Reset the phone to factory, make sure you have no apps installed other than what come with the phone.
Use it like that for a week and see if it locks up. If not, then you know where the problem really is ( some BS app ).
I downloaded the app and followed the instructions last night.
It completely wips your phone, so be warned, but so far no more lock ups , I'll post a follow-up in a few days. So far I am a happy camper!

I think I'm in pretty much the same boat as you were with the freezing and force closing at random, at least once a day.
Did you have any issues in re-connecting service w/Boost after the upgrade?
I sure hope this works - for both of our sakes, as well as others who are having this problem - the rep at ZTE swore this would fix it - but also said to call back if it doesn't, which always makes me wonder...

ok guys I had the absolutely the those same issues, I when on the zteusa web page and there is an update for Warp so I followed the instructions for the update and thats it, download the "Boost Mobile Warp Online Upgrade Tool.exe"
then read the "Boost Mobile Online Upgrade Tool Introduction.pdf"
and that's it. its been five days no lock ups or feezing.
just go to the Warp tech support on that website and you'll find everything you need

Can i download this with my phone rooted???
I wouldn't think so, you can probably update your phone and then re-root it
Many here have used the tool to update "over' their rooted phones.You will need to re-root and re-install any added apps afterward as the update wipes your phone.
I'd preform a backup first.
1. Problem with the Spanish language with camera app
2. Apparently the problem(s) mentioned in 30+ posts above your last one above.
3. Others are having good results discussed elsewhere in the ZTE Warp topics here.
Another finding is seems the imput method as one buddy's thread mentioned the last letter of a word imput or predictive, something like this also be solved in this upgrade.
No kidding? 4 days? Count yourself lucky!
If I have a gripe with my phone it's that I'm lucky if I get 20hrs on standby.
At first I thought, wth. But even with it on and charging, if I open the Status page and wait till the battery level reports 100% I don't get any better results. No BT or Wi-Fi in use. During this "standby' period, when I look at what's consuming the charge it shows Cell standby is using 62% and Phone idle is using 31% with the remaining % as me checking this or that.
You wouldn't happen to know if this update is the firmware update? I was able to download the new B08 Firmware using the update feature in settings... I will wait and see if I encounter any problems... I've had a couple random restarts prior to installing the new firmware...
After reading the instructions, it looks like the update indeed is the latest firmware package... the only number I see on my phone with the B08 is the build number, could you confirm that your phone also has the B08 at the end of your build number... Thanks...
I have a problem with renting movies on the market. I can buy music, however. When I go to rent a movie, I can look at them, rent them. But when I go to watch it-I get a message that my phone appears to be rooted and rentals are not allowed. It then offers my an option to get a refund on my rental. Anyone else have this problem or know what is wrong??

So should I try this when I first get/open the phone or what?
My advice DL the latest firmware first and see if you encounter any issues...
In my asking this it might come off seeming silly, but are you sure it isn't rooted? Does it show SuperUser in the menu?
You don't say if you bought it new/sealed or used. Thus my asking.
Sad news, the phone is back to its shenanigans, random lock ups, just goes dead without any warning. As usual, the only way to resolve, is to take off the cover, remote the battery and power it up.
This especially seem to be happening while charging, but also just leaving it overnight.
I really want to like this phone, but is pushing my patience.

looks like it is time to contact ZTE to get them to do a warranty replacement.
I am new to this forum, and I recently bought the ZTE Warp and had a problem with the screen freezing or not being able to recover from sleep mode and the red light staying on. I realized that every time it happened I had the WiFi on. Once I disconnected the WiFi it hasn't happened since. So whenever I use WiFi, after use, I disconnect immediatley.
