hi guys, im having a real aggravating problem. ive been getting SODs lately so i decided to hard reset. as soon as the phone boots back up after hard reset, i instantly get a SOD after the first boot (stock sprint 6.5). ive hard reset over 5x and still get a SOD the first time my phone goes to sleep. thats with no cabs installed, no mods, completely stock, no settings changed or anything.

anyone else had this issue? i am currently downloading the sprint 6.5 nbh to try and completely reflash. i doubt it will solve the issue but im going to give it a try.

You should read a few of the threads that have to do with this.
I had the same problem. Took it into the Sprint store. Got a replacement and never had the problem again.

Pay your bill and get the replacement. I have not had the problem since. p.

just flash a 6.1 rom. I haven't seen the issue since I did. its not a hardware problem.

Yeah and while you're at it... You should put windows XP on your PC too. LOL.
Why take a step back? Your phone is supposed to be 6.5 compatible and it obviously isn't. Why not get the issue resolved and get a phone without a scratch on it in the process... Even if it is refurbished. Face it. Your phone is not new any more eiteher.

phone may be compatible but its just buggy. its useless goin through replacements over an SOD just to have 6.5, its not that much different than 6.1

its the rom, its not 6.5. Ive been running 6.5 forever and have never had even one sod. go back to 6.1 if you want of i suggest trying a custom 6.5 rom. The difference may be slight but theyre worth it for me and many others.

Yeah... Or you can just get it replaced on the spot at the Sprint store like I did and have WinMo 6.5 already installed and have no issues with the rom.
But of course it's up to you.
Good luck bro.

I get these every single day. I have one right now. I was playing Slacker radio, and I turned the screen off and let it play. It played about half a dozen songs, then just stopped. Upon pressing the power button, NOTHING happens. I cannot turn on the phone without soft resetting it. It does this at LEAST twice a day. That is why on Oct 1 I am dumping this piece of garbage and getting either an Epic or the Evo. As soon as I get the phone working the way I want it, another issue pops up and it makes me rage so much I contemplate destroying the phone.
