s3 problem?

I've got a unbranded s3 on the latest firmware and I can't seem to access my keyboard or copy and paste from the internet anymore? Anyone else experiencing this?

I've read of the S3 having a few problems, seems this is just another one to add the list. I guess this problem will be down to it using Google's Android OS.

Nothing wrong with MY Google Android OS. Works perfectly fine on my Google Android OS based phone.

No, you haven't whatsoever. I'm an active member of the XDA forums and i haven't yet seen a fault with the S3.

This is a fault with Android. Nothing to do with the S3.

I do wish you would drop this....

“Hi everyone,

I also had this problem, I found a solution without do a factory reset.

The app in question is TestService.

First you have to clean the directory /data/clipboard, delete everything in it with root explorer. After that, go to manage applications and find the app TestService, uninstall the updates.

After a reboot, copy/paste should work again.”

You have to be rooted though. Failing that, a factory reset.

Ill wait for jelly bean and hope that fixes it. Don't know how to root and cba to do a factory reset as kids crashes when it tries to back up my apps and my apps are all situated the way I like them on my app drawer

I haven't had a single problem with my S3 yet, can be a bit well I don't know..just not smooth like iOS. But in other ways its better than my iPhone 4s.

I dont know what you've dont to your iPhone 4s, but i dont find it smooth on the work ones. From the home screen just put your finger down and it jumps to join your finger. Hardly smooth.

Mine wasn't either. I was genuinely surprised when i had mind as i was told by everyone this was the one good thing about iphones. Used to jerk terribly about especially when going from the first page to the search page.

You need to close all the apps every fews days or else lots lie in a dormant state. I assume this frees memory. Everything runs much smoother after you do that

I thought Apple did that for me.

They say the phone manages memory but it doesnt do it very well. The phone works much better after all the apps are closed. I am a fan boy but I can admit apples faults. I am thinking of getting an s3 to use alongside my soon to be purchased iphone 5. I run a 4s but that is getting sold very shortly.
