Galaxy S2 shutting off in idle mode
Recently, I noticed that my phone shuts off while in sleep mode. This just happens when I don't check it for a while and the display is turned off. When I do go to check my phone, it's unresponsive, even if I hold down the power button. So far, I've had to remove the batter every time this has happened in order to reboot it.
I just don't get what the issue is. I'm probably missing phone calls because I'm not even aware that my phone is turning off. I feel like after the ICS update my phone has had issues. I already performed a factory reset last week since I was having a problem with the notifications not ringing and vibrating, and now, this is happening on top of that.
If anyone has any suggestions, that would be greatly appreciated.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 i777.
Oh, and another thing, I noticed that my batter is at 95-100% before it shuts off by itself, and once it boots up again it's down to 85-89%. I also feel like it might be an issue with overheating: I noticed that my phone feels hot after I've been using it for a while, like texting or using the internet, and then I set it down to do other stuff when I notice that it's turned off. My phone usually feels really hot too, and the case I have for my phone probably does not help either.

Sounds like everyone that has gotten replacment S2's still experience the problem after it makes you update to 4.0.4.
Mine continues to work with no shut downs or freezes for over a month now. Rooted with factory 4.0.3. I think the rooting keeps it from automatically updating to 4.0.4 which is saving me. Easy fix for AT&T might be to turn the 4.0.4 update off and let people roll back to 4.0.3. Even better, go ahead and give us Jelly Bean that works.
Still amazed that as easy as this is to understand, AT&T still offers no solution.

Typically, the number of people that actively complain or take action on a problem are a fraction of a percent of those that actually do have the problem. In this case, if there are a hundred people complaining about this problem, in all likelyhood, probably 10,000 phones out there have the problem. Not all elderly folks or kids know enough to complain to a forum, etc. Many people just don't do anything.

When the H is the fix coming? I, like everyone else here is fed up. Are you listening ATT/Samsung/Google? If I am forced to go to a new phone, I plan on going to a new carrier as well. Are you listening ATT?
