Help Random reboots and freezes

I had one reboot today. I was unlocking the screen and putting up with the haptic feedback lag issue. I started playing with the lock slider, sliding it back and forth without touching the unlock dot. Then I tried a long press on the lock slider and it shut my Droid X down. After I reboot, I tried it again to see if it was a "feature", but I couldn't reproduce it.

I had 1 battery pull....i woke up this morning and it wouldnt unlock......screen stayed black.....

I had that same problem twice today. Found out what was causing it though, at least for me.

I keep it plugged into my PC usb(not sure if it does it with the wall charger), and if I unplug it without turning it on it first, it wont awake from the black screen. Have to do a battery pull to get it back.

Was still working though I think, because I got a few alerts when it did it. The screen just wouldn't turn back on.

My phone has rebooted atleast 20 times since yesterday afternoon when I got it. Is there a way to reflash the firmware? I really hate to wait two weeks for them to send me a replacement


I been having these same issues. Lol, I'm having it happen right now. It seems like the only way to fix it is reset data/factory and wipe cache. I thought it was custom rom related, but every rom I tried...it still happens.

Also, this been happening alot with my replacement phone and not as much with my old phone. Hope that helps.
