Disconnecting after an intermediate signing response leaves the firmware waiting for a continuation while the device stays powered. On reconnect, the old workflow consumes the first unlock request and returns an encrypted error. Pairing can still succeed because the unlock response is ignored, masking the stale session. Send HWW_REQ_RESET (0x03) after version discovery and before unlock and Noise pairing on firmware v9.28.0 or newer. Keep the helper private, retry BUSY responses once per second, and require an ACK without a payload. Older firmware keeps its existing connection flow. Add a simulator regression that stops signing with previous transaction data missing, disconnects, and reconnects to the same running process. Record the real TCP responses to check that unlock succeeds, then pair and read the root fingerprint. Older simulator versions exercise ordinary reconnects. The regression uses the locally built v9.28.0 C simulator and fails if the reset call is disabled. Firmware counterpart: BitBoxSwiss/bitbox02-firmware#2111
