Hello Everybody,
I have good news! Friday night my mom received a text message on her mobile from the Nokia Repair Centre saying that my mobile phone has arrived and is ready for pickup.

Saturday I got up reasonably early (around 1pm ), discovered I had a massive hangover but decided nonetheless to drive to NRC which unfortunately meant a bit of a drive since it's outside of Brussels.

After arriving there the technician recognised me (since Im one of the only ppl in the whole of Belgium to turn up at a NRC with a faulty USB port ) and told me that Nokia had decided to "Just exchange it", so I was presented with a brand-spanking new device (no box/accessories though)!

The funny thing was: even though the device was brand new, they had decided to put my old battery back in (I had it labelled 'Original' since I own 3 different batteries), but they nicked my pen! No troubles though, they ordered me a new one. 2 Weeks wait. Damn

Anyway, drove home as fast as I could, set the Battery to charge, and after a few minutes booted it up. Since there weren't any updates/apps installed I went ahead and downloaded a few off extras, but at night I noticed that I had reboot problems! The browser kept on crashing my phone > unusable.

Yesterday I flashed it with latest firmware, no troubles since then until I installed a few applications.
- The Password encryption software caused my browser to close/crash at random times, uninstall solved it.
- Google Desktop Search Widget also caused problems with my browser, uninstall solved it.

Both (and possibly a few others) also caused me to loose the portrait rotation mode, both for the browser and the phone application! Now it works again, but Im still trying to figure out which one exactly cause this!

This cut to the chase, I'm happy I have my phone back (for now), and hope that I do not have to return it if the reboot problems don't vanish.

Will stay and join the Texrat-Support-Unit to help out my unfortunate successors, so hit me up if you have any questions!

Regards,
Haus3r
