I've recently rooted my phone (retaining the stock rom and kernel). Last night, it started to "not work", meaning, whenever I input a key using the keyboard, it doesn't show. I can dial using the "Phone" though, so it's just the keyboard and not some problem in the touch screen.
Also, I noticed that whenever I restart my phone, I can still type in using the keyboard. However, after leaving it for a few minutes, the problem starts to kick in again.
Is there a way to check which app is responsible for this so I can uninstall it?
Are there known apps that does this?
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Has anyone encountered problems with the dialer?
I can punch in a phone # and press the green button to dial, but it doesn't dial immediately. There seems to be a lag sometimes of up to 30-60 seconds.
Also, sometimes I cannot hang up a call. I press the disconnect button and it just doesn't do anything.
phone app/dialer issue
hello,
i think that the same happened to me. the problem that I am having concerns the phone app on my razr. very, very often when I try dialing somebody, after hitting the the dial button, the screen where is shown a larger photo of the person that I am calling appears then it flashes and disappears (saying <call time 00:00>, something like when the call is terminated) then it reappears by itself after 2 or 3 seconds and the call continues smoothly. this is a very annoying problem, not being able to have control of my calls.
i don`n know what could have started this problem because everything was working fine, and still is apart from this issue. i`m not a skillful android user but i managed to root my phone (making all the necessary backups), then using some specific apps for rooted phones (like titanium, motomizer etc.) and every thing was OK. Lately i`ve installed a navigation program for android to my phone (iGO) but i`m not sure if by doing this, the problem appeared.
to solve this, i`ve tried everything: uninstalling all the suspected apps, factory reset, rolling back my system to a previous backup, updating my system version from 651.73.30.XXXXX.en.EU to 651.167.19.XXXXX.en.EU, cleaning the cache/dalvik cache. the problem still persists...
if you guys have any idea what could have caused this please guide me through a solution.
thanks!
I am using android 4.0.3 on my S2 and have 2 annoying problems.
1. When I go to contacts and search for mar…. my contacts stops working. After 10 seconds it pops up “contacts stops working” press ok, and after that it starts working again. For now only these 3 letters cause my contacts to stop working. Once in a while it also causes my twlauncher to crash after the message.
2. While typing something it constantly shows me I have to select my keyboard. Samsung standard or Google talk. Seems I cannot make a standard choice and that is stops asking me…
Any suggestion welcome!
If it's stock, try wiping, if custom try again or try something else

Hey guys.
This hasn't happen just only on the SIII, it's happened on SII and my Note.
Handcent randomly crashes, and sometimes I will go to type a message, and the keyboard will show up but when I press a key, nothing shows in the typing box thing, really weird and annoying cause I need to reboot it to fix it.
Anyone know why this happens to me on every phone I've had, stock and custom ROM's?
My corporate exchange activesync policy requires my phone to have a PIN. I am used to having "no lockscreen", but without a lockscreen, the phone gives me no opportunity to enter the PIN. So you are just locked there with the time and weather. Fortunately you can hold down the power button to restart. So now I have a lockscreen, at least until I install a custom ROM (which typically disables the PIN policy).
I am unlocked and rooted. Not sure if this is a "feature" of the original ROM or if I installed an app that messed it up.
My only previous Android was the One X+, but it had a custom ROM which disabled the PIN requirement, so I don't know if it behaved this way or not.
An update--this problem started occurring even with a lock-screen. It would not show the keypad to enter the PIN.
I was using Smart Keyboard Pro. Switched back to HTC Sense Input and the problem seems to have gone away.

it's the other keyboard i had the same problem with Swype before i purchased via Google Play. i too reverted to the HTC Sense keyboard and the disappearing key-pad issue went away. the newest paid version of Swype doesn't have the same issue.
Hi all.. I just got the padfone x a few days ago and I am noticing very odd behavior with the iHeartRadio app and was wondering if anyone else has noticed the same thing. When I first installed IHR it worked just fine. I was able to use it in both phone and tablet mode without a problem. Now whenever I try launching the app I get an error that says that the app has been disabled and does not work in phone mode. I went so far as to actually completely reset my phone and start over from scratch. That fixed it for a day and now it is doing it again. I made sure that the app was not active for dynamic display and it is not. In fact it doesn't even show up under the app list there. It does show up under my settings menu under installed apps. I deleted the cache and data for the app and it didn't change anything. I installed the iHeartRadio Auto app to see if that would work and it works just fine both ways. If I dock my phone to the tablet then the regular iheartradio app opens just fine.
Has anyone else encountered this error? I did try to reboot the phone, restore it, remove the app, and then tried installing it again. That was the worst thing I could do as it wouldn't even install again from the play store. I got an error saying it was not able to be used from phone mode then got a -10 install error and it wouldn't install. Very frustrating.
Right now it is installed but can only be used in tablet mode. Thoughts?? Thanks ?

Same issue, my first time opening the app with the phone this happened. Very frustrating.
Have you found a solution since then? Auto is better than nothing, besides I only listen with headphones.
Im going to see what happens when I message them.
I ended up getting frustrated and exchanged the phone for something else. Definitely a problem with Android on that specific model since no other phone since demonstrated the same behavior. Good luck!
