Thank you Ginsberg for your response and suggestions. I appreciate your help and the time you take to help out our fellow community members.
@foosball,
Have the battery contacts been inspected for damage or debris? Does the issue occur when the device is being held or when the device is on a flat surface? Are you using the original battery that came with the phone, or a third-party battery you purchased elsewhere?
The battery may somehow become loose over time and the vibration from the lid closing or handling of the phone is causing friction which shuts the phone off. Have you tried a different battery?
Please post back if you are still having this issue and I'll be happy to continue troubleshooting.

After going through an entire wash/rinse/spin I'm amazed it works at all!! Suggestion - go get another pre-paid and activate it on your current account. Your current one will likely never work right again.
