grooved. Also when you removed the cable did you slide the clamp out or just pull the cable? It may be that the clamp is actually preventing the cable from being replaced. I use a pair of fine nosed tweezers to push on both ends of the clamp to release it. CAUTION! the clamps are very fragile and once broke virtually impossible to repair. Online auctions are the best place for getting another camera to swap parts with.

If Its in warrentty period don try anything yourself just go to customer support. Sangita

"IS IT PLUGGED IN?" How many times have we heard THAT anecdote, yet it can be so true. You replaced the batteries - good - but did you do this more than once, just to be sure the "new" batteries were good? Better still, use freshly-charged RECHARGABLE batteries. A battery without enough "juice" CAN cause the symptoms you mention. If these don't work, SOME of the Digimax cameras have a RESET button on the bottom. Consult the manual, or simply look at the camera base. These cameras are an OUTSTANDING value, and tend to be very durable. But, if it's broken, it'll be less expensive to buy a new one. GOOD LUCK!

just three months old?- return it to the Vendor for replacement and get onto the Samsung Tech support Team

Make sure first of all that you have the correct setting- is it in Macro for example, therfie in close focus mode. Or in a 'lowlight/night shot' mode - so that you get long exposures. Failing all that, as it is fairly new you are covered under warranty and you should go that route.

look for a small pinhole and insert a pin immediately after power up to reset the camera

Take the battery out wait a minute and put the battery back in again....

This can be a broken shutter cable inside the lens. Toes it still make the "click" (not from the speaker)?

be sure your lense and autofocus sensors are clean first thing.. then push the take picture button half way and it will autofocus. Pressing hte take picture button fully then will snap the picture.
