So after taking 20min to calm down .. i picked the phone back up.. shut it off and rebooted & airplane mode was gone. I made sure the airplane mode was 'OFF' and monitored the phone for about an hour. In the mean time i download a Stopwatch app, a Bible app, and Pandora Radio app.. 20min later it went into Airplane mode. So, i turned on Wi-Fi (to test apps).. and i noticed the Airplane Mode kept going on & off.. So i made sure all apps where closed and shutdown wi-fi and reboted phone.
NOW, i noticed when we got home that our signal strenght was really, really low. So not sure if that had anything to do with it.
** DAY 2 **
Sunday, we leave for church, and the phone had been on the charger all night, turned off.. I turned on the phone while leaving and it was fine for about 2 hourse and then it went into airplane mode, which was okay with that since i was @ church. But, i didn't place it in airplane mode. So i went and made sure wi-fi was off, and no airplane mode for the rest of the day on Sunday
** Today ** I woke up this morning and the phone was in Airplane mode while it was on the charger all night with the power 'ON' and wifi 'ON'..so i shut down wi-fi, reboot phone.. and it's been fine so far today. Then in researching the issue, i came across this thread..i turned 'OFF' GPS only, as mentioned in another post, and i will see how that works, and will keep everyone posted on the different adjustments.
If i can't get this to act right over the next week, i'm going back to the store, and being placed on waiting list for the new HTC EVO.

So since my last post 4/19/2010, i had no probelsm with airplane mode. Ever since i turned off GPS and Active Sync and other steps listed in this thread. Then today 5/4/10 after taking a 53 second video on the phone and e-mailing it from my phone. Then turning on Pandora about 2 minutes later, it went into airplane mode, twice. I noticed that the sync circle stayed in the uper task bar longer than normal, then Pandora started playing real choppy. Then the whole phone locked up on me for about 45 seconds, until i received the notification that Pandor lost it's network conntection. Then about 45 seconds later i noticed the phone went into airplane mode by it's self. So in this instance there was a large data transfer, followed by a request to stream large data, then it locked up and went into airplane mode.
Will keep posting until issue seems resolved.
