if your unit is still under warrenty then send it back and get it fixed Free!!! if not then its not really good news... this contact service fault can be caused by a number of things, these include faulty backup battery, faulty RF IC, corrupt flash etc... try flashing the unit, if this doesnt fix it try changing the backup battery, if not then reflow the RF IC, if not then get a new phone!!!!

Hope this helps and if i have missed anything or am wrong about something please feel free to bash my head!! :P
