Sorry it took so long to answer this. I had the same exact problem with my phone. As a matter of fact, I got a brand new phone that was constructed way better then the first cliq that I was given. I know that the sms pop up app was the cause of that because when I removed it from my first phone, everything worked fine shutting it off and on. They still gave me a new phone at the store just to be safe.

 

sooooo how was it constructed way better then the first one....??????

 

For one, when the phone was closed it was loose like a porn star and would rattle like pennies in a tin can. When opened, it would want to close with the slightest touch. Even after update, the screen was either non responsive or it would be too sensitive and chose a widget before I even touched it. The lock/unlock button sometimes wouldn't work and I would have to hit it several times just to shut down the screen.

I almost gave up on the phone and traded it in for a blackberry bold but decided to give it another chance just b/c of the potential I thought that it had. Needless to say I'm really glad that I stuck with the replacement and didn't get the bold. Not to mention I hated the fact that the bold didn't have a cursor ball, wasn't touch screen, and the keyboard buttons were way too close for me

 

ya that one was just a pos.. glad u hung in there.... me and my wife now have cliq she has whie i have tita
