Thanks for the response.

 

I did get your email today and did reply. I plan on getting another battey soon so I can try gettin a bug report with more hours on the phone. Seriously, this phone has killed, and I don't just mean drained, three batteries so far. Samsung says the phone itself is fine. I have my doubts.

 

Not sure I understand your "in the meantime" suggestion. "then waiting a few minutes while it is off."  Waiting for what? to restart the phone?
