Great find! This helped me fix quite a few of our family phones. I also modded the battery case a bit as follows:
- Remove the 3 "stickers" mentioned above
- Drill 3 holes in the battery cover right over the new holes where the stickers used to be
- If you have a case, drill 3 holes in the case as well
- Reinstall everything
Obviously, the phone should not be near moisture with the holes exposed. However, I have not experienced any more reboots in the last 2 weeks! I've used the phone heavily at times with no problems. I had the GPS on for a 3 hour road trip with charger plugged in (email/txt on as usual) , and occasional use of the phone via bluetooth. No problems during the entire trip. The phone was a bit warm to the touch especially at the top/upper back area but was not uncomfortably so. I have since performed the mod on the other phones and I haven't seen a random reboot in the last 2 weeks. BTW, the phones are running "L" Awe 2.5, no mods.
