Random restarts, but only in Hawaii??

[chellers_mi]

I've been on vacation the past week in Hawaii. Before then, my phone never randomly shut down and restarted. But the second day in Hawaii, it started to randomly freeze, then shut down and restart 3-4 times an hour. Then, when it started to download the software update automatically, it would shut down every 3 minutes while downloading, thus taking it over 2 hours to download the update. After downloading the update, the phone would randomly shut down and restart 2-3 times a day for the next 3 days. Now that I'm back home in the mainland, my phone has yet to shut down and restart. I'm not sure if this would have happened regardless of where I was geographically, but the problem seems to be non-existent anymore. I'm wondering if I should just keep this phone or try to get a replacement through HTC. I've had the phone since May and it has never been rooted.

It shut down and restarted itself plenty of times after receiving the update. Was almost going to do a factory reset but the problems ceased about 2 days after the update when I arrived back in California.

Have you ever thought about the humidity level there because there so much moisture in the air

That was my thought too.. moisture and electronics never get along that well. This does seem like a rather strange reaction to moisture, but I suppose it's possible

I can virtually guarantee it is not moisture.

These phones work in warm muggy places like Florida and the gulf Coast. They are built in Taiwan.

Sim problem maybe.
