Details

When entering a password into an HTML form using the Google Japanese IME in English/12key mode it is difficult to enter a character from the same key twice in a row. Every subsequent press of the key modifies the last character (ie rotates it through the characters for that key). To replicate: 1. Set IME to 12 key mode and English for the screen orientation you are using. 2. Navigate to a password field. 3. Press 'a', wait 2 seconds, press 'a' again. Actual: The 'a' character for the first press is modified to 'b'. Expected: A second 'a' character to be entered. The normal keyboard 'commits' the character after a second or two of idle time. Device: HTC Desire HD Android: 2.3.5 Firefox: Nightly 16.0a1 (2012-07-11)
Sorry I have been using the 12-key English mode a bit more and it turns out that is exactly how the IME behaves even outside of Firefox.
