Its strange, when typing i end up missing out letters in words. The thing is i have watched the keys when typing and every one of them glows blue like it should, but yet there are letters missing.
Anyone else get this?

Yes happens to me. I noticed if I kind of drag the letter it won't register. For example if you hold down a letter till its blue, then drag away and let go, it wont register for me. If I lift directly upwards, it registers the letter every time.

I have problems where it double types a letter too. But it's usually with different keyboards than stock

Does anyone have problems with the android keyboard dissapearing? ?? And the only way to get it back is by restarting the phone?

I have several issues with the keyboard including the one you mentioned.
If I plug it in to charge it kind if messes with the calibration and when I'm tying it seems like the phone thinks I'm touching all other parts of the screen (like hitting the backspace will type P's in the text field)
I've also experienced something with the new m.Facebook where ill tap on text field and it'll open up the keyboard but it'll hide again. I have to try to open it sometimes more than 7 or 8 times before it stays open.
I'm thinking of unrooting it and taking it to best buy (I got the protection for it) I've just been lazy about it lol.

My keyboard will sometimes partly disappear and become unresponsive. It gets really weird when I switch the phone back and forth from landscape. The only way to fix it for me is to restart the phone.

If I use a third party charger from china to charge my Nexus S, the touchscreen goes crazy too lol. The original charger doesn't do that
The worse offense of the keyboard is still the double-letter glitch with the first letter of words (for "eexample"). Still rampant since 2.3.3.
If y'all want to add your recent experiences to the keyboard glitch report I filed with Google, please do: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=14755
I have the same issue. The keyboard will disappear and they will just be empty space where it was. If you remember where the buttons are u can still type its there u just can't see it (great, right! ) . I am running stock 2.3.3 and I have done a factory reset for that and other issues but it comes back. I have to turn the phone off and back on to resolve.... until it comes back at least. Happens at least once a week sometimes a lot more sometimes less. Either way, very annoying.
So, no, it's not just you.

If you are one of few people with a nexus 4 where the very left centimeter of the screen (top to bottom) does not respond, you need to RMA. At first it wasn't a big deal to me, but after using swype from the playstore, the letter Q was unusable. I thought it was just a screen alignment issue, but it is an issue with the phone itself. It can be shown using pointer touches in developer options. This is a picture of how far I was able to go to the left edge before response quit. This video shows what the issue is compared to a regular nexus 4.

Here is what i'm talking about
That's awful and would drive me nuts! I know with PA I lose a few pixels because of Pie. But that can be turned off. Yours would make some things impossible.... Like typing words with q in

Yeah I chose to RMA, which is actually a valid reason to RMA.. **cough cough**

Just tested with a multi touch yesterday and there are spots that register multiple fingers instead of just one or two.

I have this problem too, single tap = multi taps when I am typing eg. Nexxxus 7, very annoying.
Software problem or hardware??
Here's a thread full of people who are having the same issue.

See PIC to follow.
When the Google keyboard first appears on the screen, the K key has a black mark on it, but disappears whenever the key is pressed. This is the only keyboard that does this. I have tried a number of others and can't seem to replicate this!

Only seems to happen when the keyboard starts in lower case mode, I.e Google now.

Something weird is going on with my Nexus 4, I woke up this morning and all my icon locations are back to front! What I mean is up the top where the symbols on the right hand side of the screen where battery, reception and Wifi symbols usually are, they're now on the left side and the 3 buttons on the bottom are inverted and back to front. I'll upload a couple of screen shots to help explain.
As you can see also when I go into settings everything is opposite too.
Even scrolling through my apps I have got to swipe from left to right!
Anyone know how to fix this problem?

Have u tried simply rebooting it/
Also, is ur N4 rooted?
Yes I have tried rebooting it several times and no it's not rooted. Also, the most annoying thing with this problem I forgot to mention is the 3 buttons on the bottom are not responsive either. I've turned on "show touches" in developer settings and it seems that the very bottom of the screen is not registering touches. If I want to use the buttons I have to flip screen to landscape and move the buttons to the top of the screen.

Maybe it's an accessibility option? Check in Settings>Accessibility.
If found any seem to solve your issue, the most sure way to solve it is to flash a factory image. Check out efrants guide.
