Question Colored bars (& nothing else) at startup

My 6 month old Tilt displays 4 horizontal colored bars and locks up when I press the power on button. After several cycles of removing and reinstalling the battery and pressing the power button it eventually comes around. The phone will work until I have to turn it off again but won't sync. Last time this happened the tech in the AT&T store replaced the sim card and its been fine for 5 weeks but now it's doing exactly the same thing again. Is it time to call for a replacement or can someone suggest another fix? I can't believe that the sim card is actually the problem here.

Sounds like you have a flaky boot rom.

Best solution is to have it warranty replaced, unless you are comfortable with flashing a ROM.

Even if you did flash the ROM, it might happen again, so....

Thanks, radimus. I'll go ahead and request a replacement. I think I can keep this one limping along until it arrives.
