Me too have experienced this after GDR3 Developer Update. Restarting the device doesn't help. The only way is only to type in landscape, which is quite pain in the *** because I like to lock the orientation portrait. Anyone have reached Naver/Microsoft regarding this problem or have a successful workaround?

After I first installed GDR3 on my 920, I opened the multitasking view and the background color was flickering. It hasn't done it lately though. And there's faint vertical line displayed in the top section between each app. It's faint, but I can see it and it annoys me.

Found this while voting in WP Uservoice .
We?re definitely here and paying attention to what you folks are asking for? keep in mind the trick for us is balancing things that make EXISTING devices better for you, our enthusiast users, versus things that create new devices to sell to a broader audience. A lot of the work in GDR2 was around enabling new devices? like the Lumia 1020, devices on Sprint, etc. so that we could keep growing the size of the WP ecosystem. We need to grow the number of people using WP so we get ISVs writing the apps, we get better/more accessories built, etc.
Of course this takes time and energy, but we still do intend to improve the user experience for you via new features. There?s some in GDR 2 (eg. DataSense broadly available, FM Radio) there?s more coming later this year, and still more after that.
Don?t worry ? we are listening to you folks!"

To ELYOD:
Yes, I can confirm that in GDR2 it already behaves the way you described. I have an 820. (...when you are in an application and enter the multitasking screen, the start screen isn't there.)

I noticed that when im in wifi mode my batt is draining fast, is it because as a registered in "developer preview" and the option for "notifying me if there is an update is gone" is that my phone is continiously searching for an update thats why im draining fast than before?

Deleting the temporary files in the settings doesn't work for my HTC 8X. No other bugs seen yet.

I had the same issue- I changed my Facebook profile pic back to my latest pic directly from my phone, and it seemed to have worked.
My proximity sensor stopped working last night. Phone would not turn the screen off when holding up to my ear. Rebooted and its working again. That never happened before.
Other than that, there is the issue of the phone not obeying my custom txt sound setting. If I'm not in a chat window, custom sound plays but once you inside a chat, the default txt sound plays. I'm kind of on the fence about whether this is an actual bug though. After thinking about it, I don't want my phone saying "Snake, come in snake!" with every txt that comes through. One time to notify me of the first attempt of communication is enough. This is probably as intended
