Help Re calibrate keyboard

[814 htc evo]

Is there any way to re calibrate the keyboard touch points on the samsung gsIII because as of earlier today when I am typing a message my delete key wants to put the letter L in instead of deleting..and I have cleaned my screen I have restarted my device and it works when it wants to and iv never had this problem before nor have I dropped my device so im not sure why all of a sudden this is happening!?

I've never actually seen an s3 calibration go astray, that been said I don't think there is any solution on the phone it's self. You can how-ever reset your settings back to factory, or reinstall the OS via KIES

There is also third party apps that claim to solve these issues, But none have I deemed any good

I will mail you/Repost on here If I find anything out for you

Thanks man

Have you tried the phone's standard calibration? I'm not sure if that will change the keyboard though, but it's worth a shot.

I searched for the standard calibration but was unable to find that without factory resetting my device :-(

I'm having the same issues with my wife's S3. If anyone has a solution, please let me know.

My daughter had the same issue. Turned out it was the bling case she had on it. Try removing the case if you have one on and see if it helps.

open app manager, find the keyboard app, clear cache clear history then reboot. End of problem!

I don't have the option of clearing the cache. Can I download the stock keyboard and reinstall?

I dont have the option to clear the cache either and I dont have a screen protector or a case on mine I can only clear the data

I couldn't find the original Samsung keyboard app but I did find one that is close enough. Dl'd and all is fine at the moment.

go to your settings, language and input, the Samsung keyboard title will be dark but click the settings gear next to it, then reset settings at the bottom. so far Houston, we have liftoff!

I read somewhere that from ICS and on that there isn't a need to recalibrate the keyboard, which is why it's not included
