I POSSESS LENOVO A680 ANDROID JELLY BEAN 4..2.2.
ITS has been four months i have bought my SMARTphone. Earlier, i used watsapp and FACEBOOK messenger sound recording and camera without any problem. but from past one month the camera and sound recording is not working inside the apps so i can't send a picture instantly. And also i cant send a voice message , I took the phone tO the lenovo service centre where they performed an upgrade but it still didnt seem to work.

the problem is that sound recording and camera are working outside this app as such but not working inside them. PLS HELP IT OUT I AM FED UP.....OF SENDING BIG SIZED PICS FROM MY GALLERY...ADDED TO THAT I CANT SEND VOICE MESSAGES.
 
Tried doing a factory reset?
first and foremost i did a factory reset than took to service center......
but there is a problem i think AFTER i run THE LENOVO SecureIT checkup THE CAMERA INSIDE THE WATSAPP AND MESSENGER STARTS RUNNING FOR SOME TIME(LESS THAN ONE HOUR) ....AND AGAIN IT STOPS.......AND AFTER THAT I THOUGHT TO INSTALL C CLEANER BUT STILL IT DIDNT HELP.....

Lenovo SecurIT is one of those supposed task killer optimizer type things isn't it? Which are basically snake oil. Which we don't recommend on this forum, because of the problems that these sorts of things can cause, and Whatsapp and FB are apparently having problems after you run it. Suggest you try disabling it, which would be better anyway.

Although another possible issue, Lenovo is a Chinese phone, there is no FB or Whatsapp in China, they might never have been tested for compatibility with this phone.
