The recent change in symptoms may have easily been caused by a gentle shock or firm press on the keyboard (I'm still thinking it's a loose ribbon cable).

Maybe it's just me, but I hate going for problems, waiting for 2 hours, only to be told that it's all normal and they were unable to duplicate the issue. If you're at all tech savvy with a couple of small screwdrivers, you'll be able to fix it yourself and avoid inheriting somebody else's problems when they stick you with a refurb

Otherwise, it's worth flashing back to stock and see if it continues now + find a way to make it happen on demand for Sprint's benefit.

I agree flash the shipped rom and see if the issue can be replicated and then you'll know if it is a hardware problem or not. It sure sounds like it.
