Can you show me some good apps to install? i'll try this tip.
But it's strange! this bug begins only on whatsapp and isn't alway he happens, just sometimes...
But i'll try to install an antivirus.
Thanks for the help!

What happens with your keyboard?
I've got similar problem with whatsapp, but I've got cyanogenmod 12 and Sony Z1. Sometimes keyboard in whatsapp types several letters (or one letter several times) when I want to type one letter one time. I've made small research - it seems, that problem is not in keyboard by itself, but in touchscreen, when whatsapp chat window is open. When i touch the touchscreen, touchscreen recognizes several touches almost in one dot (but not exactly in one dot, cause sometimes keyboard types also some letters, that are near).

Hi! is something like that it happens with me, but only in Whatsapp. Isn't in touchscreen, i think, maybe a bug from cyanogenmod 13. Can be fixed!

Keyboard disappearance - Generic or Titan only?

Is it just Titan or Is it just WP over all?
Is it OS-associated or Is it App-associated?
I am inclined to believe keyboard disappearing few times while writing is more associated to random apps and only in Titan.
I haven't found other device users talking about such experience but few apps e.g. WhatsApp - has it more frequent!
How I wish with all these fantastic facilities, the developers for so called big apps used more knowledge to make better apps! They make such rubbish apps even after having far more functionalities on offer from the OS.

Does that suggest that it's OS related? Does it disappear when using only certain apps?
When I am emailing or using anything in ME tile - it never disappears. It often disappears while I type things within an app. It is very very rare when using messaging or IE.
It's a WP7 bug. It's due to the background agents. There are certain apps that do something in the background and make the keyboard disappear. Go to Settings > applications > background tasks and disable Background Agents on each application. Obviously if that app has to run in the background its functionality will be reduced but if you are having a lot of trouble with the keyboard disappearing this is the only fix for now.
This video shows a background task activating and the keyboard being hidden as a result:
I only have this issue(sometimes) when posting in forums. Aside from that,it works fine and doesn't disappear. ( such typing a text or browsing internet.....)
I have the same thing happen to me. I guess it's just a Titan bug.
The only two problems that really bugged me on my Titan were the keyboard disappearing and Espn goals not playing videos. They have both now started to work very well after my last update.
Kinda solution
Greetings,
I only had this problem like 2 times. And its most certainly because of the background apps running. I am a casual mobile user, and does not have many apps running at the same time. So am not experiencing this problem.
Possible solution = use single app at one time, and before using another app, quit it by using the back button on the phone.
I know it completely makes the multitasking ability a waste, but I don't use more than one app at a time, except for listening to music.
Try out this for a couple of days, and see if you still have the disappearing keyboard.

I think I've even narrowed down your issue here!
It only happens when you have certain buggy apps that launch and un-launch your keyboards. Developers need to be more professional when making apps that use your internet.
example - I've tested it with Board express app as well as twitter and facebook apps. I think when you start writing something in these apps e.g. a forum post, a tweet or a reply to any message, it launches your keyboard. After a bit of inactivity it tries to un-launch it so that you could use the full screen estate. However that was meant to be a useful function by MS. So say you were writing a long post, then wanted to do something else while multi-tasking or something on your PC and the app stays there doing nothing, it stops using the keyboard. Less resources, less memory intense etc - the coool features stuff.
However, when these apps go in background, after a while they become dormant anyway. So if they run in background while you use for emailing, text or something involving your keyboard it keeps crazily unlaunching it! It doesn't understand that you don't want the keyboard for their app but for something else!
It doesn't happen that often thankfully! Only happened 3 times in nearly 2 months for me. But when that does happen, if you go to multitasking view and get rid of those apps that do this, you won't have the issue. Also a restart simply stops it for a long long time.
This is a WP bug where the background tasks are putting the keyboard into the foreground. Only way to stop it from happening is to disable all background agents from running in Settings.
I didn't have this happen with the HTC surround, but that was pr-mango. I din't have it happen with Dell Venue Pro, but that has a physical keyboard so maybe I didn't notice. Regardless, in my experience it's just Titan

keyboard issues

Hello,
I have noticed that sometimes is becomes impossible to use the keyboard to type things.
For example if I try to type a comment on Facebook my keys become unresponsive and when they do work I would get duplicated words when I press the space key.
Also when browsing on amazon I would type something but it doesn't show on the screen.
While writing this message using the swipe function with Google keyboard the words are not showing immediately, there seems to be some kind of lag.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I am rooted, but not running anything else to change the performance of the phone.
I did freeze some apps
What could this be??
Yes, this is close related to the temporary dead touch spots in the general thread. Its most likely some kind of software bug.

I quite frequently notice the text I'm typing stops showing up on the screen in the browser (like what you described with amazon). A quick-fix for me is to zoom in or out or turn the screen sideways and back, that usually gets it going again.
I'm sure it's just a bug that will get worked out with future updates.

Issue with auto punctuation in Chrome on Android

So I have this issue on three of my phones. Sometimes when I double tap the space bar to have it insert a period then a space it will instead remove the last letter of the word, insert a space then a period. Not sure what is causing it or how to fix it. Doesn't seem to be only the words I used in the video and for some reason it doesn't seem to do it every time. Only seems to happen when I am using Chrome and filling in a text box. I am using the Google Keyboard from Google Play on my Z2 and Z Ultra (not shown in the video) and the AOSP keyboard in Cyanogenmod on the OnePlus One.
You can see what I mean in the video: http://youtu.be/IFqFBZE-hsw
No one else have this issue? It's driving me nuts.

It seems like a autocorrect bug with the keyboard your using
Does it happen with other keyboards, and does it happen with a difference in auto correct or auto period with keyboards?
I haven't used another keyboard. The issue is with auto punctuation, haven't seen it do it with auto correction.
Sent from my OnePlus One
Yes i have noticed this too.
Seems to be only in Chrome (in webforms etc) and as far as I can tell only on a Oneplus One.
A very quick double tab results sooner in a delete of the last letter before the period than if you double tab slower. So it is definately looks like a bug.
Try emailing both google and sony
This could be a Framework bug on sonys half or it could be a google bug with chrome
Could be a bug on both sides to do with text handling
Just experienced this also on my LG GPAD 8.3 running CM11
Okay so it isn't just me. Three different devices people have experienced this one. Gotta be on Google's side since it is happening on the different devices.

Multiple letter problem

I have problem on my z2 which is when I wrote some message, it's show multiple letter even when I just pressing one letter on my keyboard. For example, let say I touch letter 'H' on my keyboard, then it will come out with double letter like 'Hh'. The problem occurred after a week I upgrade lollipop to marsmallow using pre-rooted package. I have downgraded to lollipop from marshmallow using flashtool but still no luck and the problem still occurs. I also test my screen using multi-touch test app from play store and indicate that there are like 2 finger hit the screen in certain area.
I have attached the screenshot from that multitouch test application. Please help me with this problem. Sorry for my bad English.
I had this problem too some time a year ago or so.
It was solved by
- Changing keyboard (to Google keyboard for example)
- Using desktop-version of websites in chrome for example
...if I remember correctly.
I think it's a bug in Xperia keyboards auto correct feature, maybe disabling it could help too.
If i remember correct, this problem also appeared more in Opera than in Chrome....

My smartphone keyboard doesn't work PLZ help!

recently I bought doogee x5 max smartphone from china and I am satisfied with everything except for ONE THING.
the keyboard. even if I type in normal speed. it eats up my words therefore appears like this generally(when typing "xdadeveloper", it is shown on the screen like "xddvlopr") I didnt have same issue with my previous phones (in total 4)
and among all keys , some specific keys work worse than others like P or T
I tried everything I could do for instance, updated using OTA, manually flash stock firmware via needrom, had factory reset 3 times, installed almost every keyboard applications on google play turned off every animation setting in developer option.
its not like a lag I guess since if its not about the letter I type being shown say 2 seconds later, but it just omits the some of the letter in a word.
any advice will be greatly appreciated. I know this is cheap phone so I can not expect too much but this annoys me as HEXX because this is keyboard, used everyday, every time I do the task with my device.
Thank you!
ps) my smartphone has android 6.0 marshmallow, mediatek mtk6580, 1gb ram and 8gb rom, I never tried rootfor this phone. because I bought this just a week ago and I admit I am not gadget prick with plentiful knowledge on machines.
Hmm. This is an odd issue if it is affecting different keyboard apps as well...
I'm wondering if it is a problem with the touch sensitivity? Do you have the same issue whether the phone is upright or on it's side? With different keyboard apps, do the same letters not appear or is it random? Does it make any difference on the other keyboard apps if you resize the keyboard or not (only some support this)?

touch itself works just fine when I tap on anything such as web surfing, playing games and checking my emails etc.. and whether upright or sideview, its the same sadly and I dont mean some letters does not completely work but its lame and untyped 3 or 4 times out of 10 , high enough to not have a normal daily use. but yeah, whatever keyboard app I use, same letter goes wrong. and resizing the keyboard layout makes no difference.
I wish there is magic pills to cure this disease. like performance booster app or something if you can recommend me.
