I don't have the problem when using chrome or the XDA app on my N7.
Are you highlighting text?
No just typing as normal with the stock keyboard as far as I know stock settings to except for spell checking and predicted text.

Its not the apps it defo to do with the keypad. Say, after typing this and pressing the back button 2 or 3 times it will delete all the text except the last word typed. Weird aint it.

I'm not sure what to say. Someone else on android central reporting this happening to them also, except they were a newbie user and never gave us a result after they wiped. Mentioned they were stock and happened right out of the box.
IT could possibly be some very random bug.
I also have the same problem with the spell checker. It was there before the Jelly Bean update, but afterwards, it 'seems' to be about 10x worse! Doesn't seem to matter what app I'm in, if the predictive spell checker comes up and I try to correct something I wrote previously, it will wipe out my entire entered 'sentence' except for the currently highlighted word. Same goes for when I try to backspace a word. It typically leaves the selected word and deletes the word or sentence before that.

I swear the longer I have had swype the more incorrect words o seem to come up with. LIKE JUST THERE! That was supposed to be "I" not "o." I suppose it's time to go back to the intro video and see what I am doing wrong...
I feel the exact same way.. its probably just because we have gotten confident with it and arent being as precise in our traces.
Everytime you type an incorrect word, it adds it to the dictionary. Double tap the word to highlight it and hit the swype key. It deletes it! I was frustrated too .

I had DL09 and had this problem and it bothered me, so I switched down to DJ05 cause it had the same fixes and more compatiable with everything, and now I'm having the same problem. It just started happening like 2 days ago. Is there a fix for this?
Mine does it too. It didn't do it until I installed the original SMS app so the little puzzle piece would work.
I've been noticing the same thing but it only happens in the browser searching.

Mine does it in the messaging, market, and browser app
I have this problem too. I've also had many problems with my dictionary. I'll add words and they will be there for a bit then disappear. The most frustrating thing I deal with is words that I have accidentally typed in, delete, and than they will magically appear again a day or so later. The specific word that bothers me is "ti"
I have deleted the word numerous times, cleared data/cache numerous times and installed clean roms/kernels to no avail. I even tried a totally new keyboard and it seemed like there was a problem with that dictionary too. I'm at a loss and gave up.

Try going to manage Applications and then clearing the data fit Swype.

I have the same problem. The data wipe did not resolve the issue, but clearing the data for gmail seems to have fixed the sync issues that I was having so thanks for the tip. The only fix that I have seen work for the caps issue is to install a different keyboard. I like camalot's as they seem more responsive than stock.
Also, big thanks to all the devs and good people on this forum who have made this phone awesome. This is my first smartphone and I would have been lost without the kind folks here.
I flashed superclean, 1230 nonvoodoo, and put the latest swype beta in...works great!

Same issue: all caps starting a message in aosp messaging app.. It seems like a bug that is being reported in the swype beta forums..
Be nice to have it fixed.. Oh! - yeah.... beta
I have the same problem, on DL09 using Handcent, so it's not app-specific.
yeah I have this issue too and I'm using the latest beta. It is not app specific. Seems to occur randomly.

What Ive noticed is ths happens when the word picker pops up for the first word and I continue to swype without making a choice. Maybe that is the cause? Program would see the new word as the first when started, as the first isn't completely entered yet.

This is exactly the reason, or at least a way to reproduce 100% of the time. OEM DI01 did not have the problem, OEM DL09 does. Dont' know more than that.
I posted a bug on the Swype forum 2 weeks ago.
http://forum.swype.com/showthread.php?2458-Bug-on-VZ-DL09-w-Swype-capitalizes-second-word-after-first-word-auto-pick
This is something i have only noticed since 4.2.2, stock unrooted...
Sometimes in chrome the keyboard shows over the text box you might be typing into on a forum, facebook etc which means you cant see what your typing!

yea i noticed this too, sometimes u can drag the page down without exiting the keyboard but since 4.2.2 thats very rarely the case
Hi,
yesterday, I've received an update which I've installed now:
AP,CP: I9505XXUAME2
CSC: I9505VFGAMDC
Since then, the stock email app is acting very weird. When writing text, as soon as you use any punctuation, exclamation mark, question mark... , the cursor goes crazy and jumps around, making weird corrections to text that has been previously written. Even just copy/pasting an URL into empty email and trying to enter new line will have weird, unusable result.
This bug is easy to repeat:
- open stock e-mail app (not gmail!)
- start writing a new email
- write a sentence in a language of yours (I've tried English, as well as my native language that's supported on the phone)
- as soon as you enter any of the following: . ! ? and press enter (new line), the just written sentence will get split in two and some random editing will be applied as well
Anyone else experienced such behavior? I'm on stock firmware,not rooted, stock keyboard.
Not keen to factory reset just yet, as it involves a looooot of re-setting everything
Thanks!

Very similar bug appears on mine too.
It renders this phone unusable for business purposed, Exchange client is totally broken.
I'm unable to respond to work emails!
What a disappointment, how could it pass QA????!!!

Installing Swype keyboard from the Google play solved this problem! It's some kind of bug in SwiftKey, stock keyboard is based on SwiftKey. There's incompatibility between stock keyboard and stock email client.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium
At first I thought it was swiftkey causing the issues so then went back to stock and it did the same. The explanation above saying that stock is based on swiftkey may explain why.
I've since installed AquaMail as a stopgap....swiftkey and stock keyboard work as intended with this.
And, to be honest, even though aqua mail was going to be a temp solution, I'm quite, no, very much liking it and will probably continue to use it as my main client.

To wrap it up. There are two solutions:
1. change your keyboard to Swype or anything EXCEPT stock keyboard and SwiftKey
2. change your email client without need to change your keyboard (!!!)
It's an obvious bug that should be fixed in future software releases.
There is a third alternative
3. Disable the auto-correction option on the standard keyboard. The suggestion will stay on, so you can touch the corrected (or predicted) word to change what you typed, but it will not be inserted automatically when you touch only the space bar. Which is not too great a penalty

Same issue for me....is this what Samsung meant when it said the phone is a Life Companion - it will give you **** problems same as life does?
Hey all - running stock, rooted on the latest MJ7 update and it seems since this update the stock Sammy keyboard refuses to remember any custom words I input. For example: go to my banking app and enter my user ID in the required field ... I opt to remember the my user ID but once I back out of the app the word is forgotten. If I stay in the app the word will be remembered, but once I exit the apps the words are gone. It's like this for every app! I've tried everything to get it to remember words but nothing works! It was working fine before the MJ7 update ... I've cleared app data and cache, Uninstalled Xposed and nothing seems to get it working ... switched to Swype and it works fine there so it seems to be isolated to the Sammy KB.
Anyone else seeing this with the stock keyboard?

Thanks for the suggestion, tried that as well but the words are still not remembered. It's very weird. Tried everything but a factory reset and I'd rather not go that route as this is the only issue I'm having. It's all good, I forgot how much I love SwiftKey and how awesome the predictions are

That's strange I was able to add the words "i'mma" and "ur" and they show up in the list of added words, did you make sure to press next and done after you typed the word you wanted to add? I will try to add screen shots in a minute

I have the same problem. It adds the word into my personal dictionary but doesn't add it when I type or swipe the word

Got the same problem here on my not rooted EU version (not branded). It's the only thing that I find really annoying on this phone, but I don't want to use another keyboard because of handwriting recognition and the number row. Can't believe that we're the only ones here who recognise this bug...?
Additionally I even don't have this personal dictionaries point in Settings. Sometimes e.g. after a bracket the double-tap for a full stop isn't working.
I'm on the Verizon variant and recently received an update that resolved my issues (as well as changed the keyboard theme to dark). Hopefully future updates will resolve it for others as well

Duh, who would have thought the solution would be so simple. Similar to the suggestion below, I just went to Samsung keyboard settings and used the "reset settings" option (its the last option). Didnt have to restart phone. Then tested various words, and amazingly seems to work fine.
I'm on 4.3 on Note 2.

You actually can add new words. all you have to do is go to SETTING / CONTROLS / LANGUAGE AND INPUT/ hit the gear next to SAMSUNG KEYBOARD/ tap on the words PREDICTIVE TEXT and then tap LEARN FROM MESSAGES. Once this is done, start a text message and then hit the white arrow that comes up. Your phone has now learned the word that you wanted it too.
well till now i have tried nearly everything and with no luck at all.. i just want to know what the hell happened?
what is the cause??? samsung isn't replying to my message
