Text message goes to phonebook on rotate

I've searched and can't apparently think of the right combination of words to describe this wonky behavior that is driving me out of my fricking mind.
Here's the issue - someone texts me, I hit the envelope, it starts to open it up, then I switch right away to the keyboard to actually coherently type a response and without fail the keyboard registers the first few letters in the text message and then goes right into trying to match an autocomplete match in the phonebook and kicks out of the text message completely.
The only way to stop this behavior is to sit there like a retard waiting patiently for the phone to reorient itself after opening the keyboard and then give it a few extra seconds just to be safe.
I could kill a midget I'm so fed up with this.
Ideas?

I am having the same problem. Running stock ROM with HTC Black TouchFlo 3D theme. Any advice would be appreciated.

I KNOW others have this issue - come on someone has to know a fix . . ..

I finally flashed a new ROM (EnergyROM Mercury). The problem is gone. I know it is not a fix, but it is a resolution. It was very frustrating. Good luck.

Vexing MyTouch Tapping Problem

Newbie here and I apologize in advance if I overlooked a past thread on this problem as follows:
Anyone else experiencing the frustration of having to constantly tap the screen to unlock every few seconds once you hit a prompt after keying a main number. This happens whether you receive or generate calls and it is a nightmare using the provided dialer which is embedded in the software.
I understand the idea behind this to not inadvertently tag a button with your cheek, grasping finger, etc.. but why is there no time interval or delay setting as you may have with keeping your screen lit? No solutions from T-Mobile thus hoping this forum will have some remedies or compatible equally functioning alternative dialer.

Issue with Keyboard

Hi all, been lurking for a while but thought I would finally post up.
Having an issue with my Nexus S on stock ROM v2.3.3. It isn't the same issues with the keyboard disappearing etc but it is an issue with the keyboard not inputting text when I type.
If I am typing a SMS reply to someone on my phone and I pause for a few seconds (to talk to someone for example) then I try to continue typing, the keyboard acts like its typing but does not actually type anything else into the message. The only fix I have managed to discover is exit the SMS so that a draft gets saved then once I go back into the message it works again.
Don't know if that is a clear enough description but if anyone else has any suggestions or even a fix for it then it would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Yeah I have that too sometimes. What also happens to me about every week is, that the smiley sections' and the (particularly important for me since I'm from Austria and using the German keyboard ü-ö-ä) special buttons and symbols' pop up extension (hard to describe, but I mean the thing that pops up when you put your finger on the expandable tile for like 2 second and which let's you select the unusual symbols from a list) simply will not pop up. So it would make it impossible for me to choose from the pre-created smileys etc.
I have found out that changing your input method to another keyboard (I use SwiftKey in these cases) and then changing it back Android keyboard make the problems disappear. But they seem to come back regularly and I haven't found out what causes them to appear...
Any help?

[Q] (SOLVED, PLEASE CLOSE) How to fix search feature missing/disabled?

Ok so I understand that this is probably a setting that i must of overlooked but i've been trying to find information about it for the past few days now. A few days back i changed the option to XDA classic but decided i didn't like it so i changed it back. This is around the time i noticed the search button missing and ontop of that its overlaying on the screen messed up. It didn't do this before and i'm not sure what i did or if maybe XDA is just improving their search button and thats why i'm having problems but its starting to bother me big time. I really did search for the answers as best i could without having use of the search button but i came up empty handed. Also if i got to my name it normally brought me right to the statistics where i could find my posts and so forth but now it brings me to About Me. No big deal though since all i need to do its select statistics which is right next to it but when i go to find posts i was in or threads i started i get "vBulletin Message, Searching has been disabled". Who disabled it and if it was me how can i enable it again? I would be very greatful if someone could shed some light on this and tell me what i'm doing wrong. UHGG!! I feel so stupid because i know its probably something small i'm doing wrong.

It's problem w/ board and admins are working to fix it.
Patience.

Huge thanks.
As i said i wasn't sure if it was something i was doing but i noticed it right when i was changing the style around. Thats a huge releif knowing it wasn't from something I did. I have no problem waiting patiently.

SMS Notification and Folder Issue

Hello all.
I just bought my galaxy s3 today and i've been having some problems. I've done a search throughout the forums and i couldn't find anything on it so i thought i'll give it a shot by posting a thread.
After i receive a text message the notification won't go away. Even after i have read and replied the notification still stays.
Also i have a folder made to keep all the apps that use on the front screen. after pressing the home button to close an app the folder opens up.
i googled these problems and have found questions without any answers. If anyone can shed a light on what the issue is and how to fix it i'd greatly appreciate it. thanks!
