Hi brobbins-317,

As far as I am aware there has only been one other report of this problem on the forum.

Unfortunately creynish didn’t report back on the outcome but if you post in that thread you may possibly get a response. Otherwise use the link provided to contact support.

i had the same problem shortly after I got my tablet. i thought it was going to be a return to the store job but i managed to fix it. The problem is that it is a generally crap design. The plastic "hinge" bunches up on itself and prevents the catches from locking properly. I fixed mine by using a papderclip to hold the hinge flat while i closed it. Not the best solution but it worked. That said, i have not opened the cover since!

Guys thought I updated but obviously not.

returned mine as it would not stay closed replaced with no questions asked and all fine now
