I reported a few weeks ago about my keyboard being an arsehole, it's happening to me two or three times a day, and I will have to reset my phone etc. etc. to fix it. I get nervous while writing messages, as I just have a feeling it's going to happen, it makes me want to not text.
I <3 this phone, and I <3 Android. I don't want another phone, I love the Xperia Play.
Anyone got any ideas?
Have a look, I took a video of it. It basically registers other touches on the screen while texting that I just didn't make...

As you can see it also happens when I just HOLD the screen, not even tapping.
It usually happens with . -> ALT and BKSP -> Z

You think that there's a hardware fault? I unlocked the bootloader, if I relock it, they won't know the difference and it'll be covered under warranty, right?
Maybe its just the keyboard.apk ? Try another keyboard app and see if it doesnt help...

Wow that would be so annoying...I use swype so I'm not experiencing this problem...try a different keyboard.

Try a different keyboard before you try a warranty claim.
Look for HTC IME Gingerbread on these forums, it much better than stock too.
I am having the same issue, and I USE SWYPE.
It seems to happen when my fingers are really warm, usually when I've been on the laptop for a while.
Also, when I come out of the bath, and dry off, just after, the texting just goes insane and keeps beeping at me and pressing other buttons instead. It is so frustrating.
What's strange is that when I turn it into qwerty landscape.. it doesn't do it as much. Still does occasionally, but generally will fix my issue.
I doubt it is a hardware fault. Maybe it's my screen protector being odd.

I've tried pretty much every keyboard out there that i have heard of. from better keyboard to swype.
I came across another called FlexT9 the other day and bought it. Its by far the best i think. very quick, responsive and accurate. supports gestures and you have the swype funcion aswell (which i think is better than the official swype keyboard )
check it out: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nuance.flext9.input
Maybe an idear to do a factory reset throug clockwork mod and then a fresh start from the unrooted .145 tft on, after that the rom you want to install.
I also had this about a week ago when i was using the Gp2xperia. but now not anymore since i started over. Am running CM7 at the moment

Hey guys,
Just curious what your thoughts were on changing the ROM from the original one on the phone to Epic, (whatever the newest one is I think it's 2.5 somebody correct me if it isn't). So I guess if you've done this what are the most noticable changes and is it worth the time it takes to do this.
-Jim
I'm really enjoying the epic 2.5 rom. I liked the phone stock but I found it to hang up quite a bit, blur seemed a little power hungry, and there were some apps installed that I did NOT want that constantly bugged me (city ID!). I switched to epic and my phone seems much much more responsive and my batter life seems mildly improved, by about roughly 10%. I'll more than likely continue to use epic until the bootloader gets cracked and we get something like cyanogen on the D2
I also use epic 2.5 and it sometimes randomly reboots, but otherwise its amazing. Battery life is great!
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
what's your battery life like? because that's my main problem with my d2 since i text quite frequently and that seems to drain the battery like no other.
so you guys say go for it? also how do you back your contacts up when you change the roms?

If you are looking for a rom with little to no Blur left, try installing Motoboy's R2D2 SuperClean. It doesn't have all the Star Wars stuff and you are left with a solid system. I experienced a few bugs that were show stoppers on Epic 2.5. Those being the slide to unlock reboots, and the calendar not allowing me to add events. Matt has posted a fix for the calendar, but as of yet nothing stops the unlock reboots. Personally I find both of the roms to be better than what was shipped with the device. Ultimately which rom to flash should be your decision not someone else's.

Read the instructions carefully, then read them again. This is a slightly tougher install than Epic.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796908
Well I'm a new Droid 2 user. I had the original D1 and just got the D2 about a week ago. Epic was the first rom I downloaded and I like it a lot it reminds me of my D1 roms I had installed. It's pretty fast and hardly lags. I had a few problems at first. My phone rebooted randomly about twice and I'm not sure if this was a problem for everyone or if I just had a corrupt file installed, but whenever I would use titanium backup my messaging app stopped working. It really pissed me off because my messages still worked, but I couldn't see them. It kept force closing, but eventually it started to work. I'm enjoying this rom so far.
EDIT: I'm having the lock reboot problem now, it has happened maybe four or 5 times and it has been getting annoying lol. I haven't really looked for a fix, but I will be soon.
The lock screen reboots are a known bug in Epic 2.5 but I'm back with epic after tweaking R2D2 too much and I haven't had a problem after installing lock screen on/off widget and setting it off.

Slide to unlock from screen off. If lockscreen is disabled it doesn't do the reboots.

Maybe you could disable the slide lock screen and put a pattern lock on. I don't know if the widget will disable the pattern or the pattern will make a reboot but it's worth a shot.

So for me even with all keyboards off and device keyboard settings off i still get some missing keys.
I believe I may have found the source to the problem though, as this problem seems to still happen even without any software keyboards. It must be in the os or driver, my issues are always with the keys that when long pressed bring up a menu choice of softkeys.
Mostly s,e, and l i notice it the most with. i.e. long press e, youll get; è é ê ë ę ě ē. If i try mupltiple eeeeeeeee presses i get this popup occosanionally as if i am long pressing and you can clearly see it misses some of the presses for e, also try mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm or ppppppppppppppppp i never have the lag issues with these as when long pressed they just repeat with not pause and popup.
I think the lag (loss of letters) is due to the OS interjection monitoring the length of keypress to determine if this prompt should be shown.
What would be great is if a developer could determine what controls this feature and strip it from the rom/kernel/driver whatever it is. I will never use this as it is only for non-english charachters anyway.
Hopefully the right person reads this and looks into it, as i feel this could be the source of our issue.

Oh wow weirdest thing... keyboard lag was still there for me when I first flashed the phone. But about 20 minutes ago I dropped my phone while in the shower (first time :O) and the keyboard got a little wet. Now my buttons don't feel "sticky" and I can type a million times faster without missing any letters. I'm so happy haha.

Soo ever since friday my tab has been going wild..
Itll just randomly become unresponsive and then reboot.
It started once i hooked it up to charge on a ferry... which makes me worry. however, i do have chrome on it. I figured after it came out of beta itd be fine, and its run fairly well up until recently.
Im stock rooted, running latest ota. Locked boot loader... though I tried to unlock before, but since im a c4okct there was a time where my sn wasnt recorded, and that's when I attempted to unlock.
Now, im worried that my tab is possibly fried, and im stuck without warrenty.
Does anyone have any ideas either way?

i don't get it...how has no review shown this at all?
when you go home, the phone lags out for like 2 seconds. you can't switch screens..it's like it's unresponsive for a second or two before it starts chugging along. this wasn't shown in any video at all.
try it with keyboard up or without..you'll notice it with keyboard, because when you hit home, it takes like 3-4 seconds for the keyboard to dropdown and go away..that's bc it's like hung up when you're going home.
anyone else notice this? other than that, this phone rocks.
*edit*
the issue is def launcher redraw. when it's redrawing, it doesn't allow you to switch between homescreens or open folders, and it's a delayed response if you attempt to. hopefully our devs can do a modded launcher that won't redraw, or we can get some kinda bulletproof launcher script going.
VIDEOS:
of course when i went to film it, i couldn't get it to do it. took forever, but i finally got something. it isn't the 100% frozen issue, but it shows it getting caught mid-home screen because it's trying to redraw the launcher.

**NOTIFICATION DROPDOWN LAG SOLVED**
and here's the super annoying notification dropdown lag on the lockscreen (this happens when youre on the launcher and you unlock..if you're in a settings menu and your phone locks, and then you hit power and do the dropdown on your lockscreen, it WON'T lag like this..it will only lag if the last place you were was the launcher. wtf is up with this stupid launcher? lol)
turns out that you CAN NOT set a homescreen wallpaper to NON SCROLL, or else you get this annoying lag. as long as you set a wallpaper to SCROLL, then it won't lag at all. makes absolutely NO sense, but yeah. just tested.

A phone with these specs shouldn't lag. I sure hope the bootloader gets unlocked so aosp can be installed. That made a huge difference on the s3. I personally haven't gotten the phone yet. I am trying out a nexus 4 on t-mobile. Unfortunately, I get no signal in my house. So t-mobile is a no go. I was hoping this could be my next Verizon phone, because my gnex lags terribly.

yup! so it's a combo of swiftkey and i'm thinking the launcher perhaps. i now wait a second before i start moving around in the launcher, or else there will be much lag and delay.

I have always loved SwiftKey and exclusively use it, but I don't want to get rid of this phone just because of it. You have any other keyboard suggestions?
