This issue cannot be reproduced on latest FlameKK v2.5&master, AriesKK master build.
Actual result:When you enter text in password field, the cursor is displayed at right side of the last character all the time. (Only the LTR text, symbols and numerals can be inputted in password field, so the cursor should be displayed at right side of the last character. If the text in RTL, the cursor will be displayed at left side of the text).
See attachment:Cursor_password field.3gp.
