Every time anything is put into the google search bar it shows up as dots. Did I accidentally turn on a setting?

I have an Evo 4G and was using the regular browser in case that helps.

Hi,

I'm facing the exact same issue with my HTC inspire 4G.

The bug happened yesterday and only affects Google mobile homepage.
As soon as I send a search request then the Google search bar works fine.

Any fix please ?

Thank you.

Hi jewjitsu

Just to let you know , this issue has been fixed by the Google team. So the issue has nothing to-do with your device but comes from Google end.
You just have to clear you cache and your cookies in your browser settings.
Then refresh Google.com or Google.com/m and that's it

Cheers,

Mine cleared up last night, on its own. Glad it wasn't HTC, I like their phones.
