I keep having trouble getting the Y key to register when I type "you", it comes out as "ou". Also happens when I type "the", it comes out as "he".
I have trouble reproducing it all the time, but it happens quite a lot. The keys work, but this happens when I am typing a word. Any ideas on what is going on?
My current theory is that I am hitting the T and H or Y and O keys too quickly in succession and the keyboard is reading the first keystroke as a miskey.

I have only just noticed this weird error with the screen of my phone. I have read of similar problems but I haven't seen anything the same as mine. I have a feeling that it is something to do with the keyboard. Some buttons don't work properly and the start menu constantly flickers. If the start menu stops flickering for a minute then when I press the center button the start menu pops back up, same thing happens if i press space on the keyboard. This happens in both portrait and landscape so its not the same as the screen alignment problem. I have uploaded a (dodgy) video to youtube if it helps anyone: http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=fva2ZJL5egY
Thanks in advance.
I now have a feeling the problem is with my keyboard. The o, l and p keys dont work unless i mash them really hard for 5 minutes and the delete key doesn't work sometimes. This is making me think that the start button might also be acting up. Anyone have any ideas? If I can't get this fixed by the weekend then I'll probably get an iphone.
My HD2 has an odd problem, when I'm typing an SMS message I get random button presses.
For example, I could tap the word "football" and end up with "foogfhdtbakhjll". This happens seemingly random times, and on occasions you can see the phone type random letters when you're not even touching the screen.
I haven't noticed this problem on anything but the SMS messaging screen (text input on Opera is fine), and when I see the issue, pressing the end call/power button to turn the screen off and on again sorts it but it'll come back at a later time.
Is it a hardware (digitiser/LCD) or software problem?
Just had it happen again, mainly when pressing the backspace key it presses V or B (or keys close to those) on the keyboard.
I've had this happen a few times on 1.66 roms and lower roms. So far *touch wood* this hasn't happened to me on 3.14 not that it is a major problem it just throws a little paddy you delete the mess and you set to go again. I usually have my device on 24/7 which probally ain't good for it could be a cause.
Thats a good point, mine is 1.43 and its on all the time too...
Try updating then dude i've not had it on 3.14 but only been using it about a week and been turning it off most nights.
I purchased a Logitech bluetooth keyboard for use with the Note 10.1. Initially I was excited, but that excitement turned to irritation when I realized that my typing experience would be constantly interrupted by the words "English(US)". After some trial and error, I quickly found out that it was cased by pressing the key combination Shift+Spacebar, which activates the Samsung Keyboard's language switcher. Apparently, I hit this combo every time I capitalize an "i" when typing quickly.
After some trial and error, I found a decent solution. I downloaded the 4.2 Google keyboard, and problem solved (Initially I tried a number of other virtual keyboards, but each of them didn't play well with the quick FN options of this keyboard, and I was searching for full functionality). This also removes the full word deletion feature of Sammy's keyboard, which begins deleting entire words when the backspace button is pressed for X-amount of seconds), which I find to be very annoying.
The only problem left happens when reconnecting my bluetooth keyboard, which causes TouchWiz to default back to Samsung Keyboard. Fortunately, the virtual keyboard can be switched back to Google's with just a couple taps.
Anyways, hope this helps.
I'm having some other intermittent random screen errors so I may just have bad screen, but has anyone else had their keyboard kind of stop taking swype input. It's hard to describe, but normally you rest your finger on the first letter of a word, then swype around, and you can see the blue line wherever you finger goes. Well randomly, but fairly often when I am inputting words it stops working, I put my finger down on a letter and nothing happens, slide it around and no blue line or input. Sometimes if I randomly tap any letter it starts working again, or if I lift my finger and try again, although sometimes it takes several tries.
Using stock keyboard i found that my typing was constantly getting words grouped together. Then I noticed that when I hit the space bar I always get the hepatic feedback but the cursor doesn't always move when spacebar is pressed. Sometimes I have to hit it 3-4 times. Anyone else have this problem.
I have the same problem, but I don't know a fix. I hate anything but stock keyboard. I refuse using another keyboard
even im facing the same issue!!!! lets hope a fix from google in feb update!!!but ive to press it twice and not 3-4 times
Huh, I've never had this problem. Perhaps try to reboot into safe mode to rule out rouge apps and see if the issue persists?
