First keyboard entry repeats - Droid Pro General

Hey,
I get this issue at times where when I select a text input box on the droid pro and start using my physical keyboard, the first letter I press gets doubled e.g. "ddoubled" This happens fairly often so I was wondering if anyone of you are experiencing the same thing.

I've been having that problem as well...seems like it's just been a recent occurrence because I don't remember it happening this much previously...

happening to me as well_

Same here. Didn't notice it when I first got the phone. Seems like a recent issue. I haven't had the issue for a day or two. Odd

Although I've experienced other issues this one is new to me and I've yet to had the pleasure of encounter it. Hope it stays that way!
Did any of you try a factory reset or an SBF reload?

Same here. Very annoying. It also sometimes misses the first letter on mine. Especially when using the instant search from a home screen.

i would do a factory reset, and make sure you have the current OTA software

Freezing in Landscape?

I was in the AT&T store earlier today hoping I could do a side by side comparison of the Captivate and the Aria but, of course, AT&T didnt have out the Captivate yet so I just spent time with the Aria.
I loved it. Very smooth and quick with everything. Comfortable keyboard for the size that it is.
One thing I noticed before I was done experimenting with the keyboard and texting is that when I was typing a message landscape, the words weren't showing up, but appeared when I turned to portrait...and then disappeared again when turned landscape.
It only happened at the end of the 15 or 20 mins I was playing with it...but is this a problem others are having with the phone or was the in-store phone just being defective?
That is a problem that i also use to experience, if i text in landscape mode at a fast pace it caused the app to force close. When it auto restarted i couldn't see the text i was typing in landscape mode but when switched to portrait mode the text would appear. I have since stopped texting in landscape mode since texting in portrait mode is just as fast as long as you hit the first letter of the word correctly.
I have not had the issue since flashing the liberated B003 rom though. Also I do not know if it was something running in the background causing this to crash before i flashed but for me the problem no longer exist.
But thats just one of the few problems you will discover with this phone

Thanks! Hopefully going to pick up a Captivate as long as it performs like I hope. Otherwise I will be joining all of you here in the Aria forums!
Kind of a dead thread but I'm bringing it back to ask...
How many of you have also experienced this problem with the phone? Is it a large majority?

Thank you. Hope some more people respond so that I can see how many people experience this problem so I can try to decide between this and the captivate
I spoke too soon, the issue is happening again, seems to happen after typing long texts.
I get the error "the application Touch Input (process com.htc.android.htcime) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." [Force close]
do you use the stock keyboard as opposed to swype, swiftkey, or the droidx?
stock keyboard.
That might be the silence then. You might want to see if the problem persists with a different keyboard. For landscape I suggest the droidx multitouch.

I too have the same issue - many times. Stock ROM, non rooted.
I'm going to mosey on over here for the Nexus forum to vouch this issue for my sister. She just got the Aria about 2 weeks ago and her keyboard freezes on her in landscape mode constantly. If she goes into Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/ and selects the keyboard then chooses 'Clear Data' it seems to bring it back up without her having to restart her phone. Another option I've found while scouring the internet has been that if you disable predictive text on the keyboard (Under Settings/Language and Keyboard/Touch Input/Text Input/Prediction) it seems to fix the issue... but you of course lose predictive text. Which, if you ask me, is a huge issue given the cramped keyboard on the Aria. I can't confirm if removing the predictive text option works yet or not, but if she lets me know, I'll be sure to let you folks know.
[edit]I should probably state that shes on Stock AT&T Rom with non-root and she plans to stay that way... unless I convince her to hand the phone to me for a few hours)[/edit]
I should also probably state that this issue does not occur using the swiftkey keyboard from the market. One could argue just using that instead, but I personally don't like swiftkey and frankly the default keyboard should work! Lol.
So far turning off predictive text has fixed it. My sister has gone all day without a freeze up. And it was occurring almost every time she texted.
Day 3 and her keyboard still hasn't froze since she turned off predictive text. I think the may be a solution. But now HTC needs to release a fix for this lol. Hopefully the aria gets a 2.2 update and this is resolved. Wishful thinking I guess.

[Q] DX Touch Screen Stops Responding

The touch screen on my DX stops responding several times a day. It very random, it can be during a text, answering a call, etc. If I lock and unlock the screen, its back to normal. Its running the OTA 2.3.340 and is rooted, but this started prior to rooting. The "tech" at VZW said to do a factory reset but I'd rather not have to re-setup everything. Anyone else have this problem and have you found a fix? Any help appreciated. Thanks.
I have this exact same problem
Are you using a rom? It happens to me every once in a while, maybe every other day or so, sometimes twice in a day. I thought it might be the rom I'm using. I'm on liberty but everything else works fine for me so I was just waiting it out till they get version 1.5 released.
Beamed from my robot X using the XDA app
No other ROM, it is stock other than rooting and removing a few bloatware packages. It did this before removing any of that though.
My phone just started doing this recently as well. I think a program running in the background might be at fault. I'm still trying to find out which one

It happens to me while trying to use lock screen... I'm on apex and it always happened while using apex and on liberty until i switched to the rotary lock slide

Same issue here.I think this is a documented bug, and I haven't seen anyone post a fix for it anywhere

Atrix Randomly Selecting

Hey everyone,
My Atrix has been with more frequently losing control and randomly selecting items particularly across top portion of the phone. At times it completely ignores my touch and will repeatedly pinch and zoom in an erratic fashion. Any thoughts or similar experiences? Suggestion? Factory wipe? Root with. Ginger?

This might be app related. Does this only happen in one app?
For me, it occurred when using an emulator (snes). i've had certain virtual buttons and the home/menu button on the bottom of the phone not respond to touch. The only fix i found when it occurs is hit the power button and wake the phone back up (ie. sleep cycle). once that's done, it works great again.
Perhaps because this became more of a relevant issue after I installed a 64 emulator which worked beautifully but I began to notice the issues. I am going to delete the emulator, run a scan, reboot. If that doesn't work I'm going to cry to Motorola for a new Atrix with a decent battery... grumble...

Atrix Randomly activating rear touchpad
I am having the same issue, but it is not app related. It will do it in the app drawer, text messaging, homescreen, and browser. Sometimes it gets stuck on the lock-screen, and I have to pull the battery. I've upgraded to 2.3.4 CherryBlur, but it was also occuring on 1.8.3.
It also happens if I open the multitouch testing app. If I put 2 fingers on the bottom, it shows one finger on the top.

Keyboard random freeze Cm7 nightly

Has anyone had a problem with the keyboard locking up. For example I would be texting and all of the sudden a key that I need to press is not responding(and only a couple random key will freeze never everything), then I will delete all the way(it just happened on the "a") past the beginning of the word and it will work again. This is the only one thing that I don't like about this rom, if this will get fixed then I will be extremely happy. Has anyone encountered this problem, is there a fix?
Thanks ahead of time

anyeone experiencing keyboard going to one hand mode while typing?

I just noticed that when I type in sms, that soeties the keyboard just switches to one handed mode while typing... anyone else experiencing the same? I'm using tmo us galaxy but figured if this is a bug, it would affect all models of note 2.....
anyone experiencing this as well?
I was also experiencing the issue and had become very annoyed by it. It would sporadically happened but would never happen if I tried to recreate the issue.
The problem went away when I changed to the SwiftKey keyboard.

I have the same problem -- seems to be happening more and more often (and I don't want to use Swiftkey). No idea what causes it, must be some combination of keystrokes, but it is VERY annoying.
Would love someone to solve this one.
The keyboard switches to one hanged vote if you pinch it, it's possible that it's registering some of your keystrokes as a pinch
