If you're getting stuck on the "M" screen, put it in the freezer for about 5 min before boot-up. I know it sounds crazy, but there is a thread about 10 pages long about this and that is the only posted solution that seems to work.

well mine is just plain stuck in bootloader screen and i can't seem to get pas that. ive done millions not exactly that but battery pulls. how exactly do they process the warranty. testing and all taht?

I'm sure if you took it into a store, they would replace it for you. If you are still within your 30 days, you will get a new device, otherwise it will be "certified like new".

ok thats fine. i called verizon and their shipping me a like new device. does that mean that, that with that? warranty wise? or do they do more futher testing? i just dont' know what i did and i don't want them to turn around and said i did even doh everybody seems to behaving problems with 2.2 freezing or locking up.

Great write up, hopefully it helps people understand why it's happening. That makes total sense.

Concur with above poster. I had not problems on 2.1. Started freezing with 2.2. I have pulled the battery a few times in order to get it to start correctly. I also found that I could shut it down when it froze but hitting power key and estimating where the off option would be if the screen was displaying correctly. It does seem to get hung up when the phone is warm, but it does not actually feel "hot."
