Hello,

Which keyboard are you using, and can you provide some steps to reproduce? Also, can you try Nightly (http://nightly.mozilla.org) and report back if you're seeing the same issue?

This works for me on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Samsung Galaxy Note II, Asus Nexus 7 -- when I rotate the device to landscape, tap the URL bar, the keyboard is invoked.

WFM.
