So sometimes I will be typing and my phone decides it wants to start deleting everything I had just typed out. It will basically be like if you held down the delete button.
I have to hit the delete button to make it stop. Almost as if the delete button had gotten stuck or something.
Not that big of a deal, just sort of a pain.
Anyone else experience this?

Same thing happens when I type text. If it is longer than one text long and you move the cursor it just places it in random spots and starts duplicating words.
I really wish they would have fixed that bug with the update.

This is why one of the first things I do is uninstall the LG keyboard lol. Swype or Swiftkey are much better.

It isn't the keyboard. It is a deeper issue. And it isn't just the messaging app. If you type on a comment box from the browser it will do it too. I am using Swype. I will agree the LG keyboard is less than ideal. I think it is a problem with the Launcher launcher/UI and how things are copied, pasted, and text is selected. It is annoying as heck though. The one thing you do a lot of on a smartphone is type.
I also ran into an issue today while playing a game. The phone kind of seized up. I couldn't exit. I turn the screen off and back on. The phone just was black. When it came back on the home screen was about 20% bigger than the screen. Kind of like world 4 on SM3. Big! I had to reboot the phone. The game shouldn't have been to intensive. It was "Vector".
Other than that the phone rocks. Still haven't had a phone yet without problems so I can't really throw rocks. I am happy with the JB update.
I got a bug that never happened.

I use to get that back button bug on stock v9, all u do is slide ur finger off the back button instead of tapping the backspace everything gets deleted, and it stays deleting until u press back again. It mightve been intentional at one point or another..
I haven't experienced any of the mentioned bugs yet but I do have an issue when deleting words one letter at a time. It doesn't always happen but when it does it replaces the letter directly before the one I've just deleted with an "a". I think its only in certain text fields. When it does happen it will do it repeatedly. I'll have to delete the entire word and retype it.

My wifi is set to be on during sleep.
Ok so about 8 hours so far, no sleep of death yet. Though I haven't tried leaving it idle for more than 2 hours..
I unboxed, booted, updated both updates to 3.2.1, charged to full. Then rooted. Played a bit, currently have wifi set as it was default "sleep when screen off" though I most likely will be changing that to never sleep when I'm travelling.
On a side note..I used to use whatsapp to text with my wife for free when I'm out of the country. But our one year is up and can't really justify paying twice for it for the amount we use it. Is there an alternative to whatsapp that doesn't slaughter battery life? I was going to go with kik messenger but it was causing massive drain in my testing..just running in the background. Also tried IMSY and I think its garbage.
Would love others opinions were also looking to video chat if we can since I now have a ffc. But she will be on the PC. Are skype and tango the best choices?
Wish there was an all in one app that could text/call/video call over wifi with android users as well as pc...does it exist?

This is a screen issue. My phone was having the same problems - I thought it was only on ICS builds but I restored to GB and it continued to do it. I took it in to Sprint and they replaced the screen and I haven't had a problem since.
#fe16bug - when a bookmark widget is applied, if you clear RAM it also removes the widget
#fe16bug - notification light does not pulsate while charging
#fe16bug - if you hit snooze on the stock alarm app, alarm will not go back off
#fe16bug - when using a voice search app such as the preinstalled "Voice Talk", the voice prompt will be cut off early.
#FE14 When using 3g on the browser or any app that uses date (ie. Ebay app, XDA, facebook) the menu button is getting phanton hits. The menu screen for the app just keeps opening and closing. It makes the phone unusable sometimes as it is so constant. The phone also vibrates as if you hit the button.
This has appeared in multiple version and I haven't tested it yet on FE16.
Fe14, fe10, fe07
FE07 and 10 under my normal use consumed 3% to 4% of the battery per hour. Which is equal/slightly better than the stock GB. FE14 consumes 8% to 9% per hours of the battery doing the same things. Flashed both the No-Data, and the Full reset, and the figures are the same. I am back to FE10, will hold off on FE16 until I get more information.

Excessive Battery Drain - Yikes!!! I have uninstalled all my apps, and it is still occurring. Any other ideas to figure out what might be causing this?
Constant 3G data movement - When wi-fi is off, my phone is constantly pushing 3g data up and down....non-stop!
Excessive Phone Heat - My phone is running like a furnace.
Now, I think the last three are probably connected in some way.

It has to be a ICS function that is causing the excessive battery drain.

The one I would really like to solve is the buttons not working, as there will be lots of battery related threads as more and more people upgrade.

The malfunctioning buttons have been happening to some of us on every ROM, whether it's Gingerbread or ICS. It happens to mine on stock GB or stock I'VE.
Just so you know, you can tap the volume Roche to wake up the buttons. You don't have to cycle the screen. Tap the volume button, wait second or so and you will see the capacitive buttons blink once... That means they've reset. Sometimes you have to do it twice.

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.

What are things you've noticed so far in the alpha/beta builds of Android 4.3?
As of 8/10,
- (Cosmetic) I like the addition to the LTE signal. On cm10.2, the 4G icon has been replaced by "LTE". (Does not apply to SlimRom.)
- Device appears to be much, much smoother and consistent.
- AOSP keyboard no longer opens a window to save a word to the dictionary. It just does it once you hit save. (This one is a big plus for me.)
- LTE, while speeds haven't necessarily matched my Touchwiz experience, I can safely state that LTE, even with slower speeds than Touchwiz is loading pictures/videos a lot faster. It's much more noticeable how LTE connectivity has improved when going to a 4.3 rom on this device.
- Required to enable root via developer settings prior to using any application that requires root access. (This is a security feature but for someone that flashes ROMs on nearly a daily basis, it can become a bit tedious since it's just an extra step.)
Find anything new? Share your findings here.

Things are loading faster on LTE even with slower speeds? Interesting! Is your ping lower or something? I need to try a 4.3 ROM tonight.

After two hours and 36 minutes of screen time, I'm at 89%. Been on 4G LTE the entire time.
Edit: I do have a 3000 mAh battery, though!
Battery has been great on slim it's also noticeably faster than 4.2 ... Camera is buggy as !-!311, that's really the only thing wrong with it though... My friend did just send me a file to flash to fix the camera, haven't flashed it yet so idk if it'll work or not

Check pm
Really digging the aosp implementation of dialer completion. It's spot on! CM10.2 feels noticeable quicker than CM10.1. That's just from my p.o.v. though.
Hey bthorne did the zip work? If it did can you pm me?

It didn't
4.3 is running pretty smooth. Had it running about a week and really only issues are the damn camera... but that's not too big of a deal. I rarely use it anyway.

It's fidgety, but it will work. Clear data in titbu. Select folder, force stop, restart. Soon enough it'll pop up

Is camera still buggy? what exactly is buggy about it? I havent tried an AOSP rom in like 6-8 months because first time I flased one my sd card got corrupt. I believe it is formatted correctly to where IT wont happen now and thinking about finally making the switch since touchwiz development has kind of slowed down recently and im starting to get bored. Main thing keeping me on touchwiz was the camera. I take a lot of pictures. Are there any other issues that would keep me from using an AOSP ROM as a daily driver? Bluetooth issues,random reboots,freezes ect...
I never had the luck of running a 4.3 build perfectly. Phone ended up crashing and getting stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S3 boot screen.
Latest carbon runs quite fine 8-29 nightly. However, I noticed Bluetooth doesn't appear in the toggles nor can you enable torch in the power widget. Anyone know a work around to fix this?
