I recently updated my software to iOS 4.3

Ever since, I have experienced some messed up FaceTime calls. Sometimes when initating a FT conversation with someone, my screen displays a black screen instead of my front camera. the only way to resolve this seems to be to switch the phone off and back on. My brother, who has done the same thing recently has been experiencing the same problem... Anyone else?
 
I don't know if it's just 4.3 or facetime in general.
I get that with my 4.1 iPhone when I facetime another i4 on 4.2.1
I get a black screen and have to hang up and call again.

That doesnt even work for me. I have to switch the phone off and back on.
 
Seems im not the only one then. Wonder if apple is aware of it?
 
Yes, I've had this problem occasionally. My wife will call me and I can see her, but she cannot see me. She only see's a black screen but she can hear me and I can hear her.

I've just had to hang up the call and then call her back. Works fine after that.
 
It's been doing this before 4.3. My brother would call me on FT and his "video" would be a black screen. Only way to fix it is to hang up and for me to call him. Most times it works, sometimes black screen. It's a FT issue I think.
