weird phone issue

[jedat]

Hi all phone has randomly turned itself off today, no response when i tried to reboot. Quick search online and found the power button/volume up key combo which worked. 15 mins later phone was off again. previous key combo wouldn't work, had to leave phone for over an hour tried again and it worked. This has happened 4 times today now.  

Also since the 3rd reboot the gyro on my phone doesn't seem to work properly, phone rotates correctly but when playng a game (despicable me if it makes any difference) the tilt function no longer works. at first it was just when phone tilted to right but following the 4th reboot now both directions.

anyone any ideas?

Cheers

Thanks for the idea, tried this, when hooked up got told that no firmware could be found for my phone.

Have tried a factory reset and problem still exists, also now when i try to add apps back onto my phone some refuse to open, (spotify) no matter how many times i try, just repeatedly tells me it failed to start, about 5 times per attempt.

Anyone else have any ideas?

TIA

Have you modifed the firmware in anyway such as unlocking the Bootloader etc?
