If you have a media card, remove it and see how your device behaves.

Wirelessly posted (Verizon 8830)

Lets first see if it is the media card. Then we can look at reformatting it if necessary.

I had the same problem with my 8120 and it had nothing to do with my media card. It was something with 4.5.0.81 and 4.5.0.93 and the 8120. After I installed 4.5.0.102 it went away. What OS are you running?

It would probably be a good idea to update from .81. .81 and .93 were the OS's that were having issues involving reboots, dropped calls, and stuff of that sort. From what I've seen in the latest 8120 OS, version .102, people are reporting positive feedback as far as having no reboots. I downgraded to .55 and I am considering updating to .102. We'll have to wait and see though.

I had the exact same problem - tried all the suggestions found here without any result. Sent it back and got a replacement - no problems now!
