Camera problem: Yellow tint first 20 seconds?

Hi, I'm having a problem with my X10 camera, or maybe I'm missing some setting? Whenever I start the stock camera (or even other camera apps like vignette) I get a yellow tinted picture the first 20 or so seconds and this happens only indoors with low light levels. It takes the camera from 20 seconds up to 30 to adjust and sometimes more and I have to wave it around to get it exposed to lights and objects, after that the picture adjusts fom very yellowish to normal colors gradually & slowly. Tried adjusting exposure & white balance, set to 'auto', 'night', 'indoors' etc and tried all possible settings and nothing helps. After the shot is taken, the camera goes again to yellow & I have to wait again those 20-30 seconds & wave around before next shot. I know this should be rather normal with room lights but I've compared to other mobiles (not other X10s though) and none have the delay at all, only on my X10. Not even my older SE mobile does this. Is there a setting I'm missing? help please if anyone knows.
