Hi folks,

As the tittle tells, now and then when I close the keyboard from my herald it resets itself...Does not always happens, sometimes I cannot reproduce it, and sometimes it does it several times in a row...

This is my 2nd Herald, the 1st one did this also until the touchscreen failed. Got that one repaired under warrenty. While this one whas in repair, my wife bought me a 2nd one with a German Rom and this one has now been affected with the same bugg...?!

Its just out of warranty now...I guess I could start using the "spare" P4350 but it came out of warranty with a French keyboard and Rom, not really what I prefer...

So anybody an idea? Bad connection between the slider and the body or a problem on the mainboard?

It seems that nobody has experience with this "problem"?!

Well, for me its simple...its my last HTC phone...2 phones who have the same problem, no thanks!

If it gets worse I will give it a hard reset with a hammer, that will solve it for once and for all...

I have a tmobile wing that had the same problem. turns out that after 20 or so times in a row, I decided to figure out what was happening, that it was the battery not making good connection. and closing the keyboard would cause the battery to jar loose for a split second and loose power. I cleaned the battery and the phone terminals and mine hasn't done it since . hope this helps

I've had that problem before with other HTC devices (wizard / Tmo MDA) ... I ended up just getting an exchange.

i've also had this problem with my herald. I fixed it with this file, I think you know how to use it...

This file is an Rom...If this would solve the problem I prefer to flash it with an official Rom from HTC...but why would it run fine for a year if its a Rom problem?
