Same here. My MT4G is acting oddly. I will swype the screen to come on and it will blink on and off until it decides it will stay up. If texting or emailing, it will blink blue or red in the text area, may erase what I just wrote, or just blink at me. I baby my phone, have a screen protector, turn it off at least once per week as recommended and even made a special bag for it. It does its own thing and it is horrible!
I used to have great service with TMobile, but the last few months have been nightmares. This is phone #3. My first one died after 8 months. I went through tech support numerous times and they kept doing hard resets and promised the new OS would solve everything. I drove to the store that could do it - 1.5 hours of my time wasted. The phone died as I walked in the door, so they ordered me another.
#2 had a bad sound card. It got worse and worse until I could not hear anyone and vice versa. After numerous hard resets, again, I was told to send it back.
#3 is my possessed phone. I am afraid to call TMobile - again - they charged me $90 for phone #2, accusing me of water damaging it, even though I did not. I baby my phones, because I use them to run my business. The dot was the correct color. I went through the entire thing with tech support. They claim the warehouse guys know how to spot this and accused me of dropping it in water!! Really??? I pointed out that the phone was a dud from the word go, and if there were damage, it was from them. It was obviously used, came in a box with no wrapping, no film on anything, nothing. It looked like someone grabbed it out of a pile of bad phones, threw it in a box, and sent it to me. My mistake was trying to make it work for 5 days.:-\
I have never had any problems with any other phone I have had. In fact, I still have phones from 10 years ago that fire up without any problem. My husband's Virgin Mobile Android phone, for which he pays all of $35 per month, works without missing a beat. I feel screwed over by TMobile.
Without dealing with another flunkie telling me to hard reset my phone, does anyone have any ideas? Is this particular model of Android a bad phone?
