Hi Bill,

Would you like the good news or bad news first?

Good news? You're not alone. Bad news? It's something new that's happening with the S2 by the sounds of various Android forums. Is it rebooting when it's in your pocket? The chances are that you're hitting the power button or holding it down (accidentally) and it's rebooting. Apparently this happens even with the lock switch on.

Read http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-international/332758-galaxy-s... and http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-international/342229-s2-keeps...

Cheers, Darren.

Thanks Darren
Will try a few of these ideas on the forums, see what happens.The rebooting happens any where in the pocket on side table on the bed. So i don't think its the on/off switch. My best guess is first latest firmware 2.3.6 and maybe some apps.

firmware 2.3.6 I have found that my s2 reboots only when the WiFi is turned on. It never reboots with it off
