We have three new LG Optimus S phones and they all are exhibiting the same problem... when the screen is locked, face down on a table and it has been untouched for a while, it will unlock on its own and start doing ramdom "stuff". I first noticed it happening in my pocket, that I would lock the screen and then pull it out to find it has unlocked and I have a history of 4-6 screens with gibberish on them, like it went to text mode and was typing in random gibberish from voice and/or keyboard input. I chalked it up to it being in my pocket and it somehow unlocking (but sliding the unlock slider?? ).
This morning I awoke to find my phone that had been locked with the screen off and placed face down on my nightstand to charge had tried to download a new application from Market I had not selected sometime during the night. The wife's has done similar things several times.
But it also does it when it is locked and face down on a table being charged. The wife's does it too. Locked and black screen when we go to bed. Wake up and this morning, I found it had tried to download a Sprint application. The wife's had unlocked too but it just had a bunch of gibberish on multiple screens.
Does anyone else's LG Optimus S phone unlock on its own and act like you have been selecting random screens?
I assure you (!!!) that after noticing this, I have triple-checked my phone to see that it locked, screen was black, and face down away from anyone and any pets so no one and no animal could have touched its screen to unlock it.
One more thing... in the interest of saving my battery from unnecessary battery drains, I am in the habit of making sure applications like the GPS is off and that I have not clicked on either of its two GPS map applications. Yet once in a while I will check and, sure enough, the GPS has been turned back on and draining my battery. The wife's does the same thing and she NEVER uses her phone's GPS since she has one in her car.
