I've bought a Desire Z a few days ago and it's been working fine so far.
However I just tried to calibrate the soft keyboard and when I slide out the hardware keyboard now the soft keyboard opens
I've tried removing the calibration profile but it still opens and I also can't close the soft keyboard.
If I close the hardware keyboard the soft keyboard also closes again.
I haven't got the chance to root it so the phone is comletely stock, I've only installed some apps.
I hope you guys can help me with my new phone
Edit: Weirdly, the problem was solved by deleting the user dictionary
I don't see how those can be related but since restarting and removing the calibration profile didn't work I tried it and it doesn't open anymore

I dropped my G2 a while back and the screen cracked but still worked fine. I just got the digitizer replaced today, which I ordered on eBay and had installed locally. Everything works except for the auto-rotate function. Here is what I've tried:
Settings-->display-->auto-rotate screen is checked
I did a factory reset of the phone
The phone rotates to landscape mode ONLY when I use the keyboard
Any ideas?
Just throwing this out there but try going into Cyanogenmod settings>user interface> than scroll towards the buttoma nd see if 90 and 270 is checked. Might help and maybe try a game that uses the accelerometer to test if yours is broken? Not a expert on this kind of thing but just my advice to see if you track the source of the problem. And i am only assuming that you haev cyanogen
Thanks for the info, not rooted right now though.
Just went into Google Sky Maps and it doesnt rotate at all. Is there anywhere in settings to calibrate the accelerometer? Wondering if it's a problem with the new digitizer I got...
I've had a similar prob with 2 NIB G2's. It showed up after the OTA, Pre OTS, everything was fine, after, landscape only works with certain apps and games. I just live with it for now.
i'm bumping this. i am not rooted (yet) and have this same issue. wondering whether to do a factory reset or no...?
I purchased the Desire Z/G2 3 days ago now and I believe that the auto-rotate feature was first working on the home-screen. Now after 3 days it doesn't auto-rotate on the home-screen, but is fine with all other apps.
Is this a common problem as I feel to return the handset. I've already performed a hard reset but to no avail
Has anyone fixed this?

Desire Z or G2? The software is different, so you need to tell us which one you have.
If its the Desire Z, the Sense home screen does not auto-rotate (by design), and you are remembering it wrong (but it will rotate when you open the keyboard). Don't know about the G2, since I own the DZ.
Thanks Redpoint. I own the Desire Z, I managed to install an ADW theme and the auto-rotate feature seemed to work. So you are correct...wow my memory is alluding me.
Hi all,
Got the reflex ROM installed but am having problems with changing the keyboard. I installed SwiftKey and all works fine, but when i reset my phone it reverts back to the stock keyboard everytime...I also tryed getting the GB keyboard off the market but it wont even allow this to run.
Any ideas...?
Cheers.
With resetting your phone, your set the rom the state from which out comes. All settings will be default. And the default keyboard setting is the android keyboard. So there isn't any issue, it's the normal way.
Swyped from Oxygen with Transparent XDA App
So I updated my Verizon GNEX to 4.2.2 yesterday and I feel like the OTA did a bad install. Prior to the update I had no keyboard issues but now whenever I open the keyboard to use it (stock keyboard) it repeatedly slides in and out of view without touching the screen at all or while im typing which is even more annoying. If I switch to a custom keyboard (like swiftkey) it does the same, only instead of slidiing in and out of view it will rapidly flash in and out of view. I would really like to keep my phone stock. Everything else works fine. Its just this one issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
BTW: I've already tried a factory reset, going to the stock keyboard app and clearling data, cache, force stopping and disabling. None of it has solved the issue.
Hello everyone, I recently purchased a "G4" and I noticed two annoying problems, the keyboard appears with the handbrake with any app, even turning off the tips of the words, I solved using another keyboard although there have been a little bad, with all my smartphone I always used keyboards stock without problems.
As for the problem of the led I believe that will not work with third-party apps and here I turn to you because I do not know how to solve.
Thanks.
Any permanent solution for that? I can clear data and it works. But it resets everything. And after a few days it disappears again. I can actually type but I see no keyboard.
I had the same problem on my Z Play with stock 7.1.1 (soak test). The Gboard disappaer and goes black. I have then force close in Settings, Apps, Gboard. Then it working again for a while.
Now I have switch to LOS14.1 and the problem isn't come again. Maybe the final release of stock 7.1.1 fix the problem, too?
But I really don't know if it's a rom problem or an app problem.

I get this too a lot. Never happened when I was still using my LG G3, but ever since I switched to the Z Play it crashes sometimes or the keyboard just stays black.

But that's a software problem. On LOS14.1 I have not this issue. But here is all newest now That's feels so good
And would be interested to know if the problem by Motorolas Stock ROM or by Googles Gboard.
And I see that I have gotten the newest version of Gboard with the latest Open Gapps. Maybe it's enough to update Gboard? Otherwise moto has the bug in her firmwares.
Just enable Force GPU rendering on Dev settings and will be fixed

I would say that's the problem is by Gboard. Would try to update Gboard first. Then we would know exactly.
But don't know. Try Gboard update, then we see.
Had this problem also , seems to be solved with the latest gboard update a couple of days ago.
Me too. Started about 2 months ago, When starting Google search the keyboard appeared, disappeared, appeared. I often typed in an area exactly when the keyboard disappeared. Sometimes it seems to have crashed, no keyboard to see, needed to switch to a different keyboard and back to re-enable. Was happening about every second day. Then I found it it is active, but invisible!
All that crap ended last week after an update. Hope all the issues had the same reason which got fixed.
Not all issues are fixed. When activating Google Search bar, the keyboard sometimes still appears, disappears, appears. It's a really bad timing because every second time I start typing exactly in the moment when it disappears for a quarter second, and thereby deactivate it and start something else whatever is under the key I press (maybe the second key press if the first got used by deactivating, dunno for sure).
