This is an isuue with the phone itself. not the SPrint network. my wife said the phone was extremely hot when she got into bed. i too out battery for few hours with no difference. Hands free activation comes up when i turn it on but when it finishes it restarts the phone and does it all again. if i cancel it i can get into the phone but like i said it is sooo sluggish. i can only navigate the phone through start menu, my home page/wallpaper does nto even come up, just black screen.

please help cause i attempted to call sprint but they dont listen to a word i say and send me to someone for the network and not tech support.
a few days ago i had similar problems. phone worked fine on my way to work then all of a sudden turned sluggish. tf3d didnt work very well. i had to use the start menu as soon as the phone reset, else the touchscreen would not be responsive. multiple resets didnt help either.

i used my sbp backup to restore back to the previous days settings, and things seemed to work fine, but then for some reason text messaging wasnt working properly.

long story short...hard reset.

my only thought was it could be the newest version of pocketshield...since that was the last cab installed around the same time the phone crapped out.

I had a very similar experience that started a couple of weeks ago. Exact same symptoms, sluggish, tf3d wasn't starting. Phone kept trying to do a Handsfree activation" and would fail most of the time. Once in a while it would succeed with the activation. Soft reset didn't help, ended up having to do a hard reset and then use Sprite Backup to restore my phone to a backup from 11/30. Phone worked ok for a about a week then I had the same problems develop again. So I did the same and we'll see. And I know haven't installed any software since late October.

Anyone have some good suggestions or experience the same problems?

Re: pro 2 was perfect til 2010

The first time this happened to me (2 days ago) I saw the same screen as on this post. Also I notice that when I had this problem I had just been outside a sprint coverage area and was roaming. I was just about to bring the phone in for replacement till I saw this thread
