Hello and welcome! I had this same problem with my s2, did you do the update to ICS? If you can't update to the latest version they've released for your phone this is what I had to do... I had to pull my battery and let it sit for a few minutes and then do a reset. You can do that by holding the volume and power button while it turns on. The little menu will give you the option to do a factory reset. Use the volume keys to move and the power key to select. It will take a little while so be patient. If that doesn't work it might be hardware related
