I have an issue where when I use QIK, the camera crashes and no longer works (Backflip with android 1.5, stock rom). The response I received was;

Hi James, this doesn't seem to be a Qik-related problem. It might be because you have too many applications and your SD card is running out of memory. You might want to free up some memory of your SD card or uncheck "keep video files" in Qik "settings".
and
You said as soon as you close Qik, the camera is no longer usable - "the camera" means your native camera? Did you exist Qik? If you have a Droid/Nexus One which allows multiple apps to run at the same time, after you press home button, Qik is still running, hence your native camera can't be used.

If you see that "out of memory" message, you can take out of your battery, put in, start your phone and launch Qik - the message should be gone.


Yes a great response; well I don't need an answer, I will not be using QIK again. I just wanted to make everyone aware of it and what they said was a fix.
