Hello. I'm having a bit of a problem with my beloved K850i. First of, it reboots automatically from time to time (this happend AFTER I've updated the firmware) and one of the most recent, and may I say THE most annoying problems is that the three touch screen buttons aren't functioning correctly. Either it takes at least 3 bumps for a key to work, they don't work at all, or one responds faulty (as if middle is pressed, and the right activates). What can I do? I've called up SE, and was told to send it for repairs to Indiana. That would be an option if I wasn't leaving the country in about two weeks. Any suggestions?
Any help/advice is greatly appreciated.

You can try flashing it with altogether a new firmware (main+fs).

Yeah the phone restarts on me periodically, not often enough to be an issue though
