Symptoms

You open the touch keyboard, you press space or enter after the image, and then you type some words. In this situation, certain words are auto-corrected incorrectly. For example, when you type this is, it is auto-corrected to tthis il. Additionally, the auto-correct feature does not work for incorrect words.

Note You can press the Backspace key to correct the words.
