Help What the hell is wrong with this phone?

I've had this phone for about 3 months, and it's been nothing but a pain!

First, I have this problem when I'm on chrome, whenever I type something on a forum or inside some type of text box, the keyboard flashes uppercase after every space, even if I didn't put a comma or a period, so it messes up my text every single time. Why does it only do this in these boxes?

Also, sometimes, I swipe up for messages, and the camera opens, it will continue to do this when I tap messages until I reset my phone...

Another thing, sometimes I have to constantly switch off data because it will freeze on pages, even though I have full reception. This applies for WiFi, it sometimes doesn't pick up my home wifi, but will instead pick up another signal which I cannot use.

Other times, it exits apps even though I didn't touch home or back, it's so weird.

Why is there so many problems with this phone?
 
Some browsers have problems with ics. Opera seems fine so far.hey just for hell of it go to developer settings and look at the bottom half. Those make your phone do weird crap. My friend accidently ticked one and his phone had red squares everytime he touched it.
 
One more idea. Did you install BUSYBOX? If so it may not have installed properly
I was having problems with dolphin after a factory reset it went away but returned. I wonder if theres an app or file conflict. But he has wifi issues as well which i had after a busybox install that was bad. All sorts of weird sh## happened after thay
 
Hey, first, I don't know Jack. But, that sure sounds like more to me than just some bowowser chicanery.

If it were me, I'd start with a battery pull. If that didn't fix it, a factory reset. Probably Warranty after that.

No problems with Chrome and "Smart Keyboard" is the best app I've installed on my Motion.

LG warranties the Motion for 1 year, so you may want to contact Metro and if they won't replace it, contact LG

Good Luck.
