Could this be an update or WTF ?
Anyone notice this?
I use predictive text all the time, but in Chrome search box I get no auto spacing while typing and using predictive text.
Any other time I use predict text it works fine.

I've noticed this too. Been annoying the hell out of me.
Chrome search format has changed and now when you type your typing in the address bar at top instead of a search box. Stupid updates.

Previously, when I would start to type the To: of an email, at the bottom of the screen there would be an entry with a match from my contacts - or at least I thought it was from my contacts. Recently I lost my email account and had to create a new one. Now the auto type does not work. Is it because of the new account? that the auto type really worked from previous email addresses entered in previous messages?
if you use a keyboard with predictive text then it doesn't work. If you're using the slide out keyboard it should work.
Does it work of the contacts list or previously sent emails?
in my experience, it should pull from your contacts...it's a bit buggy, to say the least...in the "message to:" field, you can press the "enter" button to select from your contact...i end up having to do that most of the time...
Did you install swype recently? I noticed it wouldn't pull up contacts when I installed swype, only when I backspaced one letter would the contacts be pulled up.
that may be it...ive had swype installed for quite sometime...
It is swype that has made the closest match selection stop working. Even though I am individually typing each letter (not swyping), the swype keyboard does not seem to allow it.
Hi!
I have this very annoying problem. Sometimes when I compose a new message, and I'm about to type in the name of the recipient, the letters and list just disappears after about 3 letters, and "deselects" the recipient window, so I have to touch it again to activate the keyboard.
Often when I write with the keyboard, my phone appears to kinda "forget" that I just typed in a letter when I follow up with the next letter to fast. This doesn't happen as long as I keep pressing the letter before typing the next one.
Anyone experience similar problems? Would've been awesome if there was some kind of fix to this...
Thanks in advance!

In stock web browser, when i type words in text field (where the website itself doesn't have custom auto-complete feature) there's this drop-down that gives me matching historical entries (for example when I typed "ba" it shows "banner", "banana", "balcony", etc. whatever I ever typed in that website before).
However, selecting one of the item in that drop-down does NOT replace my partial typing. Instead it appends my selection to the text field. For instance after I type "ba" and selected "banner", the text field becomes "babanner".
Has anybody come across this issue? I tried searching in XDA and even google for this but didn't find anything that's even close to this issue.

I'm having the same issue...its very annoying
Just saw this thread. I have the same issue as well, and it's so annoying..
Hi all,
Have had my phone for a week now, loving it!
One nagging thing tho... Wondering if anyone has had this issue or knows what's going on:
When I want to use the S-pen to write out an email message, I cannot. Unlike with any of the other text fields (To:, Subject, CC etc), the handwriting icon does not appear for the email message field no matter what I do.
Any feedback greatly appreciated.
Update:
I found out that I can simply change the keyboard input to "T" to enable handwriting. Works fine, however the input "style" is different than that of the normal S-Pen input.
Still find it strange the handwriting icon isn't showing up where I need it the most!

is the Direct Pen Input (under S-Pen Feature/Settings) enabled?

Yes it is.
In stock Email app, I can get the handwriting icon to show for all fields except for the message itself!
seems to be a bug. I rarely use the stock email app, yet the handwriting on it. XD
have you tried other 3rd party email apps?
When I started using my tablet a week ago the keyboard showed me an @ symbol in the bottom left and a .com symbol on the bottom right.
These have now disappeared. I found them very useful and helped input speed. While I can quickly get the @ by pressing sym the .com is now not available.
Did I change something in the settings? How do I get back the original keyboard?

These symbols are available when typing either on a text field that expects an Email address or a text field that expects a web address.
Try typing on the "To" text field in the Email or Gmail and you should see the @ symbol
Try typing on the address text field on either Chrome or Internet browser and you should see the .com
Thanks, I have noticed that I get the keyboard sometimes but not always. I guess this is controlled by the website you are on.
