Autocorrect error

When I type in "Ok", the phone wants to correct it to "OK" (capitalize it). It has always done this. After the latest update, when I press the space bar to accept the correction, it comes out as "OOK". I don't know why it's doing this or how to fix it. If I can't fix it, whom may I complain to, so I can get it fixed? Thanks in advance.

"OOK" is not in the personal dictionary. It is not giving me an option to select "OOK". It just inserts OK after the O that I typed to make OOK.

My Turbo 2 is not changing Ok to OOK when I hit he space bar, it changes it to OK. I am using the stock Keyboard, which is the Google keyboard on our phones.

Try clearing the cache on Google keyboard..and force stopping it...mine has actually been acting strange..but I type so fast that 40% of my words cone out wrong.

I've been getting bad typos like in words like "eventuality" if I haven't used it in a while..my phone will slap down something like everyone and some other crud..i miss my blackberry keyboard..but would rather deal with a bad virtual keyboard and have the screen space..for instance ..i typed acting strange and it types eating...tried typing it down here and I get typo action...its just weird at times..

The texts you send must be EPIC! . The keyboard and I don't get along sometimes. Sending words I didn't even type.

I am using the stock keyboard. I tried forcing it to stop. I did not reboot after forcing it. Maybe I will try those together next. Any other thoughts?

So is doesn't show up as a suggestion? It just automatically replaces it? If so, I think the next thing to do would be to install a different keyboard. Uninstall Google keyboard. Reboot. Reinstall Google Keyb.

No. It does not show up as a suggestion. To modify a previous post, it's more like it removes the "k" and replaces it with "OK" to make "OOK". I don't know of any way to uninstall the Google keyboard. The most I can do is force it to stop. Here goes....

OOK is gone. I disabled the keyboard, rebooted and then re-enabled the keyboard. It seems to have taken care of the glitch. Thanks.
Excellent troubleshooting and fantastic results! Thanks for keeping us informed and for sharing your results. This could be very helpful to someone else down the road.
