My phone calls people by itself when charging. Please help!

I have a Sprint touch pro 2. The only addition I've made to the phone since getting it was the WM update.

When I plug in my phone to charge the phone automatically starts calling the last person in my call history. It happens every time without fail. It only happens when I plug it in to charge - after I hang up the call it "made itself" it doesn't make any more calls while charging. However, while charging sometimes the little "microphone" appears on top of the screen or sometimes the phone just starts "windows media player" by itself.

These issues have only been occuring for the past week or so. I don't believe I did anything to cause this.

I tried doing a Soft Reset which didn't help. I haven't tried a hard reset because that would be a last resort.

If anyone can help me I would truly appreciate it. Have a good weekend and thanks in advance,

Gabe

never under estimate the power of the dark side of the force.

Edit. i thanked you just for the entertainment value of your problem.

I have seen this before......take it to a preacher and have him cleanse the phone for you.....you have to get rid of the demons....

If the only thing you've done is the update (I assume the 6.5 upgrade), then just back up your personal data and hard reset. If that doesn't work, you can try what Flyers recommended and get a priest to do an exorcism. Or maybe just make sure when you're plugging it in you're not accidentally hitting the talk button.

Preacher my ass...

Here's what you need to do...

1) Make a voodoo doll of your TP2 and stick pins in the "call" button, (not the end button, I can't even describe the damage that would do)

2) Find a live chicken, remove it's head, then spray the blood and bile over the keypad WITH THE PHONE PLUGGED IN, it won't work if the phone is on battery.

3) If that doesn't work, Hard Reset.

Yes, the 6.5 upgrade is the only thing i've done. I think i'm going to go to the priest first and if that doesn't work i'll try the hard reset.

I've got a local priest who specializes in WM so let me know if you need me to reach out to him. He's pretty good. I would personally recommend a Catholic one, and don't listen to the voodoo spewing fool GS above, I've tried the chicken route myself and it just made my keyboard sticky.

i'm thinking the dark side is much more powerful than any priest. and as far as the chicken goes, i ended up flouring and frying mine....
