Hey guys so im having some issues when typing text messages or when typing at all on the keyboard after recently doing something. So for example, I took a call and then ended the call and went to resume sending a text message. However, when I began typing the letters were not responding as fast as they usually do so I was making all kinds of errors. I have tried using the stock jelly bean keyboard which has the same issue and I am currently trying out swiftkey 3 and it is doing the same thing. It seems to only happen after I recently close another app or finish a task like a call. I am hoping there is some type of fix in settings or it may just be the outdated hardware however, when typing normally I can type quickly with little to no errors at all and the keyboard picks up every one of the letters I press. Any and all help is appreciated. I am also running stock jelly bean, nothing else, go the phone about two weeks ago, GSM nexus from google play. Loving it otherwise though, also loving the switch to prepaid thanks to a forum post here as well.

Has anyone noticed the stock Messages app has some glitches in it now. Specifically, I've found 2:
1. If I'm typing a text, about 50% of the time, the screen will suddenly jump to the very top of the conversation list. This also removes the window you are typing in and stops you typing. So if you have around 200 messages in that particular conversation, it can be quite irritating to have to start flicking back down to continue.
2. This one is less frequent but I'm now sure it exists. When I tap on a particular conversation from the main list, occasionally I get taken to a completely different name/conversation. I used to go back to the main list to see if I mis-tapped, but the conversation it went to wasn't even close.
I've now gone to Handcent because of the irritation, but I'm wondering if it was only me that saw this?
i have the first problem too... very frustrating but i like the stock sms application because its so simple... tried chomp sms and handset 2 months ago and went back to stock app because i couldnt search in greek to add a contact (i dont know if it has been fixed)...
non rooted desire with froyo
yep, got these problems too, however I'm not on stock froyo, NeoPhyTe 5.0. I have also noticed another problem, whenevery I'm scrolling through the widget, sometimes all messages seem to be from one contact, even though they're not! weird, but then I let it reload and all seems fine
Hello everyone, long time lurker, first time poster. I would have put this in the AOKP thread but i need 10 posts to do that, so here's my first.
I recently put AOKP B34 on my phone and am very much enjoying it. After putting all my app data back on, I switched the android default keyboard to Swiftkey 3 since i've been using it since inception.
Everything has been smooth except today i mistyped a word and pushed it to get the selector. When i tried to move the selector to the word i was trying to fix, the curser blinks to the beginning and end of the word 5-6 times, then disappears. I uninstalled and re-installed it to no avail.
Anyone else having this issue? Should i downgrade swiftkey to 2? I can't get away from swiftkey, it has over a year of data that makes typing a cinch.
Thanks -

Hey - not sure if this is the right place to put this as I had the same issues with the Swiftkey app on my Galaxy s2. The problem I have is intermittent.
If i go into my messaging, or email app or WhatsApp - the keyboard appears as normal however when typing on it - nothing appears at all in the text field. I have to quit to homescreen 2 or 3 times and then go back into messaging and start typing for anything to appear.
Also sometimes what happens is that the keyboard will appear and will type as normal however the top line above the keyboard which contains the predictive words won;t appear - again the resolution is to quit the messaging app that i'm in and return to it. Really frustrating at times - esp when I can't type a message!
Does anyone else have this problem? I've updated to the latest swiftkey.
I'm running stock ROM however i've rooted the handset but the problem was happening before rooting too.
Any suggestions would be welcome - apart from that i'm loving the handset.
Not sure if it's just my luck, but one thing I've noticed is when typing in a login field it clears randomly. Using stock keyboard and CleanRom currently. Happens in stock as well. Only thing that I can find to get around is getting my email added to the dictionary prediction field and swiping it in. Is it just me? Basically I type out s-h-a-m-p-o-o *bam, cleared*. Sometimes I get through a couple more letters, sometimes I don't. It's a bit frustrating.
Any one else or any ideas?
Hi chaps
I've had my note 2 for nearly 3 years so it's getting on a bit. I've got Android Revolution HD v31 on it, supposed to be one of the most stable roms I think?
Sometimes I get a problem where the keyboard shows up like normal, and when I type it gives the haptic feedback and the app acts like you're typing, but nothing actually enters into the textbox. When I get this problem it can be quite persistent, and it happens in all apps. Chrome/whatsapp/messenger, you name it. I've experienced this with Swiftkey, but also the stock samsung keyboard. Restarting fixes it too but just waiting a few minutes and coming back or force closing all apps and trying again usually works too.
This is really really irritating (probably happens ~20% of the time I go to use the keyboard) - As soon as I get some time I'm going to flash the original samsung firmware again and start afresh but I don't have ODIN setup on this laptop anymore and I don't currently have the time. Any short term solutions or the fastest way to get back to stock would be ideal. Cheers!
