Start bar disappears

[Roman5]

Ocassionally, the whole of the start bar across the top of the screen vanishes, it just goes blank and nothing is visible or clickable along the top (ie, all the little icons such as battery, signal indicator, start button, etc). Rebooting the phone restores it. Anyone else come across this before and is there a solution?

Mine occasionly does that, and the other odd thing it does is leave the small keyboard symbol at the bottom of the screen, not very often but once it's there it's a nightmare to shift, it eventually sorts itself out without soft reset, no idea why it does it, there seems to be no consistency to when it happens either.

Mine does this too but i found opening and closing the camera (which i have on a soft key) brings it back again.

I shall try that. This little start bar problem has been doing it more than usual in the last couple of days.

It happened again just now and I hadn't assigned my camera yet. HOWEVER, I have tomtom assigned to the today screen and opening and closing tomtom brought the start bar back. :)

I think any full screen program should do it, maybe it just needs to be refreshed which doesn't happen with a non full screen program

It happened again a moment ago. This time I clicked on 'No unread messages' on the today screen (I don't use touch flo at the moment btw just standard WM interface) which brought up my text messages and returned the start bar.
