Cingular 8525 resets when sliding out keyboard

[Romeo36099]

recently my 8525 has been resetting when I slide out the keyboard. It usually takes a few seconds. But after i slide out the keyboard, my screen dims out then the phone resets. Any solutions

just for curiosity, but does the screen rotate??

personally, I'd just do a hard reset and if that doesn't fix it, back to Cingular it goes

I'd be inclined to do a hard reset as well, I might first think about whether I'd installed any new applications and remove them to see if this had any effect. Sometimes you find very strange behaviour - I installed a clock application that I discovered was preventing me from opening the camera application!!

If your still in warranty, get the hard reset done in good time - if the problem persists after that get it back to the supplier. I think though in this case the reset should work fine.
