Samsung Reclaim issues? (shutting off, keys malfunctioning, freezing, ect)?

i think they only reclaim if you got the insurance.
Depends because if you have at&t you had to get the insurance plan or else you cant get a new one.

Mine has been doing that too, I've had it for about 8 months and I would just ignore the freezing and it would eventually pass, but just recently it's become stuck in a reboot loop. I looked it up and the only thing I found for it was that the battery needs to be replaced, but I've only had it for 8 months so I don't understand why a battery would just die like that since my previous phones didn't do this...if you have found anything out or are still in the process of looking it up, any information is really appreciated.

Please and thank you :]

My phone does the same thing...it reboots,constantly! I've had my phone for only two months...so,I'm assuming the phones are just crap!

uuuhhhh

My reclaim is great but...literally about 10 min ago when i go into my my stuff folder and click on the ringtones folder the screen turns black and freezes for a second. Then it goes right back to main screen...then when i go back to do the same thing i hit the ringtones folder it shuts off and turns back on. now i was gettin free ringtones from Myxer.com do you think that i dowloaded a virus or sumthing??

My phone has been fine, the only greif its been giving me is when i send a text message and I go back to read it, i can see that the person i was sending the message to said but i cant read my reply cause its not there. Thats the only problem i have had, and i have gone through the settings and i cant seem to get my replies to show up

uh

my phone has done everything described and i dont know what to do should i send it back

reclaim issues.

i've gotten three replacement phones for my reclaim and they've all done it ; i thought it was just because the other two were broken. but now, when i try and send a text if i try and cancel it- it freezes up my screen and i have to reboot the whole thing. and sometimes, when i text- the screen'll freeze up and it cuts itself off and back on.

I hate my reclaim phone...with a passion! it sucks so bad. It doesn't recognize the battery...the charger input has been all messed up...the key pad is for little tiny hands that don't exist! omg...i could go on and on DON'T BUY ONE!

this phone was fine for about 8 months and now it keeps telling me the battery won't charge, it goes on the fritz and flashes all the screens in a weird rotation, started shutting itself off today, phone calls are not coming through and I suddenly have 10 new voice messages, I set my alarm like I always do and it didn't go off, I could go on but my advice is don't waste your money on this piece of crap

I was very impressed with my reclaim when I first got it. I was really happy with the fact that it was made of recycled plastic. But almost from the beginning I had issues with the screen freezing up. It would also randomly turn off and reboot. And when I tried to cancel sending a text it would freeze and I'd have to reboot the whole thing to get it to work. Sometimes the screen would randomly turn off and turn back on, freeze for a second, then work again. Another problem I had is the delayed reaction when you press a key. Whenever I would dial I phone number, I'd have to press the first number then wait a second for it to show up before I started dialing again. Sometimes I would have to hit the first number twice for it to show up. All these things were just small annoyances that I ignored for the most part. But now I'm having another problem...my phone turns off or sometimes just reboots at the slightest touch. If I bump it or if I open or close it too fast, it shuts off. And as of yesterday I couldn't get it to charge. When I plugged in the charger it said "wrong battery, powering off." I attempted to get it to work a few more times and gave up. I'm taking it to the Sprint store today to try to get it fixed, or better yet get a new phone. I would not recommend this phone to anyone.

my phone does all that stuff and now if i go to read texts or anything it will call the person it is annoying and ive turned it off and on and everything and it doesnt seem to work at all what do you think. It continues to call people randomly

my reclaim sucks badly, i HATE this phone! it charges fine but my phone screen blacks out whenever i slide the phone open! and now, the phone is blacked out even when it isnt slid open!! i can still recieve texts and calls but i cant actually see the screen! not to mention, it would constantly freeze up when the sctreen wasnt blacked out so i would have to reboot it and when i did, the screen was black again!!!! and even better, i cant get a new phone till next march! >! I HATE THIS PHONE! >:l

my reclaim goes to the home page everytime i have to many txt messages and another one comes in and locks itself, also my camera on it has a camera error on it and i dont kno what went wrong, im not close to a repair shop so any suggestions ??

my reclaim sucks ever since i got it , it has been shutting off randomly and not sending text messages. it freezes and shuts off constantly. then when i try to charge it , it says wrong battery and never charges

I hate mine! Ive had two of them this second one is worse. It's newest problem is every button on the phone doesn't do what's it's supposed to do the letter p sends my messages the camera button goes to my volume thing. It's done this before but not as bad and it usually goes away but it's been three hours idk what to do with it I hate it soo much

My phone does all of the above and worse. I've had it for a year and it'll delete numbers in my text inbox and appear as "unknown," it'll crash for random things that I do and lately my screen has been fading black and I'll have to restart the phone. Then at one point, I slid open the key board and the home screen was upside down! No idea. I've also set it to 'powerlight saving' which keeps the screen dim for optimal battery saving but lately when I slide the phone open the screen is at its brightest. I can't figure out why other than it's been dropped a few times :\. I do not surf the web on this thing very often or download apps to it at all. Only thing I use it for are texts, calls and checking my email.

i have a samsung reclaim and it's just about the worst phone...EVER! i've had it for about 2 years and it's just a piece of crap now. it slides down when i text, i can't make calls unless it's on speakerphone, and just today, now i can't slide my phone up without the screen turning black. AHHH!

problems

All of the posts above appear to be battery-related. I bought another battery and it only lasted 2 months. Lithium Ion batteries go to crap if you let them get too low just once. Also there is another battery that has a slightly larger Ah output (Ampere-hour) that might not be the battery to use. Don't blame the phone.
