Description Phil Chang 2012-07-11 05:50:32 UTC
I am using your mobile app on a htc evo design 4g android gingerbread on sprint. The app mostly works fine, however there is a Major bug with the search bar. It functions perfectly when used at the top of an article. However when used while halfway scrolled down in an article, the keyboard will not appear.

More details from another user:

Thanks for the quick reply. It is the official Wikipedia app, and it occurs as soon as I open the app. I've tried changing the orientation, copying/cutting/pasting into the search bar, changing keyboards (samsung/swype), force closing, deleting data, moving to sd, and re-installing the app. Nothing helped. I then rebooted my phone, and it worked fine. Would this be a glitch with the app, or something OS related? Should I get a logcat if it happens again, and send it?

Also when the search doesn't work, it does not show the grey 'Search' text when not clicked (or clicked), it highlights the text box (in orange) when I click it, and it also immediately shows the cursor mover (the arrow that appears below the text so you can precisely move the cursor), when it normally appears on a successive click, not the first.

We won't do further work on the PhoneGap app, and won't have this problem with the new native apps.
