I have never had this. Could it be a hardware fault?

I really dont know, it started happening like 2 or 3 days ago.

i was surfing a website with GPRS on opera and also my phone fell out

another bug: reloading the battery with phone out makes the phone restart all the time

i have multiple confirmations from people that were not reachable with MP3 player on.

they had the italian version as well.

It shut down twice on me (2 hours after full charge).
Acting like not charged, but the meter said it was full.
Full recharge again and not happend again.

It happened to me! I just let it die all out so I can continue with a clean and new charge. Hope this goes away because this enough with this phone... if there were any more suprises, the phone would need to blow up! Yeah then of course that WOULD be it! -the 'H'

Sendo X... the x in xtrapain!

the problem of "reloading battery with phone out" is identify in the <autoexecDaemon> file that is used from many programs as fullscreenCaller, callcheater etc etc.
if you delete this file from X, the charging of battery is ok but the programs that use it don't start automatically now.

I think the battery meter it's not working.
This only happening after firmware update.
The usual autonomy is 2/3 days.
For the last 2 days the battery meter stayed at max. I has happy.
So today (third day) the battery still ate max, the phone shut down.
I din't have the charger here, but i think the battery run dry.
Maybe this is the problem?

Well, everything is back to normal on my Phone. Had some programs and games that I had installed, removed them and all is fine.
Programs / games were:
- Smsxtender
- bounce
- 2 fast 2 furios
- Beach volleyball
and some others that i dont remember now
