Nothing yet. I've left a couple of messages in the Apple Support forum, but still not answered. I suggest that everyone with this problem writes on those forums too to let Apple know the problem. Here in Spain there's no iPhone so I can't take it to the Apple Store. Did you take it to Apple support in Germany?

Regards.

did you try a full restore via itunes?

Yes, I've tried several full restores, even downgrading to 1.1.3. Now I'm trying tu fully discharge my iPhone and then charging it again.

Please keep on making suggestions.

Thank you very much.

Steps:

1. Turn off your iPhone by pressing at the same time power and home button (don't use the slider, keep pressing both buttons till screen collapses).

2. Wait about 30 seconds with your iPhone off.

3. Turn it back on (I had to do it with both buttons pressed).

With this method iPhone has been on without turning off by itself for about 8 hours. This morning it had turned off again, but that's much more than 20 seconds and I had synced it already, don't know if this was the reason why it turned off.

Thanks everyone for the help.

I had the same problem last week. Go to the Apple Store, explain the situation and they will exchange it for a new one.

mine gets stuck in sleep mode..

i.e. I would be listening to music, and I want to raise the volume.. the volume keys have no effect. press sleep, no effect. music is still playing - press home twice.. nothing. usually have to hard reset it.

happens to me when I don't use it for like 3-4 hours..
