Root My triumph's suicide..

Im posting this in the root section because my phone was rooted and running cm7 reloaded when this happened. About a week ago for a couple days my phone would just shut itself off and not power back on. No download mode or recovery boot ups either. Wouldn't connect to a computer or charge (using the red light as confirmation anyway). It would only do this for about 6-8hrs during the day and I would just leave it on the charger even tho it wasnt charging, and for some reason eventually it would just turn itself back on. So over this past weekend I just formatted everything, cleared all my data and cache and re-installed cm7 reloaded. Worked wonderfully for the entire weekend. Well yesterday night about 6ish it went down again, but this time it hasnt comeback up :( I'm not to worried about getting it fixed because I dont think it can be fixed, and I don't believe I can get another from virgin mobile because I just got this one from my last warranty about 3 months ago. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this problem or have any idea as to why or even how to fix it if this has happened before. I tried searching the forums for something similar but the closest thing I found was people who thought they bricked their phones, but they weren't bricked just bootlooped or needed internal files etc.
 
They'll replace it within 1 year of your original triumph you purchased.

So if you purchased your original more then a year ago, you're out of luck.

It's impossible to have purchased the triumph more than a year ago. It hasn't even been out for a year yet.

Just call them and tell them your phone isn't working. They'll send you a new one. It doesn't matter if you've already had one or not. I've had 12 sent to me. Don't say it's rooted or anything, just tell them it's locking up and rebooting.
 
No offense, but I think the first few times should have set off some alarms. If your phone is randomly shutting off and not wanting to turn on that is more than likely some sort of hardware problem.
