[QUOTE="Jim G, post: 1635661, member: 341772"] I'm guessing it is not defective as it is definitely sensing temperature yet not responding as it should. In my case it happens when it is at about 30F (or below) for 20 minutes or so. I guess it take a few minutes for the phone to drop in temperature. As with meleskim my phone did not shutdown last year either at much colder temperatures. I suspect a recent software upgrade is not handling temperature readings as it should. It makes no sense to force a shutdown when cold as most electronics don't care about cold, shutting down only makes it colder. I saw an Apple article where it discussed reduced battery life in extreme cold, no reference to shutting down and 30 isn't extreme cold anyway. [/QUOTE]
