Ok, I might be loosing my mind, but I went back to the Samsung keyboard and played with it a lil bit,(a friend has same phone and said they don't use predictive text, and has not had any issues, which I found to be the case)but it seems that with the predictive text on,  it seems to be working now?!?!  I think, I haven't been able to recreate the loosing text issue right now. Will keep trying, has anyone seen that theirs is working now? And if so, How is that, no new update. 

UPDATE UPDATE>>>>> Yes I was loosing my mind, with predictive text on, it still deletes, DUH. Ok back to swype keyboard. LOL

My wife and I are experiencing the same issue. Go to make a simple correction and the whole message is gone. Yes, this must be resolved soon. I will email Samsung myself as well. I wish I had had a choice about the update. It just came on one day. I was excited at first but this inconvenience makes it hardly worth it. Samsung, get it together!

FYI, I have the same issue and I am on Sprint, galaxy s3. So it's not a Verizon thing. Would appear to be a Samsung-Jelly Bean issue. Thanks for the suggestion about downloading a new keyboard app.

It's definitely a Software update not related to any carrier.  The 4.1.2 update is the culprit, and it's junk.

I'm really stunned that this conversation has gone on so long with the new battery life issue since the last update. I'm sure there are more important issues than the keyboard.

I hear you.  But I suspect you haven't randomly lost 2-3 minutes of typing in one key stroke.  It is pretty frustrating.  Maybe if I was a faster Android typist 😉
