'goo' appearing in text boxes - Desire General

About 80% of the time I type in a new text field, 'goo' will appear as soon as I start typing.
Anyone else getting this? Had the problem before I rooted, then it went and its come back again.
Sorry if this has been posted before.
Can't search on the xda app.

I seem to get this randomly as well but not 'goo', it's usually the start of something I have typed recently.
I guess you type google in a lot?

Not massively so. This has been the only word that has appeared with the problem. Never had the beginning of another word.

Just looked it's pretty obvious. The sub text describes your problem almost exactly.
Hint: it starts with "prevent"

Flashing pictures on FB

Anyone else suddenly experiencing this? Just started one day. I'm about to reset and see if it fixes anything.
What I'm experiencing is opening facebook and either getting a white screen for a long time, when I scroll and load a new page on news feed and then scroll back up it finally loads. But when pictures loaf they are just Grey unless I'm scrolling over them then the.picture flashes in and out. I've uninstalled updates and its the same... I've rebooted its the same.

I think it has to do with the last Facebook app. Right after I installed the last update, I've been having the same problems.
Its Facebook and their crappy app.

Thank God I'm not the only one. I thought I was going crazy. My wife's atrix isn't having this issue.

I have been having the same issue for about a week.
Please make sure you report it to Facebook (they cant fix it if they don't know its broken).
To report it:
In the Facebook app, hit the menu button on the phone, tap About, and then tap on the "Please submit bug reports by clicking here"
this opens a web browser where you can tap "Somethings not working"
On the next screen, scroll down to the bottom where you tab "report an issue" which expands the selection, and then you can tap "please let us know"
From there enter you bug report.
Thanks

Either that or there is an email link for the app in the Play store to submit issues. Or do both. The issue isn't present on my Xperia P only the ion. (can't test the Xperia S its getting the yellow tint issue fixed)
Even the mobile site is acting strange , who else is having problems it's not loading the pictures

mobile site works fine for me. sometimes the app works fine for me as well. i used to think facebook is being retarded again but seems like it's not facebook's fault this time.
I have the same problem.
I too have this issue, however... I have found a constant. When I open my Facebook app, and its loading the feed, that's when my pictures flash. If I scroll down to essentially load those next few pictures, and then back up, it stops. Every time.

Wonder why? Dont have this problem on my Xperia S
My flashing pictures issue seems to be getting a little better, doesn't do it right away now, will start flashing after I scroll down and more images have to load. I do not have auto update turned on and has not done an update for a while.
My version is 1.9.7 anyone tried uninstalling the updates to see if an oldre version would work?
Sent from my LT28at using xda app-developers app
Yes.. didn't change. Even reinstalled updates and uninstalled again. Nothing.

Just my 2 cents, but might it have something to do with the stock Facebook Timescape app? Maybe they are both trying to access the same information and creating a bug in the FB app.

Tried without authorizing Timescape. Same issues. nd it's only the app itself for me. The mobile site and full site both work fine.
I've actually switched. Now using timescape and.pulse to check my facebook. Flipboard is OK but doesn't show the entire feed always. Timescape will just have to do till the app is fixed

I too have been experiencing this, and it seams to have gotten worse in the past few days.
Sent from my LT28at using xda app-developers app
Yeah, it's a huge annoyance to me. I don't even really attempt to open up the app on my ion. Until it's fixed, I will continue to browse facebook on my BlackBerry Bold. I keep hoping for another update to be pushed out to see if this problem will be resolved.

Distorted text

Hey guys, I'm asking this question in behalf of a co-worker. Her phone is brand new, stock, no root or any mods.
She starts typing in the internet address bar and, where it drops down and shows you previous Web addresses, that text is all garbled. It does it in the standard browser as well as her twitter app.
She doesn't know anything about phones so she exchanged it for a new one and it does the same thing. I've never had any problems like that on mine and I can't find anything similar on Google.
She is running the newest OTA from Rogers.
Any ideas what could resolve this?

which language she was typing?

English. The drop down text just becomes all garbled. White squiggly lines, hard to explain.

Thumb keyboard problems.

I love this keyboard because of the auto correct feature and the amount of options you can choose. For some reason while I'm typing sometimes it will do double letters and it's at random. Sometimes it will look like this "HHey what aree you doing?" Am I the only one with this issue. Using it on my completely stock AT&T galaxy s3.

I haven't experienced that issue but it will ocasionally say I hit a letter than I didnt

It's my favourite keyboard, I use it every day in the past 10 months or so, didn't have this problem either. (Used it on atrix, vivid and hox). Maybe the screen is a little too sensitive?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
There is no way of adjusting the sensitivity of the screen from my understanding. I just am curious if I'm the only one to have this problem or if someone else has experienced it at all doing the same thing. I don't know I'll try not typing so light and see if that makes a difference. If someone has had this problem and they fixed it please let me know how.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Has anyone seen if maybe it's the speed at which you're typing. If I type slow its not so bad. If I start typing faster it starts putting the double letters. Just trying to figure this out. Thanks for the information in advance.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I have the same issue. I type pretty fast and it always has that double letter issue and even sometimes has double words even though I only enter it once. I decided to stick with the stock ics keyboard from the play store which works great without any typos with my quick typing

Who is the developer of the keyboard you're using?

I definitely have this issue, and am using 4.6.00.147 version of the app (the most recent I believe) as I don't see any update in the Play Store. I love this keyboard, but this part of it is very frustrating. So much to the point that I went back to the stock AOSP keyboard, but I want this to be fixed.
EDITED: I've reached out to the developer to see if there is any idea on what's causing/how to fix. I will post any updates if I get any that are constructive.

Gmail bug?

I am noticing that if I am reading an email within the Gmail app and swipe left or right to view the previous or next message I get a counterclockwise circle indicating the message is downloading but it never does. If the message was previously downloaded I can swipe into it fine.
Anyone else?

So weird, same thing happening to me... I hadn't noticed it. I think you legitimately found a bug.
I think it is a bug. The images are actually downloaded in most cases, but just don't show until you back out of the screen and quickly re-enter or force another action that happens to make them appear.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
Happens to me too. Maybe try the latest 4.2 gmail leak or whatever it was?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
I can also confirm this happens to me... but I found that turning the phone from portrait to landscape fixes it. Weird.
Same thing here
Same thing here. It's annoying because there's no alternative (like a button or similar).
Have to go back and click next e-mail every time...
