RAZR V3 Randomly Dropping calls!!!

My Silver V3 is dropping calls light hell, sometimes I have a full conversation that last like 10mins and its flawless, but most times its just shlt. I call someone and it drops the call immediately as I press talk or just as the person answers or a few seconds or minuites into the conversation. Its actually quite random to tell the truth, you can never know when its gonna drop the call. And also sometimes when it drops the call, the phone seems to restart or you just see the screen go blank(white) for a second and since night I got it the worste just as my girl called me, she called me and as I answered the phone it just droped and then I caled her back and it drop with the white screen effect and it continued every time a call was attempted until I got frustrated and slammed the flip shut and when I opened it and press the talk button once it blanked out and then restarted. (Oh and sometimes it just looses signal)
I thought it was the flash that I had on it so I reflashed it and it worked ok the first few calls and then started the bullshlt (this was actualy last week when I flashed it so all I just said happened after) and I dont wanna change this flash cuz its the one with the too many features that I love like the increased camera quality which is incredibly better. I dont want to reflex it cuz this is the retail motorola flex that has evreything. Oh and also could the bootloader be at fault cuz I change it the first night I flashed and flexed my phone cuz I didnt know the difference, if so were can I find some bootloaders like the original one?
I am planning to do a complete system overhaul and just RE-everything, Flash, Flex, Bootloader, EVERYTHING, but the thing is if it doesnt work i'm afraid that my temper will get the better of me and I just toss the *****(thats what happened to like 2 of my phones lol). I'll try and hold off the Overhaul untill I get some suggestions but I cant start thenew week with this problem cuz am exspecting very important calls, calls that I cant afford to be dropped!
Thanks in advance!

there are many problems.
first, you probably flashed your phone incorrectly with the incorrect software.
second, dropped calls could be due to network.
third, defective phone..

How would I determine if I some how Flashed it wrong? I have flashed it like 3 times with 3 different Firmware but only one Flex, am gonna have to download another motorola retail Flex cuz its the only one worth having, all the others require SEEM edits to enable alot of things.
You can count out the network cuz am absolutely sure its the phone cuz none of my previouse phones gave this problem and theyu were all from the same network.
An I wish it couldnt be a manufacturer defect cuz I aint got no way to return it so lets not look in that direction cuz anywhere in that direction means am screwed!
Anyways thanks for being the first to suggest something and I am rather greatful
Anymore suggestions?

Well people seeing that I wasnt getting enough responses I was force to re-flash the phone, completely Reprogram it both Flash and Flex, I have a whole bunch of Flashes and Flexes that I dont have a clue about their precise features but one caught my eye cause it was the only one with the extension .SBF, which I presume to be a monster pack with both Flash and Flex integrated into one thing. Amazingly it seems to have fix practically all the problems I was having with my V3 all exept the call dropping issue bcuz I havent had enough calls to confirm a successful solution but the Caller ID issue is gone, this also improves the picture quality(this was one of the factors that made me hesitant to totaly reprogram the phone), it has the multi-character search for the phonee book, I mean everything.
I bet a new problem will arrise quite soon, oh yeah I got one but it doesnt involve the Firmware at all, its adding skins to the phone, there giving me hell. B4 I Flashed it I had on a Mac OSX skin and now when am using P2KTools to put it back on it doesnt seem to be creating the folder and so on seems to do it but actually it sends the files to "NO WHERE" cuz its the same amount of free space and such so I dont know, am just gonna start a theread about it ok guys.
Will update if any new problems arrise.
AM OUT!!!

Hey yaall do you think that the battery could cause the phone to constantly drop calls? Cuz I noticed that when my phone drops the call it seems to blank out temporarily and then you see the white screen for a second then it goes back to Idle mode.
Give info Please!!!!
Please answer me!!!

I think you flashed with the wrong/corrupted software bud
leave that to the pros

put your providers software back on

If I do that "Genius", it wont work on my network and plus its gonna be locked. Plus could a total of 7 different sofwares be corrupted, wrong or bad?
Think about that!
