thats been a bug in the DX since its release, give it time, and it wont happen to much more, it seems to fade as time goes on, i believe its the system settling with the updated software.

Ever since the GB update my phone has been rebooting at random and quite frequently. I factory resetted the first rebooting phone as well as wiped the cache. I called Verizon and they sent me out a refurb'd replacement. This one is also rebooting. As well as my brothers and friends DX. 4 different DX's I personally know of screwed up from GB. Any who, I called Verizon again yesterday to complain about the rebooting and they sent me to the Data Collection section. I spoke with some dude. He searched through archives looking for a common rebooting problem. He didn't find one. He asked me if I would be willing to take my memory card out and try the phone out for a few hours. I agreed. He asked if he could call me back in a few hours. I told him call me tomorrow(which is now today) at noon. That would give my phone 24 hours to prove itself. Well, later that evening, REBOOT. Arg! When he calls me back I will tell him it has since rebooted and he will go over options for my phone. I will keep you updated as to what he tells me. I love the X and would be sad to see it go. But these reboots are getting more frustrating as time goes by.
Update:
He Verizon called me back. I told him my phone has rebooted twice since removing the memory card. He asked if I wanted to use one of the two upgrades I had available on my 3 lines. I told him those weren't mine. He said oh, ok. Well then I can send you another X. I said fine. I might be through with the X if this next one reboots. As much as I don't want to leave the X. A different phone might be a nice change. DINC 2, Charge, or even X2(which I would fight for first)
Second Update:
I called Verizon today. As my replacement phone which I received yesterday has already rebooted twice. They tried to trouble shoot it a little and the guy looked and was surprised when I was on my 7th DX. He said let me see what I can do to get you into another phone. I suggested the X2 only because I have all the accessories for the X i.e. mobile docking station, car mount, cases etc. etc. He put me on hold for about 2 minutes came back and said they would be sending me the Droid X2. I should get it on Monday. I am curious to see if it will be new or refurb'd. Regardless, I will update when I get the phone. Hopefully my problems cease after this.
