Possible bad phone?

[Pastullio]

I've had the phone for like 12 hours and it has froze and restarted like 7 times. Forcing a battery pull at times. Any suggestions? I can't even find a factory reset.

Most of us don't have the phone yet. :-\

Be warned. As of this morning my phone has randomly rebooted at least 5 times from just an idle state. I haven't had it long enough to even put apps on it, this is straight the box. If my phone isn't a dud, this is going to be an awful awful phone.

You are the only one that's complaining about that so far.

Hopefully its just a bad phone because besides it restarting constantly it seems flawless. I could easily return. I'm slightly worried though because Ive looked at the sprint forum for the phone and a lot of people are having the problem and there seems to be no solution.

A few issues

I have had my phone since Saturday and it does restart and it also keeps having errors when sending SMS messages in regards to the radio. Not to mention it keeps going from 3g to 1x for no reason at all and not staying connected to wifi. Kinda aggravating but other than that its a great phone. Does alot of cool things. If those errors were fixed it would be a phone I would hang onto for a long time!

Mine is doing the exact same thing! This is a real buzzkill Only hope I have is I bet a custom rom kernel will fix it. I wonder how long we will have to deal with this. Because I would rather have my Optimus V than all these bugs. Putting my faith in devs lol

Most likely HTC will have an update for it.

Actually it seems to happen to all of the VM phones I had. Idk why

My Optimus V never gave me any of these problems. I really do hope HTC patches it soon.

Are your phones sprint branded?

I should have my phone by tomorrow so I hope I don't have that problem.

Yeah mine says Sprint. No Virgin Mobile tag on it anywhere.

Curious.....

Maybe problems from HTC just throwing their rom on? But the majority are fine....hmmmm

If I didn't know any better, I would think I was in the 'ZTE Warp' thread right now!!

 

[Pastullio]

I'm waiting to see if others are going to have the same problems. Try to get an exchange at Radio Shack if needed.

I've had mine for about 1.5 hrs, (yay! finally!!!) and I can safely say (for now) that you may want to get a exchange, mine is working really awesomely.

 

[nuttyandroid]

I had mines for 3 hrs and I have no problem!
