Flash not working on HTC 8s

[DavidSav]

I've recently got a new HTC 8s phone, and for some reason, the flashlight app and the flash on the camera have stopped working altogether. It worked fine at the start but now there is nothing. Can anyone help me with this please?

A couple of things, your flash will not work if you have low battery. Also, have you powered down your phone and powered it back on?

The last thing you can try to do is do a factory reset. You will delete all your data. If you phone as the SMS backup feature your phone should restore those

I've tried that. And it worked briefly, then cut off and stopped working again completely. I appreciate any advice given/

Is battery saver on, if that is on, I imagine your flash would not come on.
