I've been using this since Dec24th. I cannot fill in forms with my keyboard on the web browser. It works for a few strokes, then stops inputting what I type. This is the 2nd droid RAZR I've installed JB 4.1.2 on and same results. I wiped it to factory reset and still does it. Let me know if it's doing that to you. I have tried better keyboard, Go keyboard, the original keyboard, and also keyboard 2.0 and all result in the same problem when filling out forms on web browser. Like username and password forms. Crazy. Need a fix soon! Apps freeze. My phone stays black screen when I pull away from ear after a call and can't hang up.
ReplyDeleteI tested on my Razr, using the stock browser. Using stock keyboard it came with. I did not have any of the issues you mention, i tested filling out couple of forms online and strokes did not stop inputting like you indicated.
ReplyDeleteMaybe there is particular website it happens on?
