Hello guys!

I don't know what exacly is happening... When I press my backcover in a determined place, my galaxy shutdowns.

Look the attachment image (I found on Google, and made a circle with the spot that I'm not "allowed" to press):

I have tested pressing this spot while it was turning on.... It's just turned off.

Does anyone know what is happening? Is it possible to fix without sending to Samsung?
My S2 has fallen ~5 times. But I've never seen this issue. It happened yesterday, and finally today I found the "spot".

Have you got another battery you could try? Otherwise, I wonder if it's worth cleaning the battery contacts.
Well, I tried to cleaning the battery contacts. But the problem isn't battery, because even when I hold my battery with my hands when press that spot, my gs2 shutdown.

Well, as I said, it isn't the battery. I tried to use my friend's battery. The same issue occured.

I'm think in buy a new backcover, but this time a aluminion one. Why? Cause it is less flexible, and probably harder to press and shutdown my phone.

I lost my invoice document, so I can't return to Samsung.

If someone know what is happening, I will try to use a teardown manual (ifixit) and disassembly my phone.
