Dear sir,


the first suspect is your battery,which is running in low battery....kindly recharge the battery for few hours with the original charger,because the charging volt varies from battery to battery of the same brand and using this universal charger is definitely going to harm ur camera very worse,kindly go for the original charger and charge the battery and then put your camera on........


if still the problem is the same ,the problem is usually caused by virus and sometimes it might be software failure also, which causes some of the menu not to function,the only solution is to flash ur cam software from the nearest olympus service centre and it is going to be done free of cost,as your camera is under warranty .......


thank you...take care

I need to replace my charger were I can order?

You can try to buy an original, from the brand of your camera, but there are lots of univeral chargers, that moostely costing less and you can use them to charge batteries from other brand too. I bought a GP Digital Camera / Camcorder Universal Li-ion Charger. On this you still have to put the connection point in the correct position by hand, but there are universal chargers you just put in any battery and it will be charged. Just google for universal Camera charger, or visit your local camera store.

My battery is not charging. I bought a universal Digipower charger and its been almost 20 hours and my battery is not fully charged. What is the problem?

It could be the third party battery charger not working properly or the battery itself is dead. If this is the original battery you may need a new one.

Battery keeps dying

Most likely the charging circuitry has failed. When you fully charge the new battery what does the battery meter read on the camera? Your two options no matter what the case are repair vs. replacement. If you need further assistance let me know.
Thanks,

Battery and camera heat up

Sounds like your cheap-o generic charger has overcharged or fried your battery. Don't put it back in your camera. Buy cheap, get cheaped. :( Go to; www.kodak.com You need a new battery; KLIC-7001 and a universal charger; Li-Lon Universal Battery Charger K7600-C, it's about $35, the Batt is about $30 but it is worth the money to have something that works and a camera that you can now use.

Not charging

It sounds like Amazon might have sold you a defective charger radio shack has a universal charger for your battery. Around 49.00 I got one and it works great I would first have you battery tested by a place like batteries plus to make sure yours is good.

Phone is dead wont take charge

You simply need a new battery. Razr batteries are notorious for loosing life and the entire problem is the chargers you are using. You MUST have one with an IC chip that tells it when to stop charging otherwise watch how long you are charging it. Also when you have a new battery let it fully charge and fully die twice before you start normal charging this helps a lot.
