Ok. My W800i displayed a strange behaviour for the first time.
I added a international number to my phone book and saved it. When i tired to send a text, it failed so i went to check the numbers again and edited the contact. All the numbers where correct so i proceded to save and then my phone switched off, went black then started to blink black then white a few times. After that it went black and it switched on and loaded into the main screen.
I had my S/W updated from R1N035 to R1AA008 in Feb 06 and not exprienced any problems.
What could have caused this glitch to happen?

this has happened to me quite a few times,it is because the phone has filled it's ram memory and needs to empty it. i think k800 has the same problem.

@Frubin i don't think it is related to your contacts free space. for example,did you listen to music or took a picture before adding that contact? all i'm saying is that my w800 crashes only if i used it alot during the same day,thats why i think that the ram is to blame in your case too.otherwise i have no clue,hope that a mobile phone guru from esato is going to show you the path

Ok. Nope i didn't listen to my music/radio or took a picture before i added the contact. I've not really used my phone, been on idle/standby most of the day and only sent one text today.

have you tried removing and inserting back your battery? then try sending or calling it agian? in other contacts do you have this kind of problem too?

@ rockdred12: I have removed the battery, sim and memory and left it out for a while before inserting them and the phone boots up and works ok.
I didn't exprience any problems with the other contacts which are mostly UK mobile numbers. I had no problems calling the contact, just sending a message to them so maybe it something to do with the networks?

No problem, happens sometimes with mine for no reason at all but I guess it flush the ram like bugsiiy suggested before.
I think you can reproduce it, fast connect and disconnect the usb cable for atleast 3 times (wait for the "ting" sound), mine always crash and restart after that. Don't ask me why I'm doing that ...
