 Description   

Every time I try and change the gamemode or game difficulty in the settings menu the game soft freezes. By soft freeze I mean I can still tap on the pop ups but I cant exit or do anything else unless I reset. This also happens when creating a new world. This bug is one of the worst right now and because of It I cant create any worlds in creative.

Edit: April 18th
This bug still exists. I would like the mods for reopening this. It still happens in 1.0.6 and is getting progressively more annoying. I had to download someone else's world just to /fill it to make it superflat because creating any superflat world is impossible.

To also add, very rarely this bug will not occur for me. This has only happened 3 times, all of those times its when im changing the difficulty of a creative world. No other time has this bug not happened. I am still not using any resource packs or mods. I am using the Classic UI profile but I have tested it, and it also occurs on the Pocket UI Profile. (Note that, yes I know the difficulty can be changed with commands. I forget that alot.)

Its not. That is saying that the entire settings screen lags and it dosent. The game freezes, not lags, whenever I try to change the gamemode or difficulty, not any setting. Its clearly a different issue.

It could be just the lag/stall mentioned at MCPE-18160. If you think it is, please add a vote and any extra information there.

Yeah thats the thing. I dont have any mods/addons other than one texture pack, and I already deleted it and restarted and that didnt solve it so im not sure thats it in this case? I did download a PC GUI mod a very long time ago like when 1.0 originally came out but I deleted it almost immediately because it didn't work at all.

Make sure you don't have an older version of "PC GUI" addon or anything similar to it.
It is known to cause the very problem you described.
