    I'll receive sms text. and when i go to reply i'll begin typing but after a few words it just starts erasing everything that i've typed out. or if i hit delete to fix a misspelling. it will begin to erase everything.

    i haven't installed anything or taken any pictures/videos/themes recently.

    just started doing this tdoay

    why is this doing this? and what can i do to fix it?

    Is your delete key sticking? Maybe there is some debris around the key causing it to stick. Try cleaning with a small amount of alcohol on a qtip.

    Another thing you may want to look at is your Auto Text option. Press menu and look for Auto Text. I know for fact if you type an autotext entry (ie. gp meaning 'going to the park') and if you tried to change park to 'poll', it will delete the entire entry. Don't know if this is what's happening on your BB but it does lend itself to deleting text. HTH
