About LinkBacksHas anyone noticed that when texting, using SwiftKey, that the back arrow makes the cursor jump randomly around the message, rather than just backspace? Seems to have started after the ICS upgrade. Google search turns up nada regarding this bug. SwiftKey is up to date, AFAIK. Non-rooted Rezound.

08-08-2012 10:40 AMOh this was something we found a while ago, older versions of swiftkey don't work and were pretty buggy on the Rezound. Swiftkey 3 and up do work though.
Helpful Rezound Links:

Did you know: You can upgrade your Rezound to ICS without rooting?
Fun Rezound Fact: The antennas for the Rezound are in the battery cover.
Don't forget to backup your flash player install before they remove it from the Android Market.

08-08-2012 03:31 PMIt's always done that for me. Keyboard is awesome except for the.
Really irritating to be zipping through a text only to realize that the cursor had jumped into the middle of a paragraph -

08-09-2012 09:18 AMGot the latest SwiftKey 3 (paid version). Tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Didn't help. While the problem that I'm experiencing is that in a text message, the back arrow causes the cursor to jump to the top line, and then seems to work normally from there, I found a SwiftKey forum where others are describing a problem where the back arrow not only causes the cursor to jump around, but adds letters to the text. The complaints are recent (July 2012),
Swiftkey is unusable on discussion forums. Using the back arrow key to move the cursor backwards adds repeat character, cursor jumps around
Hope SwiftKey jumps on a fix soon. -

08-09-2012 12:48 PMDo you have other keyboard software, or have you in the past? I wonder if maybe some other software is interfering with it somehow... Another keyboard or maybe some other software...
