My N900 also occasionally randomly launches. And, occasionally, while carrying the phone in my pocket, it has dialed a contact by itself. One contact called back and suggested I keep the phone in "lock" position when it is pocketed. But it would be good to have a better understanding and solution to this situation.

Also I'm having issues with the phone app's orientation. Alot of the time the phone app would orientate itself the wrong way and after doing some operation on it it would re-orientate the right way.

Anyone else having this problem? Although not a major issue, it's very annoying...

What state of the phone application is launching? Cause I've noticed that I was able atleast prior PR1.1 to start the contacts list by starting to type after launching a new program. This functionality is somewhat intended, as you can launch the contacts list within your desktop by just starting to type a name. If you press FN and a number, it starts the phone application. Not having the issue anymore as I now eagerly wait a bit longer to start typing. Are you sure that you aren't facing the problem only when interacting with the phone?

LOL just while we are on the subject the thing that drives me insane about the phone is when i click on the blue phone icon then click contacts then click the contact it automatically starts dialing the number eg if i have clicked the wrong one by mistake there is little or no time to click the end button quickly enough to prevent the call i wish ohhhhhh how i wish like the other phones instad of there just being a tab for "speaker" and "end call" they had a tab for "start call" or even plain simple "call" would do rather then it automatically calling the contact i have clicked on :0(

No magnets. Could there be another cause?

when the phone app launches, it just shows the default view, i.e. the view that shows the call history list.

I cant think one. a magnet can disable screen lock and that can lead tho pocket calls.
