It did give me a message that says "SIM card detected. Your device will now switch to Global mode" is that normal? I dont remember seeing it when i first setup the device.

well, i did a hard reset and the phone is still stuck in airplane mode, i've never seen this type of thing happen before.

Maybe it is a sign that you need a vacation?

If hard reset didn't work, I say exchange it.....

I think I figured it out, my battery is shot. I let the phone sit there for a few minutes when charged and the phone portion of the TP2 turned on, so i unplugged the phone and immediately it turned off (phone was plugged in for over an hour).

What would that have to do with it?

because as soon as i unplug the phone from the charger, the phone displays a low battery message and then turns off. And this is after the phone being plugged in for a decent amount of time (at least 20-30 minutes).

my mogul was doing the same **** towards the end of its life,

battery may be bad, so it doesn't have enough power to stay on.

try charging it on a computer or if thats what you were charging it on, charge it on a wall charger.

It looks like it seems to be holding a charge now. I think my main problem was that i plugged it into my PS3 and charged it that way. I used to charge my TP1 all the time this way with no side effects but i guess the TP2 is different. I'm going to let it charge overnight and see how it is in the morning. Word to the wise...PS3 = not a good charger for TP2.

i had a similar issue with my tp2. the first time i plugged it into my computer it wouldn't charge it. but a few days later it decided it liked charging from the pc. it may be the setting in settings-> power-> battery in there there is a check box that says when on and connected to a computer do not charge. make sure its not checked, this could be your issue.
