My dx is acting up. The earpiece speaker quit and now its dropping calls randomly. As im writing this its randomly going to my playlist. Aarrgg! Im still inside the 30 day Verizon deal so I can go get another one but I would like to know if its something I did so I don't do it again. Its 2.2 official unrooted by the way. Thanks

What happens when you pull the battery?

You mess up your memory even more by creating orphaned files, especially temp files that were in use by the operating system at the time the battery was pulled.

Try power cycling the phone first by properly shutting down the phone, then powering it on to reset it. Then if that doesn't work, do a Factory Data Reset.

I started deleting music files so it would quit going to the shuffle hoping I could at least use it as a phone until I got home to exchange it. Now everything seems to be fine, even the speaker started working again. Could there have been a virus in one of the music files?
