967386 - Keyboard whitespace does not get removed when keyboard is no longer shown after switching back to app from app switcher

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: Preinstalled B2G Apps, defect)

Attachment: screenshot

1. Tap the text field in LINE. Keyboard pops up.
2. Long-press the home button to bring up the app switcher - switch to Settings, for example.
3. Long-press it again to switch back to LINE.
4. Keyboard is no longer displayed but the large whitespace still remains, see screenshot.

On other platforms, I'm fairly sure the whitespace gets removed automatically.

Tested on Firefox OS 1.2 build ID 20140203210640 on a Peak. LINE version was 1.0.2.1 when I first downloaded it from https://marketplace.firefox.com/app/line

To workaround, tap the text field to make the keyboard show up, then tap the message area - keyboard should disappear, but this issue seems like a real annoyance.

Can you see this on other apps (eg the SMS app) too ?

No I don't, so I guess this is not a FxOS issue.

WFM with today's mozilla-central FxOS 3.0 build, with LINE version 1.7.
