Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open System Settings
2. Tap on the WiFi panel
3. Tap on Connect to hidden network...
4. Enter a network name in the Network name field (the name doesn't have to be valid)
5. Change the Security field to WPA & WPA2 Personal
6. Enter a short password in the Password field (doesn't matter what)
7. Tap on the Show password checkbox (note that at the moment this action closes the OSK too)
8. Tap on the password field *after* the text

Expected result:

The cursor is set to the end of the text and the keyboard is shown

Actual result:
The entered text is deleted

Note that some people report this doesn't happen to them, but for me these steps seem to work every time.

Also noticed you cannot scroll to see the buttons at the bottom while OSK is up

See if you can fix the keyboard closing when you check the Show password box as well - although that might be a UITK issue

that would be the default behavior as the text field loses focus

(Pat, the buttons not being visible while the OSK is up is bug 1376763.)

This was reproducible because of text prediction, which because of a bug was enabled. This is also why I could not reproduce it – I had disabled text prediction globally.
