if you are asking for some help in solving this mystery, it would help if you would explain what exactly you have on your setup.
is it stock?
did you flash a rom?
did you flash a mod?
are you using one of those useless task managers?
what launcher?
the more info YOU provide, the better people can help you out
Sorry I figured. I'm Using Galnet MIUI 1.11.9 I guess with zedomax kernel. It comes integrated with a launcher. My phone started going south real bad when I installed Siyah 2.2i Since then I restored to an older kernel. I'm thinking of starting over from scratch with a new rom.

Back on PC. Nothing?
The "launcher" that keeps crashing the phone says is "Activity launcher", it crashes and I can't do anything til it crashes and reboots i guess.
The Keyboard i think it is says: Android Keyboard (process com.google.android.inputmethod.lating) has stopped. Force close or report to MIUI
SwipeIT keyboard doesn't even open (the app does, but no keyboard)
Install another launcher for the mean time. At least it won't keep crashing while you try to figure it out.
It may end up being a rom specific issue. You'll want to check out the galnet miui forums and see if they can help.

Download it from the LauncherPro site (although you won't get updates from the market, you can also upgrade later from there manually):

It's an app just like everything else. The best way to do it (I think?) would be to go to manage applications, uninstall LauncherPro, long press home, open up your browser (make sure you have it on the menu before hand as well) to and get to the above page, download the apk, click install, THEN click home. If it asks what launcher, then just choose LauncherPro and make it your default.

I was having the same problem before the update too.
I had the same issue, i went to launcherpro.com and downloaded the .apk for the previous version and opened in astro. That brought me to the application manager, where i chose to uninstall launcherpro, then reinstalled from the .apk. I had to rearrange my homescreens and reactivate pro, but no more crashes. Hope that helps!
(Btw, i am running stock 1.1, autonootered)

I unistalled my prior version before installing the new update. only issue I have run into is not being able to log on to facebook viathe lp widget.
Don't know if it's a coincidence, but TV Guide stopped working after the update. Can't find a network connection and force closes.

Since I installed the previous release, the other apps that were crashing are now working. There was something seriously funky in the most recent update.
I had the same problems and uninstalled LP. Went with ADW launcher which I like a lot better.

Launcherpro just updated again, one of the reasons was force close issues with certain 2.1 devices....eg. Nook color.
I'll update to the newer version tonight and see if it fixed the problem. Glad to see they are on top of their game in fixing problems though

The new update did the trick for me. There were other apps that kept closing that are working now as well.
I installed Launcher Pro Plus on Das BAMF 1.3.2 and whenever i open up the phone/dialer the call history that normally displays behind the keypad is blank. If i select call history from the bottom, then switch back to the dialpad, the history will be displayed. Its a pain to have to switch back and forth every time i bring up the phone. This doesn't happen when using Sense as the default launcher. Anybody have any idea what causes this or how to fix it? Thanks for any help/ideas!
I am having this problem too, really irritating.
dbu over in the development forum posted this:
Note: there seems to be a little bug with all 3rd party launchers where if you you hit the phone button and the dialer pops up, the contact list is blank and the smart dial does not work. To remedy this long press phone, select a new application and restart Launcher Pro then add the phone back, you may also have to open up the dialer and try to dial a few numbers and delete them and the contacts should appear. Not really sure why this happens.
Going to give it a try and see how it goes.
Long press on the phone shortcut > Change Shortcut > Applications > Phone
I did it yesterday and it fixed it. Just change the icon back to what you want after and you should be all set. I haven't had an issue since I did this.
How's LP running for you? I was using LP paid, but after the last update, it runs like complete crap for me. (I'm on the BAMF ROM too).
Sense runs perfectly, but LP is laggy and FCs a lot. Makes my TBolt feel like my old G1, ugh.
I have been experiencing the same problem with Launcher Pro. Even stock my phone still did that. Like it was said above, type a number in and delete it and your recent calls will come up. I haven't installed a custom rom yet, I'm just running the stock root rom with the 1.4ghz kernal. It doesn't force close or run slow for me. I prefer it to sense.

Mine is a bit slow when I get texts and Handcent pops up. The screen unlocks, the window pops up, and it takes a while until the sms sound plays. I have been able to reply to the text and send it with time to spare before the sound plays. That's the only lag I've had really. I may try using the stock app and see if that clears it up.

Use the fix I posted earlier.
(Long press on the phone shortcut > Change Shortcut > Applications > Phone)
It worked for me.
The fix worked! LP has been running great (im using tesla coil 1.1 with drod's latest kernel).

I finally had to give up on LPP for now. Sucks too because I had my phone set up very nicely. I ended up with more issues using Handcent and LPP(with Das BAMF rom) and I tried GoSMS(hated it) and the stock app(also hated it).
I'll keep it loaded on my phone for now and see when it updates if anything changes.
I'm not using LP but handcent works fine for me.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I looked through the comments on the market for Handcent. Apparently there are a number of people experiencing the same issue I am regarding the lag. Maybe I'll uninstall it and reinstall it. If it's anything like a computer, it will work flawlessly after that.
My keyboard randomly stops working it let's me press buttons but nothing shows up I have to press the power button a few times till it works please help

I've had similar issues, but seemed to only occur when using a new input method or on reboot. I use swype and once I switched to the Evo swype apk, the problem stopped. Probably doesn't help your case, but I know you're not alone.
I know this may not really fix your problem but really just provide an alternative solution, you could use Swype. Swype is much faster (in my opinion), and you still have the option to type normally with it. You would have to download the beta from Swype's Website, it doesn't take too long to register for the beta.
I have had this problem too in the past. I'm just curious, do you use handcent? The only time I've really seen this happen for me is in handcent's popup windows, but I have no idea why it happens, and honestly, it doesn't happen often enough for me to want to try to figure it out. But I feel your pain, when it does happen, it's quite annoying :/
Happens to me all the time... I use Smart Keyboard Pro.
See my thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1132927
Wish I could figure this out. I type super fast and it's starting to get veryyy annoying.
Wow so does mine LOL I thought. I was crazy.

Ya i had major problems with this on the stock keyboard. I also had just general problems with lag sometimes in the stock messenger app, as well as receiving duplicates of text messages. I formatted the cache partition in cwr and used the gingerbread keyboard in the market and have since have had zero problems (so far lol).
Same Here!
I'm having similar issues. When I "wake" my TB up and try to go in to type a text message, email or any other thing that uses the keyboard, the keyboard shows up and allows me to type, but nothing shows up on the screen.
I've tried using the GB keyboard from the Market (which I REALLY like), but no matter what I try, I seem to have a problem. I thought it might be WidgetLocker interacting badly, but uninstalling that doesn't work. I thought it might be because I was using Go SMS Pro, but uninstalling that didn't work either. I went back to using the stock keyboard (which I really DON'T like), but to no avail. The only thing that DOES seem to work is to reboot the phone.
This is getting a little ridiculous! I don't want to have to reboot this phone every time the keyboard decides it doesn't want to work! Anyone have any advice?
Just FYI, I'm not rooted. I haven't gotten that far yet. The only thing I've done that isn't stock is to run Go Launcher as opposed to Sense. And this issue was happening when I was running Sense as well.
CyanogenMod 7.0.3
Market 3.0.27
I have not used it a few days and now it gets a more flashy gui. Then it kept crashing. I have to "Uninstall Updates" to go to the old gui and it seems to work. Manage Applications still show the same version number.
However, that's not the end of story. A few minutes later, it gets back to the new version and it keeps crashing again.
Does anyone have similar problem?
Thanks!
Go to device settings and set your language to english (even if its already that). This will fix it. Did for me anyway.

It did the trick.
I don't quite like the new one. There is no My Apps button and it's clear if it's checking for the updates.
Any way to keep the old one?

Why am I getting an infraction for this post?
Ok so I'm having this problem no matter what keyboard I use that whenever I edit a word in a message or note, etc, Android duplicate the word every time I hit the spacebar and it's driving me insane because it ruins my message and I can't stop it. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm using google keyboard at the moment but have the same issues on the stock keyboard, as well as swiftkey, which means its the OS. I'm rooted on Venom ROM, but had the same issues before I rooted. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Anyone?

I had the same issue using Perfect Keyboard from the Play Store, both on Stock Rom and on Viper Rom. Uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work, wipe data didn't work, even showed the issue right after a clean install (full wipe). Don't know the cause but I begrudgingly switched back to using HTC stock keyboard and no problems for over a month. I miss using the volume keys for moving the cursor, but I hated this issue even more...
Perhaps let the dev know and see if they can isolate the issue, otherwise use a different keyboard? Sorry can't help, but you're not the only one that's see the issue!
Good luck!

I had the issue even on the stock rom before root IIRC. I use google keyboard, but believe the issue was the same even using swiftkey. There has to be some bug in the OS that is causing this, but I've literally tried everything to no avail.
