I believe that is a bug on the phones software. I have a similar problem that if i wake the phone up and put the screen to sleep several times throughout the day, the next time I want to wake it up with the wake button it does not wake anymore and I have to remove the battery in order for the phone to work again.

I have noticed the bugs in the buttons, too. Every now and then, they act up a little. Sometimes, I'll press the menu or home button and nothing happens right away...no light, no feedback, no action on screen...I'll wait a second and the lights will flash a couple times I'll get 3 or 4 vibes and the menu will pop up and close really quick a couple times...all at the same time.

Right now, I just wait it out and deal with it since I haven't experienced any adverse affects. It hasn't force closed anything I've been running when it happens, no reboots, not even really mess up what I'm doing in the app. My hope has been that there'll be a patch or a ROM that'll fix it.

I don't seem to have the settings issue on mine or I just haven't noticed it. Have you tried exchanging it and seeing if the new one has the same issue?

I have had the issue with it not wanting to wake up from sleep mode. Only a hand full of times. It might be a bug or it may be programmed to do that. Here's my thought on that. It is a computer so maybe they want you to restart it every so often. So maybe it allows only a certain amount of sleep wake cycles. Then it forces you do reboot by pulling the battery so everything gets refreshed by clearing back ground processes and caches. The only thing is, why wouldn't they just reboot instead of requiring a battery pull.

I found out that if you hold the wake button for about 30 seconds it does a hard reboot and I have been doing that when the phone does not wake up normally.
