It seems that this is a common glitch associated with some, but not all 3rd party onscreen keyboard apps.  It is up to the developers of these apps to patch this glitch.  As an end user you can either avoid using an effected keyboard or avoid rotating the phone when in the text entry mode.  Last updated 8/21/2012.

Text Messaging Repeats Last Word

It seemed to be an issue where the last word of the previous message sent would sometimes automatically populate the text entry of the new message composition.

reproduce the issue.

  1. When ready to type a message, go into landscape orientation.
  2. Type a word or more.
  3. Press the back button or "Done' to leave the keyboard. (At this point it doesn't matter if you send or not).
  4. Return to portrait orientation.
