@JeanPierre Ah, curious. Last time it happened, I figured that the charger had done it. This time, I have only charged it off my laptop, though. But both times, it does it even when it’s unplugged.

What were the exact symptoms yours exhibited?

Mine triggers button-presses randomly. It is also completely non-responsive 75+% of the time. When it is responsive, touches often trigger buttons that are laterally displaced. Last time, when you touched the screen it would trigger a button about 3/4 screen to the right. This time, it tends to trigger buttons a few inches to the left of where I touch it.

I have tried restoring from SD card backups to previous software versions — as well as doing factory resets — both times, without any luck. This would indicate that the issue is a bug with lower-level firmware, rather than the software that’s on the SD card.
