Kevin, we're running GetSportz on a wide variety of devices and haven't seen this problem (my personal device is an unlocked AT&T 680). Since we haven't had other reports of this problem, the only advice I can offer is the standard "do a hard reset and install only GetSportz" to see if it's caused by our software or something else you have installed. I understand that this may not be worthwhile for you. If you want more help, you can contact us at support at getsportz.com.
If you do decide to try again, please let me know what you discover, since that may help us with any others who have this problem.
