Phone & PDA wouldn't switch on

Don't know whether anyone else has come across this problem.

The other day, I picked my phone up and both the phone and PDA had switched themselves off and wouldn't switch on again. I removed the battery for a couple of minutes, replaced it and tried again. Still no joy. However, when I plugged my phone into the recharger and then switched it on it worked fine. As soon as I managed to get the phone powered up, I unplugged it from the charger (approx 30 secs to a minute) and the phone has been fine since, running for about 48+ hours without a charge.

Does anyone know what might have caused this as I am sure that the problem was not caused by a flat battery.

9210 OS 4.13

This seems to be some kind of bug of the phone. I had the same problem with 3 different OS (3.54, 3.62 & 4.13), but so far only once with 4.13 = definitely more stable.
I think we had the discussion about this before here, but I cannot recall where the problem originates from.

This happened to me before but I traced the down the problem.
It only happened on days where it was to hot. And the batteries of the 9210 get drained(from max to 0 in a hour time or so) when hot.
