The 'nice' people at CPW probably wont be able to tell you what caused the problem. I find them to be useless.
NB: Sorry if anyone here works for CPW |

Sorry to have to be so blunt but, I'd say your girlfriend is lying. Sounds like water damage to me, She probably spilt something on it, or it could have got rained on. Its covered under insurance, If you don't have any you are F*CKED!!!

H2O wont shart circuit a phone and cause it to blow up!
Here in SA some ladies Samsung also exploded, it was charging and a call came through and she answered and it blew up in her hand... She says in the article shes gonna sue!! |

It doesn't. However, it can cause a short-circuit, and that could cause damage to the device. |

yes its called water damage, it doesnt cause it to explode, cause smoke or even make a loud noise! |

Hey, guiys thanks for reply.
ok this is what Sony ericsson told my gf, after she was handed the phone over by CPW, they said that the K750i that she had, which was mine was one of the first 7 phones made. At the time of manufacture all phones where not 100% tested, and therefor shouldn't of gone out to the puplic but it did and they will be invistagting this. Also they said that this 100% garaneteed it will not happen again.
Further more the CPW technician said after seeing thr phone and investigating it, that the phone was faulty, and that the screen, or battery consumed WAY to much battery, that explains why it only lastested 2 days after full battery charge, and he said that alot of battery power was going to the screen, which also explains why the screen got very warm after 4 minutes of Aero mission playing. Then whilst my gf was listening to music she forgot to turn key lock on an buttons kept pressing leaving screen on coused it to get very hot and BOOM.
anyway Sonyericsson said they where very sorry gave my gf a full new K75i AND HERE IS THE KILLER MY 250 POUNDS WHICH I PAYED FOR IT, AND 1 HBH-600 BLUETOOTH HEADSET FOR FREE, AND ALSO WITH ANY FURTHER SONYERICSSON THEY GAVE ME A 70% DISCOUNT VOUCHER, ALSO A CAR BLUETOOTH KIT.
KNOW THIS DOES SOUND WERIED BUT HEY WHAT DO I HAVE TO LOOSE, AND OH YEAH, MY GF WAS ALRIGHT, MOST IMPORTANT THING  SO MIGHT BE TREATING MY SELF TO A W800I.
