SPL switches itself off

[Guest jbourdon]

Hi.

My cute new phone sometimes switches itself off. for no apparent reason.

battery full, keypad locked.

I've posted a thread on expansys: http://www.expansys.com/ft.aspx?i=139937&a...ad=6&page=1

as I told them I tried soft and hard reseting the phone.

They suggested I return it, but I like it, even if it start annoying me, and it seems to be the only phone close to what I want.

Any advice?

OK, found out why.

When the phone is rotated right, (volume bouttons facing up) a slight tap (very gentle) near the battery will turn the phone off.

The same happens when I leave the phone in my jacket pocket start running, or go over a nasty speed bump.

There must be something loose inside the phone or inside the battery. Could anyone try it, just to see if it is my phone or all SPLs?

Nope mine doesn't do it either, sounds like you have a faulty one! I'd get it exchanged ASAP if I were you! :)
