I'm re-posting this issue so I can make more people aware of what I came across. It has to do with the EditBox.

The back button on some devices may cause the edit box to lock up. It does on my Galaxy S3.

Here is my previous post:

After more testing with the edit boxes I've notice something strange.

When I pressed the edit box to input text for the first time, I'm able to input/delete text just fine.

After I finish entering text, I accidentally tapped the screen to the side of the edit box, which to my surprise closed out the keyboard.

I then tapped the edit box again, and to my surprise again, I was able to enter and delete text. IT'S WORKING...IT'S WORKING...ahem. The edit box didn't lock up.

BUT, if I press the back button on the device to close out the keyboard, and then tap to re-enter text; that action locks up the edit box.

I have tried it five times with the same result each time. As long as I don't close out the keyboard with the back button it works as expected.

So, is there any way to confirm this on other devices. I'm using Galaxy S3, working in Tier 2.

I wouldn't be so worry guys from TGC have your TODO list and as soon as will be released AppGameKit version 2.0 will start to correction and addition. Maybe in five years will reach the deficiencies which prevent us

I am not a mod here but could you please keep your complaining to your own threads when you can't post anything constructive in other people's threads.

This is a known issue on some devices, I originally had it on my Nexus 7 but a software update fixed it so I was hoping it might be fixed for good, but maybe some devices still suffer from it.

To fix it you need to replace a file in the NDK folder, browse to the \IDE\platform\android\Source folder and view the readme.txt file for instructions. This only affects tier 2 users as the interpreter is already compiled with this fix.

Thanks Paul!

Well, after moving the file, something definitely happen but the problem still exists. But instead of it happening all the time, it's more intermittent.

I think this has to be chalked up to that some devices will suffer from it.
