I posted this in the Droid X2 group, but haven't gotten any replies, and only a couple dozen views, so I thought I'd expand my search for help.
My phone has started acting strangely within the last couple of weeks. The problems go away (for awhile) when I reboot, but I'm having to reboot multiple times a day!
The main problem is the phone becomes partially unresponsive. By partially, I mean that I can generally open and close apps, but I can't input anything. For example, if I get a text message, I can open and read it, but I can't reply. The keyboard will pop up, and they behave like they are being pushed, but nothing actually gets entered. The same problem exists in any app that requires text - like my 'post-it note' widget. I can open it, but I can't edit or enter text.
I can't make calls either. I can open contacts, or view missed calls. But when I push the icon to dial, it highlights like it normally does, but the phone doesn't dial. I can select the dialer, but it is equally unresponsive. Voice command will try to open, but I get a message that there is insufficient memory even though I have no apps open, and over 1.4 GB of free storage.
The only new app that I've installed recently is a calculator. I uninstalled it just in case, but I have the same one on my tablet and haven't experienced any problems. Besides, I only used it a couple of times.
Even though it is an X2, the phone itself is fairly new. I use PagePlus, and bought the phone on eBay. But it was new in the box - not used. It had never been activated, and I've only been using it for less than a year.
It has worked like a charm up until just recently, but it is driving me crazy now!
Any ideas what could be causing this? Or what I might try to do to fix it?
