Using camera flash makes phone stop working

Whenever I use the flash on the camera the N1 dies. I then need to remove and reinsert battery to use it.
Im running froyo now and the issue has been present on the last two android versions as well.
Anyone familiar with this issue?

May be hardware...

Try deleting the camera data, and see if it helps...

Well if this doesn’t fix it then I think it is hardware its almost sure its hardware. Although maybe flashing a custom ROM might help but since you said it has been like that since eclair I dough it.
