The iPhone is designed for you.

The dumbphone was designed for me.

@Drago - not sure whether It's mentioned above, but there is also (possibly) a very occasional problem with Chrome on a sister website. If you have want fault-free access to Cycle Chat, you're probably better off using another browser. I use Internet Explorer 11 and have had no problems whatsoever.

I must check and see what software the other site uses.

I think Drago would much prefer it if he could keep Chrome as his browser. He wants it to work as it should ideally.

As helpful as the members are trying to be, I think it is best to ask on a site that is more topic specific.

Go on here and select the forum section https://www.androidcentral.com/
OR maybe here http://www.androidtablets.net/

I've tried deleting and reinstalling the Chrome updates

Have you tried uninstalling the updates and NOT re-updating? If it worked before and not now then maybe an older version will still work?

 

[Drago]

Aye mate, tried that, negative result. I've yet to try swearing and thumping it on the table.

Try having a read on the XDA forums. Might be summat helpful on there.

Also see if there is a user agent add on for Chrome, so it can spoof the site into thinking it's a different device or browser...

Also, have we assumed that the issue may not be Chrome at all, but the keyboard itself? Has that had any recent updates? Force stop it in the apps section, clear the cache and data and then reboot the Tab...

They are talking about it on the XenForo forum - HERE. Apparently, it IS a Chrome issue. One person said that a new version of the Swiftkey keyboard works ok. Another workaround is to disable the Rich Text Editor (top right - spanner icon) and use the BBCode editor instead.

Ah, top bloke!

Thanks Colin. Changed to SwiftKey, I'll let you know how I get on.

I use the Hacker's Keyboard on my tablet. Google do their own as well, which you'd like to think will play nicely with Chrome. I find it irritating because its autocorrect function spells everything in American. It's not my favorite.

Many thanks to the most excellent @ColinJ for directing me to that thread. I've followed some of the tips there, and all is rosy again.

You're welcome.
