Karo Lee yeah, it worked ok on beta build 8, no problem, but then I got the full release and the bug appeared.

This bug happens with Samsung Keyboard and Google Keyboard.
Also, my tablet is Samsung galaxy Tab2 7.0

How do you have Google Play installed on an Amazon tablet? I have a Kindle Fire but Amazon doesn't let you use Google Play.

This is happening to me aswell. It worked fine when I was on most of the Alpha builds, but now it just started happening to me on the official release (It may have had issues on build 8 and 9, but I'm not sure)

Build: Kindle Fire HD with Google Play installed
Build: Official 0.8.0 release

If you use the Samsung keyboard, this bug occurs. Just use a different keyboard. There are plenty on the Play Store!
