Nokia N95-3 Random Shut Off, Possible Solution

Over the last five days, my N95 has randomly shut itself down twice; I was just too lazy to report it here (as I always have). However, I am writing this blog entry with a potential solution to this problem (although not a solution I like, but it manages to keep my phone from shutting down until Nokia addresses this issue with an updated firmware).

I found tip from this Howard Forum thread, where lots of forum members are getting more stability by setting the phone network to GSM (EDGE) only as opposed the default dual mode GSM+UMTS (EDGE+3G) setting. I am now going on my second day without any problems; I hope this is indeed a good short term solution because nothing is more irritating than when you pick up a phone that has shut itself down.
