my p800 has completely gone bzirk!! i dont know what happened to it, but all of a sudden i noticed, that its light is flashing the whole time. by the light flashing i mean as in it dims, and then goes back to normal, u know the effect of the light when u choose an applicaation and it dims a little, it keeps on doing that. and whenever i try to lock the screen using tracker, it comes back into normal. i tried a hard reset, i tired keeping it shut for some time. tried taking out the DUO.. i didnt install anything...or uninstall anything.. it just started doing it all of a sudden!! what is the cause? and what should i do?
i recorded this video fromm Remote P800, heres a direct link

the problem is that the only thing they are gonna do is flash it or format it or such stuff... and plus, my warranty is in UK, and am on holiday, so i should rather wait, then just giving in around 20 pounds just to get the phone checked, plus extra charges on anything done extra to the phone. so its quite not worth it.... am just cluelesss what to do.. one interesting point is that when the flip is ON, the stupid dimming thingy doesnt happens!!!!! thats pretty weird...

i tried lights auto/off/on, it still didnt work, when the light is off, it still dims to a lower level and goes back to normal... there is some thing wrong with the prorams running in the background, coz whenever the light goes off, the screen flashes, and it comes back on.... as in the screen is being touched or something like that....
