Hello,
I`m having trouble with my new G900 phone. I`ve been using it for only month and a half.
This is what`s happening :

Screen is dimming constantly.
mobile restarts automatically like 3 or 4 times in 30 minutes.
pressing on/off button does not repsond... only restarts occasionaly after remonving and putting back battery in place.

I`ve seen others with the same problem. Has anyone had these problems and solved them?

Thanks

I had the same problem and replaced the lcd with a new one i bought on ebay and not had any issues since.

However this thread http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=185563 suggests there may be a cheaper solution

Updating Firmware wont do anything, you need at least a new LCD and possibly a new motherboard.
Send it away to be repaired or try and replace the LCD yourself.

if it's only been a few months, i'd send it back. doing it yourself could void the warranty
