Anyone experience "jump line" issues while typing on note 5 ?

What I meant is, when we were typing (email, forum, or anything long), sometimes the cursor just jump to another line below sometime above while we're typing and it's annoying

Anyone has this issue as well and any fixes ?

Thx

Yes, constantly doing that and some other things.
Typing gets jammed up, like it freezes kind of.
Skips to next line as if I hit enter while in the middle of typing, cuts in the middle of other words, weird stuff like that.
I get freezes in different screens to, and auto brightness among other settings kick in when disabled, all by their selves.

From everything you have said on various posts, you have a problem with your phone or an app.

I dunno about other stuff, but the "jump line and cut in the middle of other words" thing is exactly what I experience ....

Re: Typing issues on note 5

I have never had those problems with Swiftkey, Swiftkey Neural, Samsung keyboard, or half a dozen others. Your problems sound like keyboard setup not set to your way of keyboarding or "lazy fingers/thumbs" on the part of the operator. :p
And as my young friends tell me, there is no such thing as "typing" anymore because there are no "typewriters" anymore. :D

Not experienced that problem with the Samsung keyboard. Trying SwiftKey may be a good idea to see if the problem persists.

Re: Typing issues on note 5

I have had the line jumping happen MANY times when writing an email. I use Swiftkey 99.5% of the time. The other 5% is trying SK Neural. My cursor will jump to the very bottom of the email, by the signature. I can never figure out what I am doing to cause this.

It very well could be the way you hold the phone and how you activate the keys while typing. Do you use the S pen, one finger, one thumb, both thumbs together, palm the phone on the sides of the phone, etc?. With the extremely narrow bezel on the Note 5 it is easy to activate the sides of the keyboard for example.

Re: Typing issues on note 5

I use two thumbs. 6 fingers are behind case and two pinkies on bottom to support. So, only two thumbs are anywhere near the screen.

Well, as far as i know, at least 3 person included me confirm to have this problem .... for me, i don't think the issue is on malfunction on holding the phone. I used 2 thumbs on typing and sometimes spen, both has issues (not everytime)

I just noticed, it seems like this happened when i have another "line" below on my typing. Right now (while i'm typing this) it didn't happen (with no line or signature below)

I tried to create some sentence (below this line) , and it happened immediately. That's remind me, my email has signature as well

Could anyone please help to try this and reconfirm back ?

Thx

Re: Typing issues on note 5

That happens to me a fair bit, and it's quite annoying. I have a preset signature and have found that the cursor jumps to the next line in the middle of my typing, and I know I have not hit the enter key.

I have the exact problem on my note 5, cursor jumping.

I have tried 4 different notepad apps, all of them do it.
I create a note each week to write out the days events at work. Type out each day and leave a couple spaces in between to fill in later...example:

M1st

T2nd

W3rd

Th4th......


Then I save the note. But when I go back to fill in the data to any one of them it will jump down every single time I try to type. On 4 different note pad apps...
