My phone will randomly reboot only if i have WiFi on. To duplicate my problem all I need to do is enable WiFi and set it next to me. After about 10-15 minutes the device will vibrate and reboot. This has happened several times and has only happened when I leave WiFi on. Has anyone else had these problems, if not give it a try and see what happens.
 
yeah ive recently started using my wifi more. i dont know if its just doing it while that is on but ive had quite a few random reboots in the last few days. ive gotten them while using the camera(video/cam) and just . . well randomly. i think the phone has great potential....just not sure what it needs or doesnt.

I found out what was causing it on mine. I had the HTC Mail client installed. I though it might be it so I removed it and now it doesn't do it anymore.

I've had the same problem on my phone since I got it a week ago. I also had it get into a continous restart boot, in which case I had to take the battery out to fix. I did a factory reset on the phone. This fixed the boot loop but didn't fix the random restart with wifi on. I havent installed/deleted any apps since the factory reset. If anyone has any ideas let me know, otherwise I'm just going to get it replaced.
