Keyboard bug for texting - HTC Rezound

I'm experiencing a bug in the messaging app. All my keyboards won't input anything at first.I have you back out or select something else then go back to text box.
Anyone else experiencing this?any solutions?
Thanks in advance!

If you tap in the textbox the keyboard will pop up.

Not sure if that's sarcasm or not, but duh.
It's trying to "type in the box" is the problem. Keyboard is up, no text goes in. Buttons depress, trace line shows, but no text in text box.

Can't get trace to work with HTC keyboard

Other than enabling trace in settings what do I have to do?
Want to try it since swype on this phone is a buggy POS.

IMHO, It's worse than the swype.

I think you need to have word prediction enabled for trace to work. Give that a try.

Didn't work. No combo of settings I have tried have worked. Don't know what to do...

The trace only works in a few apps.

As quoted from goodandevo.com
"Trace will only work in prediction-enabled text fields like email, messages, and notes. Search fields and URL bars do not support prediction, so you'll need to tap the individual keys in these areas."
A little ot, but is there a way to update swype? I was using it but it stopped tracing my finger so now I'm on HTC trace, which is basically just for text and email

Nope, not till root. There's a swype rep/employee on the IRC evo 3d channel and he's confirmed this already.
Darn. I'll just have to practice with the touch keyboard

Is anyone else having keyboard issues after the update?

Hello everyone! I upgraded to ICS today, and noticed that the notification to chose a keyboard keeps popping up. It also says that Google Voice is chosen when I've disabled it. Can anyone help me with this? I really appreciate it!

Hi,
After the ics update you will have to press the imput method to change the keyboards you want to use. That's normal ;-)
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Thank you for replying! I chose the Android keyboard, and the prompt to choose a keyboard still pops up. I tried restarting and rebooting my phone and nothing is making this notification go away. As you can see in the pic I attached, the only option it will check off when I touch it is Google Voice. It's making me nuts.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
It's always there.
So the notification to choose a keyboard will always pop up when I go to type?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
We all have that same screen with google voice so don't drive yourself to nuts over that. Its the default keyboard that needs to be set which it looks like you did so I'm not sure why it keeps prompting you to choose.
Edit: I notice you have google voice unchecked. Recheck it, set default keyboard to whatever you want and report back
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Okay, I did what you suggested and have included screen caps. For some reason the notification to choose the keyboard isn't going away. I can ignore it if it's not a fixable problem, I'm just a little OCD about my notifications being cleared.

Reflash the ROM bud
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Can you please tell me how to do that?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
It will always be up there with a keyboard open.
Cm9 has an option to turn off that notification, otherwise it'll be there.
If you wanna reflash...Just do exactly what you did in the first place...
I don't think he flashed a ROM before if he got the ota . There is a tutorial stickied in the general page as to going about flashing and rooting

One thing I miss from my iPhone... Is there an android alternative?

When I got a message or notification while my screen was off it would light up the screen automatically to show you the notification on the lock screen. Is there an android alternative?

go sms works perfectly as you described, and its my choice, but see what works best for you.

Honestly I looked into a few of those recommendations but I chose Tasker with the plug in Secure Settings.
Now I can choose to wake up my screen on any notification for a defined amount of time before it turns off automatically.
Tasker is a very powerful system app. So if you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it. It's a paid app ($6.95) but very worth it. If your skeptical go to the developer's website for a trial.

Tasker is pretty awesome. Amazing things can be done with that app.
Not gonna lie, I wasn't expecting you to say that Tasker is your solution.
Agreed with slix, go sms works great

Stock does not show you the message contents on a pop up on the screen.
Widgetlocker + gosms widget. This is my set up.

Well the OP didn't word it that way. If that's the case, then people have made plenty of suggestions.

True. I made the leap because my wife had an iPhone and knew the behavior the OP was referring to.

True, I've had multiple iPhones as well. I actually HATED that feature and I still don't like it on my note. It should come with a damn LED notification like 99% of every android phone.

Go into your sms app and go to settings/general and make sure the view is set to conversation.

What ROM are you on. You should be able to go to Sense Messaging App and go to settings/general and Turn on Conversation Mode. This is or a Sense ROM.
I'm running the stock Rom but if I can't change I will probably change it.

Long press the setting button on the keyboard and there should be an option to "dock" it
