Let me first off say I absolutely love my Captivate despite one issue I'm having with it. I'm not sure if anyone is experiencing the same issue, I tried plugging these troubleshooting keywords into Google and I'm not coming up with helpful information so I'm going to try posting here.

I am using a stock version of 2.1, with root, Launcher Pro, Home Switcher, and the Active Kill app (although I tried removing Active Kill and I'm still getting the issue, so I guess it's irrelevant).

Here's the issue I'm running across:

1) Press on/off button
2) Swipe finger to unlock screen
3) After phone is unlocked my phone keeps randomly toggling through all 3 of my desktops and won't stop unless I press the on/off button.
4) The Home button also flashes occasionally.

This is also occurring randomly when I'm using the messaging application and K-9 Mail.

Is anyone experiencing the same issue? Any solution or troubleshooting steps?
