I can reproduce this issue only when the content provider (camera-app) is not running.
Try launching the app (camera or gallery) and leave it open before composing a new mms.

I guess the app is loosing focus when the content provider app is terminated.

On krillin, I can reproduce this bug every time. Even if the camera app was started beforehand.
In my case, I don't even have a chance to write two characters, the keyboard collapses instantly.
Desired solution: leave the mms/sms field in focus after adding a picture/video, etc. In case user wants to add a comment.
