I am not quite sure I completely understand what you are referring to. Could you perhaps test the following demo application for me: http://www.microemu.org/microemu-exa...roemu-demo.jad http://www.microemu.org/microemu-exa...roemu-demo.jar Run it, select "TextBox" and then "Any character". Then touch and hold for a second, and the native virtual keyboard should appear. While you enter characters, you should see them appear in the TextBox. Can you confirm this is working for you? I noticed the flickering too in Opera Mini :-( Davy
