[Q] No keyboard during incoming call - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
Just notices this very annoying and strange behavior of my XZ (Vodafone Stockrom 4.2/.67)
When I receive a call I cannot use the keyboard anymore. As a matter of fact, the keyboard does not pop up when I open e.g. the notes-app or any app waiting for text-entry. The cursor is there and blinking but the keyboard does not show up, no matter which app (notes, quickoffice, kingoffice, sms, even google play store the search field.) I cannot take notes during the call or change any contact/calendar details. Really annoying.
Does anyone ever experienced the same?
Thanks in advance,
Michael

[Q] Xperia Z keyboard not responding in Whatsapp & LINE

Hi! All. My Xperia Z's keyboard is having this issue where when i go into Whatsapp to reply to a conversation, the keyboard does not respond to what i type. nothing shows up. I have to tap back button then re-enter into the conversation in order for the keyboard to work. This always happens when i receive a notification & i want to reply but does not happen when i want to send a message in Whatsapp. I notice that another app called LINE is randomly having this issue too. so far the SMS app is not giving any issues. Anyone knows how i can fix it cause its very annoying. BTW, my set is rooted on 101.A.1.434. I've checked with a few fellow users all do not have such an issue.

Strange issue

I am using the 8SMS app for messaging and Swype. Every once in a while when I try to send an SMS, the on screen keyboard will not pop up. Sometimes when I turn the phone into landscape it comes up, but usually not. Then I set the default messaging app to Messaging, and it still doesn't work.
Anyone have an issue with the Swype keyboard coming up?

[Q] hangouts and stock phone dialer problems

Hello I have my nexus 6 with sprint and intigrated/ported my number to Google voice. I am trying to use hangouts as my stand alone dialer but the problem is when I get calls both the native phone rings and hangouts at the same time. And prevents me from accepting a call. If I use hangouts the stock dialer will still be ringing in the background and if I answer with stock dialer well I won't be using hangouts. I turned off notifications for phone and that works randomly. I went to google voice and disabled forward to phones. I tried to disable stock dialer but that did nothing. When i disabled the other phone related apk's hangouts would jist glitch out or not connect. Side note when hide notifications is working the stick phone doesn't ring or interfere with hangouts but I still see a notification that I missed a call even though o answered with hangouts. So yea anyone else with this issue or know a fix?

[Q] Can't reply to texts using "reply" button and voice; everything else works

[Q] Can't reply to texts using "reply" button and voice; everything else works
I've encountered a really strange problem on my watch (Samsung Gear Live) lately. Not a single texting app will let me use the "reply" button with voice.
Example: Friend texts me, text pops up on my watch. I swipe it and click "Reply" and try to reply using my voice. The text will write out on my watch screen, but the red Google mic icon just sits there for about 10 seconds as if its still thinking it's receiving input, and then it takes me to the "disconnected/watch is offline" screen.
But the watch is obviously not disconnected: I can exit that app and tap the screen and say "Okay Google" and then say "Text friend 'hi how's it going'" and the text will send without a problem.
I've encountered this error when using Coffee SMS, WearResponses, and Google Messenger. I've reset the watch, and cleared Android Wear data, and the problem still persists. This makes no sense. Any ideas/suggestions?

Incoming call takes full screen preventing any activity -> looking for another app

Dear friends,
I would like the incoming call (while the phone is not in use) to appear as a popup or at least allow me to ignore it.
For now, if the note8 is not in use, the incoming call takes full screen and prevent any activity until I reject or answer it. This issue is extremely annoying as I just want to be able to ignore the call = put in background etc. and let's say unlock the phone with fingerprint and open home screen to check notifications etc.
I could not find any app which allows this option, any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Just press the home button. The phone app will be minimized while the phone is still ringing. You can then do other things on the phone.

My issue with pressing the Home button is that it also dismisses anything that I'm working on. I'm sometimes in the middle of a lovely YouTube video or movie when I get these annoying calls that I can always return at a later time. I want the thing I'm looking at presently to remain on-screen and continue to function as normal. Incoming calls disrupt Whatsapp voice notes I'm recording and Camera videos I'm recording with the native camera app.
