Issues with Swype after recent Sprint update - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Has anyone noticed any issues with Swype since the Jelly Bean update? I've noticed that if I'm in a text or IM, Swype will completely delay and not allow me to type at all. Suddenly the keyboard will restart, popping up show a small bubble for "English", and then allowing me to use it again.

I haven't had any issues using rooted stock. Have you tried clearing the data?

Mine just started doing the same thing after a reboot, but I'm using Swype beta. After the initial lag in opening it for the first msg after a reboot it works fine.

No, I haven't tried to clear the data, but just did. I'll let you know if I experience any further issues.

Anybody else experiencing this bug?

Randomly when I go to send a text message, the letters I type don't show up. I have to close the messaging app fully and relaunch it and everything is fine.
I was rooted, with franco kernel and a bunch of mods/themes/apps installed. Right now I restored to stock ICS. Re-rooted, flashed aokp milestone 4 and haven't downloaded any apps and I just experienced the issue again.
Also, I am using stock keyboard.
Any ideas?

I believe this is a general issue with ICS, I have the same exact problem sometimes (1/~30 times) no matter what kernel/rom combo I'm using.
Definitely have never seen this before and i text like mad. But i also use handcent from day 1 so it might be the stock text app.
This happened to me once in a market app but hasn't occurred in the messaging app

It had the same thing happen to me quite often back on my HTC Legend on CM7 with Handcent, but never so far on my new Gnex. I liked the stock messaging app and even gave up on Handcent.

I can also confirm this happening very rarely. aokp/franco

Have definitely seen this more than a few times. I put it down to Swiftkey X compatibly issues though...

I think it also happens in the Market for me too. I dont really remember though. I do see it rarely in my messaging app. Although its very rare it does get annoying.

Thats the thing, I had swype installed and thought it was that. Like I said just did a reset and fresh install of everything. Cant be any third party apps.
Not me personally, but a friend who's on complete stock ICS has complained of this happening every so often. I've never seen it on mine.

So it's still happening with the Stock Keyboard? Interesting...Well, all we can wait for is a fix from the big G. I would have no idea where to start looking for problems with this sort of thing!
Yep have had this problem every morning for about the past week. I need to restart the phone to fix it.
I am rooted on stock 4.0.2 and normally use Swype however it happens on other keyboards too

Swype problem

Does anyone else have a problem with Swype? I have a constant problem with it. I uninstall and reinstall fresh and then it just stops working whenever I receive a message. I'm on aokp b28 and have tried a few rooms and this keeps on happening does anyone have an idea? Nothing comes up at all when I try and swype either no blue box bouncing around the keyboard or anything. Its like the screen is dead lol. Then I switch to the android keyboard and it works fine please help

Check your PM
Sounds to me like the one you are using has run out of time. Grab the newest one grab the website. Beta.Swype.com I think.

I'm using the first beta of the ICS compatible version on stock non-rooted yakjuux 4.0.1 and do not have any Swype issues.
I use go keyboard and it has eagle integrated. Give that a shot it's free on the market.

No Swype issues here on the latest beta with stock 4.0.2.

I've never even heard of it, I thought you meant Skype!
how did you guys get the official swype beta with higher resolution? i downloaded the installer from swype email and it installed but the resolution is the same making the keyboard tiny. the installer downloaded version 3.26.92.38303.
Using latest Swype without problems.
Could your problem be because your custom ROM reports different resolution?

im using aopk but have it set to the default 320dpi
its set to default dpi. I'm going to try another rom to see if it helps

i think i figured out why the swype keyboard is small for me, it was the navigation bar or lack of it. when i set the nav bar back swype installed fine and looked normal but when got rid of it again swype keyboard went back to the smaller size. anyone have the official swype working without the nav bar?

I run it without nav bar, in tablet mode at 192dpi. I did have to install at 320 though.

My Swype has always worked just fine for me except that it lags big time. If I send a text and hit the home button the messaging app will close immediately but the Swype keyboard will lag and stay up on the home screen for a second. It drives me absolutely crazy because this phone is usually very smooth for me except for Swype. Does this happen to everyone else or am I just missing a setting that could fix this?

I flashed the latest CM9 nightly to give it a try and I have to say that all the lag issues I was having with swype are completely gone. I dont know if it is from the 4.04 update or AOKP just lags with swype but it runs so much smoother in CM9.

[Q] Swype keyboard not loading after ICS update

Updated to ICS through Kies, running stock rooted and using default sms (I know, that's my first problem ).
My problem is I'm having to tap the field three or four times to pull up the Swype keyboard..
Didn't see any info on this posted previously so i wanted to see if i was alone on this. Aside from this issue, I'm running pretty smoothly, no lag, no force closures, no random reboots, just finicky Swype..

Have you tired another keyboard?

Hmmm looks like its not exclusive to Swype, messaging app lags pulling up any keyboard.
I'd gladly switch to handcent, I've just gotten accustomed to being able to pull up my messages from the lockscreen.

Sms disappearing

Randomly while sending texts or receiving them, my texts randomly disappear or auto hide when I open the app. Other times you can see the messages for a split second then they will disappear saying "your message inbox is empty".
There are also times when I will be in a conversation Window and after replying to a message the message content will disappear and when I back out there will be no messages there either.
Anyone know what the hell is going on? I've restored, deleted cache including dalvik and even installed a new rom twice. The only reason I rooted was to fix this issue.

I'm having the same thing happen to me and the only way to fix it is restart my phone

At least I known in not the only one now. This restarting my phone crap gets old fast. Plus restarting once doesn't always fix the issue.
I know others have had this problem. Please come forward!

This is a bump. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
Seriously, can't i get someone who knows these phones good to post on here? I am really getting tired of having to restart my phone whenever i send a text message...it's getting old FAST...

I am currently running Odexed blue by Team Vennum. I only flashed this rom and rooted because i lost all ability to copy/paste AND this started happening. I was "putting up with" not being able to copy/paste, but once this happened a few times on stock, it was the last straw.

Do you use the stock messaging app or a 3rd party one?
stock messaging app. although it was no different when i used handcent
I didn't see this in your OP, but did you try to clear data, and cache from Messaging app?
Yes I have

Messaging Issue

So when I'm sending a text, sometimes the cursor will keep moving to the front of a text and not continuing and I have no way to fix this. Other times, it starts erasing everything I wrote. Anyone else experiencing this? If so, any non root related solution?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 2
Did you check to mske sure there is no moister on the phone? Or that your hands are not touching the screen?
Try rebooting and or wiping the cache on the app

Same thing happens to me
thought it was just me hitting the wrong thing, but happens all the time...
I've seen this happen multiple times on all 3 devices that my family has
Yeah i don't know why. I've checked it all, tried two different messaging and keyboard apps and did a factory reset. No luck. It's really hindering
Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 2
I have this problem too at times. Not enough to piss me off. I have heard people having success with GO SMS Pro. Might bork your MMS though.
Happens to me as well, i start typing then all of a sudden im at the beginning of the text still typing. I thought it was maybe a bug with Swiftkey or maybe i was accidently touching the screen but it guess not.
Tried it on another 3 og's
Same issue
Yea I have the same issue and I thought it was the stock LG keyboard. So I downloaded the android 4.2 keyboard and I'm still having the same issue. I'll deal with it for now because the 4.2 keyboard is legit and it only happens once in a while.

I called Sprint, I'm taking it in and will probably get it replaced since not everyone has it. Hopefully an update fixes this or there's a rom that does

It is NOT your hardware. This is a software bug in the messaging app. I discussed it HERE already. It's not the keyboard. I've tested multiple keyboard and multiple messaging apps. The problem resolves with a different messaging app. I've used GO SMS and now I'm using chompSMS.
This bug annoys the hell out of me and is the only reason I'm checking the forums every single night for an AOSP ROM to flash. I'm sure this will be resolved with an update to JB, but who knows when that's coming.
Try GO SMS, chompSMS, Handcent or any of the other Messaging apps in the market and this won't happen to you. Do not freeze your stock messaging app or MMS won't work.
This is a known issue at work. Our LG rep said we should have a fix out very soon. It is not a hardware issue and replacing it will do nothing.
