Hi Mohammed sorry for the delay in answering i'm new to forums and couldn't find my way back. The day after receiving the answer to my question i did the hard reset twice just to make sure as the camera didn't work after the first time, second time was also to no avail. The message " camera Just crashed" appearing after the camera icon was pressed at the bottom of the blank screen. However the following day I was checking out the phone again and to my surprise the camera opened up and was able to take a picture without a crash, so can only assume the hard reset contributed to the camera working again but the result was not immediate.

ZTE OPEN hard reset

Before you buy a new cell phone or new tablet, please try the following procedure to repair your device. First charge your battery, backup your important data if possible and in most cases take out SIM and SD card. It is impossible to recover your data after doing a hard reset, so online backup is always important. For all of your data, a backup should be done on an external device, hard drive, raid system or media. With or without insurance, if your cell phone lost, damaged or stolen at least your invaluable data is backed up in a safe place.
