remove the battery. wait a couple minutes. reinstall/reboot and try again.

if no luck

factory reset -- note: u may lost some data. there are backup programs out there.

give more info please:

1. are you rooted?
2. do you have the latest sprint/HTC updates
3. did you install or remove any programs prior to this issue happening?
4. did you drop the phone, spill water on it?
5. have you had the phone in dusty/dirty environments?

I am having this problem too, not sure if it happened with the last update or not.

I'm really annoyed with it since I text a ton. I baby my phone too, so it's always in a case and i've never dropped it.

I'm still trying to figure out if it's software or hardware related.. so far i'm thinking hardware.

I'm going to try a hard reset next to rule out software. Whats the best way to backup my contacts and text messages?
