And I'll Credit Wildman for these:

this will wipe device and restore device to the same state that you bought the device new.. If you have data on your SD Card that you want to prserve, remove it & copy the data afterwards, THEN reformat it before loading any APPS.

Android version 2.3 (Gingerbread)

1.     Power the device off.

 Press and hold the Power button then select Power off.
 If the device isn't responding to input, remove / replace the battery

.

2.    Press and hold the Home key then power the device on.

  Press the Power button while holding Home.

3.     From the Android Recovery screen, press Volume Up / Down simultaneously.

4.     Select wipe data / factory reset then press the Power button.

5.     Select Yes -- delete all user data then press the Power button.
 Reset process to may take approximately 1 minute.

6.     Ensure reboot system now is selected then press the Power button.

Hi Trentson,

I understand your concerns. I would be frustrated if my phone experience the same issue and shut off on it's own. I see that other customers have resolved a similar issue by doing a Factory Reset. Please follow the instructions provided by Cody21 (thank you!) in this forum. Please keep the forum community posted and let us know if the factory reset works for you as well.
