LV problem with K7

From your post you've clearly had your K7 a while, and probably know your way around it, but any chance you've inadvertently set something like mirror lock up?
I always favour a full factory re-set of electronic devices if they suddenly display the arrival of gremlins. Sorted me out a few times and at least afterwards you'll know it wasn't you!

Factory reset is a very good idea. Also, sorry if this is a silly question but it's always worth ruling out - have you updated to the latest firmware? 1.13 I think it is now.

I think a factory re-set first, does this cure the problem, then check and update the Firmware as required.
This used to happen on my K7, fairly in-frequently thou and again the remedy was to drop the battery out .

The Firmware update did it. Mine was 1.11 so I was a little out of date. Must pay more attention! Thanks for your help.
