Lately my keyboard has had a mind of it own. Every time I type something I lose touch control and my phone starts to use the swype like feature on its own. I might sound crazy but this is really annoying, any ideas on how to fix it?

My keyboard seems to jump to the beginning of the line sometimes while I'm typing (like pressing the "home" button on a PC). I'm going to try swapping keyboards for a few days and see if that helps. After that, maybe a cache wipe is in order...after that, I'll keep an eye out for an LG rep haha!
Will post results.

When i open my keyboard it turns off my screen.
This has been like this for a month or longer. It is nor ROM related or kernel related as I've flashed a ton if roms and kennels in the last month. Hardware is fine as the keyboard lights up and keys work, screen works gone worth keyboard closed... It's like 'software' doesn't know keyboard is open..... Well that's nor true because it lights up....
Any ideas?

Mine turns off, but you have some deep sleep issues affecting your phone not wanting to gain enuff processor speed to get out of deep sleep? Its a possibility

Sounds like a bad video ribbon cable.

Could be your phone has fleas from flashing all those kennels.
Haha flees.... I've tried setting gov to performance then power down, nothing. I setup Tasker to post a notification when keyboard opens and it does post so the system knows the keyboard is open. I also tried using Tasker to set display on time out to 99 min.... Etc.. Still stays off. Heck just opening it shuts off screen. When screen is off opening it flicks on screen.....

Is there a ROM that basically turns our phone into a better g nexus with better hardware? I just want to disable my capacitive buttons and hard key and just have the 3 onscreen home, back and multitask buttons... or is it something that might be available in the future?

Oh for real? Alright well I am in the ****ing desert for the next 40 days but as soon as my data resets at the end of the month I'll have to give your ROM a shot. Thanks. Sorry if I seemed lazy I just don't have the resources to download and try all the roms and I wasn't seeing screens.

I love this keyboard because of the auto correct feature and the amount of options you can choose. For some reason while I'm typing sometimes it will do double letters and it's at random. Sometimes it will look like this "HHey what aree you doing?" Am I the only one with this issue. Using it on my completely stock AT&T galaxy s3.

I haven't experienced that issue but it will ocasionally say I hit a letter than I didnt

It's my favourite keyboard, I use it every day in the past 10 months or so, didn't have this problem either. (Used it on atrix, vivid and hox). Maybe the screen is a little too sensitive?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
There is no way of adjusting the sensitivity of the screen from my understanding. I just am curious if I'm the only one to have this problem or if someone else has experienced it at all doing the same thing. I don't know I'll try not typing so light and see if that makes a difference. If someone has had this problem and they fixed it please let me know how.

Has anyone seen if maybe it's the speed at which you're typing. If I type slow its not so bad. If I start typing faster it starts putting the double letters. Just trying to figure this out. Thanks for the information in advance.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I have the same issue. I type pretty fast and it always has that double letter issue and even sometimes has double words even though I only enter it once. I decided to stick with the stock ics keyboard from the play store which works great without any typos with my quick typing

Who is the developer of the keyboard you're using?

I definitely have this issue, and am using 4.6.00.147 version of the app (the most recent I believe) as I don't see any update in the Play Store. I love this keyboard, but this part of it is very frustrating. So much to the point that I went back to the stock AOSP keyboard, but I want this to be fixed.
EDITED: I've reached out to the developer to see if there is any idea on what's causing/how to fix. I will post any updates if I get any that are constructive.
I always scroll from the side of the screen and now with JB, it zooms. I for one pinch to zoom... I don't need it where I scroll. Does anyone know where or how to kill this?
Thanks!

Scroll from the middle. I'm not seeing anything in settings.

I too had this issue, thought it was a defect. Pretty annoying. Would love to disable it
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
I agree, Its the same on the phone and the S3. Doesn't matter the browser. Real annoying...
BUMP.
Any devs know what's up?
yes I hate the zoom function there Would be nice to disable it

I actually like it just wish I could control it. ie make it only one side or the other not both sides. its handy for one handed operation but yes like you I scroll from the SIDE (so I can keep reading) and now I can't. Grrr
Happen to me as well.. Glad to see it happening to others.. When it happened to me I thought I was going crazy

I am having the same issue, so I downloaded the google chrome browser because I was so annoyed and getting headaches..... Also NOT HAPPY with the stock Keyboard not having the mic (voice input) button on the keyboard, you have to press three different buttons to get to it, SO ANNOYING, so I downloaded the Jellybean Keyboard from the App Store (which I do not understand why this phone didnt come with a Jelly Bean Keyboard..
Nm I lied

i love using it now, soo addicting swiping with a finger and being able to go to the spacebar
Thank this dude for posting this I never would've liked for that link if it wasn't posted this keyboard is awesome

Amazing. Can't wait for the official release, bug free with hopefully some sort of swipe to delete (swipe the backspace button?).
I use SwiftKey 3 before this and the swipe left for a word delete was amazing.
Am I the only person that thinks it's horrible? I use SwiftKey and love it but flow just isn't there yet. It only types what I want half the time and I'm constantly going back and fixing errors. I'm much faster and accurate with the normal SwiftKey.

Well it is in beta. I wrote this sentence with it. just takes some getting used to.

I find that the case with most of the "flow" type keyboards. For some reason, tapping just works better for me. The idea of having to type only one key at a time (as opposed to using 2 fingers/thumbs) is beyond me and slows me down!

I'm using this keyboard cuz for me it's like a free version of SwiftKey with that amazing prediction. The swiping works best on the words you get lazy on or you know are easy to swipe. I'd drive myself crazy if I tried swiping a whole paragraph. This keyboard is really accurate tho and the feature in the settings that shows where you press the keys is cool and it imports ur words from other sources so it knows you well right off the bat and with the cool default themes this keyboard is a keeper

As far as these trace type keyboards go, I prefer Swype. Although I understand this is still in beta. But I stay with the normal SwiftKey because I end up spending more time going back and correcting errors than it saves me.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
I didn't get into swype type keyboards until I tried the 4.2 nexus keyboard. I thought it was decent but without the auto correcting and spacing of swiftkey, I went back to it.
Same thing with the OG stock keyboard. I absolutely love this though. I keep swiftkey but I've been messing with flow more and more.
It's a beta so it has it's glitches (swyping 5 words then it goes blank once I move on to the 6th one) but when usually it works great.
I've typed out long text messages faster than I ever imagined with it. I'll be getting the official apk once it's released.
