Samsung S2 - TURN OFF By itself

Those of you who owns an S2 would have experience this. I own one

Many times I have put the phone in my pants pocket.. and when I take it out .... sometimes its TURN off. Very irritating

Apparently many owners are experiencing this ... Google it..... they call it the PANTS syndrome

I figured out why this happens .. it has to do with the way we sit or squat esp when the pants are tight. It will bend the phone in your pants pocket

and here is how to replicate it

1) Start by Holding the top and bottom part of the S2 phone

2) Bend the phone/screen either backwards or forward. Put a bit more force in bending it.

3) An VOILA ... the phone will turn off "magically" .

Try it and let me know ... if this is a manufacturing defect on S2 phones.

For those who may ask why it turns off in your pants pocket only.... its because of the way we sit esp when we are wearing tight jeans/pants. ( the phone is bend) ... So this turn off syndrome does not happen to everyone... those wearing skirt and slacks are safe

Samsung sold 20 million of this S2... you think they will do a RECALL ??
