Problems with the LG 6100

My 6100 has been acting very strange lately. Within the past couple weeks, it has been making a chiming sound for no reason, kind of like a little tune. It happens when my phone is set to vibrate or even if it's on silent. Also, after it does that, it will lock itself up. It gets a dark colored bar across the top of the screen and I have to press End several times to get it to go away. And if that bar is there and I get a call, when my call ends the phone wants to resume the Get It Now feature, which it was never in. I'm beginning to think it's possessed. Any ideas? Has anyone ever come across this before? I also posted this in the tech forum, but it never hurts to ask in more than one place.

Do you have any Get it Now applications that send you a message? I have the My Cast Weather application on my phone and set it up for storm alerts. When there is a weather advisory anywhere near me it plays a chime sound. This really confused me at first because I was expecting an actual text message. It does this every hour and if I don't hear it and I answer a call - it asks me if I want to resume my Get it Now app. Next time you hear the chime flip the phone open and see if it shows anything because I can't tell if I have one of those messages from my front display.
