Its now happening more and more. My phone turns off my itself and flashes white screen a couple of time. Just now I was listening to a song and the screen went off but the keypad lights were on, then the phone turned off and then turned back on.
Themes like Eternal and Wave perform very poorly with sluggish animations.

What about an update via SEUS before it dies 100%? It worths a try..

this ha s happened twice to me in the last 6 months so it's not a big deal. I have the latest firmware... Maybe it's because it has to free up system memory hence the restart?

CAn it be because in total about 500MB memory is being used?
And if i update the firmware, will the stored data be removed?

yeah everything that was on the phone when you bought it should be still there

just take the memory card out when you flash and nothing will be deleted from it

U can update your firmware with the ms pro duo inserted and your files wont get deleted. The files saved in the phone's internal memory will also stay there. The themes u mentioned run well on my w800 although the phone has restarted already after opening certain apps a couple of times since i got it last year but its not a big problem, it doesnt affect your files or anything, w800 is pretty much like a computer so it can ´crash´ like computers do but dont get worried, its nothing.
