IPhone keeps reseting when I open an app, text, make a call, or even connect it to a charger. Why?

Starting last night, my iPhone 4 which I purchased from Verizon over the summer began to reset itself if I tried to make a call, send a text message, open an app, read my email, or simply connect it to a charger. It would freeze momentarily, then the screen would go blank with the loading icon and I would have to unlock my phone again. I'm getting very frustrated at how generally difficult it is to utilize Apple's support to find a simple answer. Hopefully someone can help me and this won't get ignored. I have tried the following: turning it off then on again, charging over night, closing all open apps, and checking for new software updates.

Sounds like you need to do some basic user troubleshooting, starting with a reset:
Double-tap your home button and start swiping up on your app windows (the larger windows) to close them out completely. Once they're all closed out, hold down the home button and the power button together until the screen blacks out and the Apple logo shows up on the screen, then let go. This will reboot your phone and will not cause any data loss. Let me know how the phone behaves after this.
