9810 rebooting coming out of clip, running flashlight app

I've been using a 9810 that I got from a friend (3 days now) and noticed it has rebooted 3 times (that I've seen). Both times today it seems like it rebooted when I removed it from the belt clip. One time it looked like it rebooted just as it was finishing boot up.

I've also noticed 3-4 times when I've removed it from the clip that it has the flashlight app that I have installed running.

Never had either of these things happen on the 9800.

Anyone have any insight into this? Very annoying. Might hasten my move to a 9900. Was hoping to hold out for BB10 phone now that I am upgrade eligable.
