I am having issues with my Droid Maxx not pasting the correct copied text.

Two examples:

I selected share on a file in drop box, selected copy link then went to my email app and long pressed and selected paste. The pastes text was from another copy session a few min earlier.

This has occurred in the stock messaging app, stock email apps and third party apps.

Using the same applications on my S4 and Note 2, cut / paste functions fine.

Is there a cache somewhere that need to be cleared?

I just tried this exact thing on my Maxx and composed a message in Gmail. When I pasted, it worked, with the copied Dropbox link.

Maybe it was a failure in the Dropbox app? Does this happen to you after a restart?
 
I have similar issues. I haven't been able to isolate it to any condition or app. Sometimes it works, sometimes it seems to retain whatever was there before. I posted this same question in another thread on this forum and nobody seemed to have a solution except downloading a third party clipboard app.

Edit: Title of the other thread is Clipboard Inconsistency

The issue manifests itself in every app. The initial paste works most of the time; however, almost every subsequent copy and paste seems to re paste the first copy.

Can't figure how to resolve this.
