I believe that this can be a hardware related issue. Since you have replaced the battery, your camera should be working fine now unless if there is a hardware problem. Try to bring this device to the electronics service / repair center in your area.

If you have more questions, please don't hesitate to ask here at HelpOwl. Experts here are always willing to answer your questions to the best of our knowledge and expertise.
