I brought a villager from far away, I put it in my house and when it was night I realized that there was something wrong with him. He was sleeping on the floor and the cart is also very slow.
This ticket will no longer be monitored for updates
Thanks to everybody for your information! However, after receiving many reports of villagers being bumped out of their beds, we have concluded that this is a duplicate report. I am therefore merging this ticket with MCPE-101202.
If you voted for or commented on this report, we would appreciate it if you would upvote MCPE-101202. As far as commenting goes, we already know that:
It affects multiple platforms and all current releases,
It affects sleeping villagers,
The villagers float off their beds when a player, another mob, or another entity touches them,
They may drift away slowly or shoot away suddenly,
They can go through solid blocks with no damage, but may turn black while doing so,
They remain in the sleeping position, usually floating above the ground or lying on the ground,
They may come to a stop somewhere they can't be seen and are often reported as "invisible" when this happens,
They will reappear in their beds or standing beside their beds after the player reopens the world, breaks the bed, or does one of a number of things.
It is not necessary to add a comment to MCPE-101202 if you're only repeating the above symptoms or reporting that it happens on your device; your upvote is a better way to do that. However, feel free to add a comment with any new information you discover.
Also, there have been reports of other invisible mobs and/or mobs appearing at a distance from where they are actually at. We are still looking into whether we think that is the same bug.

Possibly related to the fix for MCPE-101202.
Possibly related to the fix for MCPE-101202.
I started having problems with this immediately after installing 1.16.100. This is in an old single-player village that was upgraded to V2 by the Village and Pillage update. I have put a lot of work into this village, implementing changes to assign every villager a bed in a house with a workstation near it. I have installed a bell, created grass paths, and reduced terrain height. I had it working very well, with only a small problem with a couple of villagers sometimes still not able to pathfind to their bed at sunset.
After installing 1.16.100 I went to this village (to check whether my discounts were gone) and lingered for several days observing them. I have observed a number of anomalies:
Occasionally, when one lies down it does so not aligned with its bed. It then slides over the bed while in the sleeping position, but sometimes it comes to rest half on the bed and half off, like this:
[media][media]
Other times it misses the bed entirely. In this image, you can see the beds inside the doors. The doors were closed when I found them here; I opened them so you can see the beds.
One of the villagers who has trouble finding his bed I found standing just inside a door. I opened the door, walked through the villager, and tried to nudge it toward its bed, which is a technique that usually worked before if I nudged him close enough to the bed. But this time he wouldn't be nudged, because even standing up, he wasn't really there! After the night ended, another villager confirmed this by walking right through him.
Another thing I've noticed is that when they slide over their bed after lying down, they're initially a fraction of a block low and have to rise into the final position.
Another thing I've noticed is that if anything comes into contact with a villager positioned correctly on its bed, the villager will slide off as if it had been pushed. It may turn black if it slides into a wall. It may also disappear entirely. I thought it might be suffocating so I broke the wall and floor in the vicinity but couldn't find it.
If a villager is being rendered in the wrong sleeping position or has disappeared, breaking its bed will cause the villager to appear where the bed was. You can then nudge it out of the way, place the bed down again, and it will go back to bed normally. However, you can push it off again just by standing beside the bed, so this is one way to reproduce at least part of the problem. I made a video that demonstrates this. It's too big to upload here, so I'm sharing it via OneDrive at the following link: https://1drv.ms/v/s!Agfpi9lElwxOgoQMyLvQl47m9y2_fw?e=hnTYz3
Also, if you have mispositioned or disappeared villagers at night, quitting and reloading the world will render them at the correct position again.
Auldrick: I suppose you already have enough info now, as this got transfered to MCPE-101202
To answer some questions: I always place the the bed pillow facing a wall and I did not see any other villager having the problem, but this one and his room-mate farmer (standing right after the door and wall, where the pumpkin is). These are actually the original two (each from different village) I used to breed the others (not far from this - many librarians).
There are cats spawning, but I do not think they are triggering it, those two ALWAYS disapear when they go sleeping, no matter what.
[media]No problem with these:
[media]Checking the two again and yes, no cat, invisible villagers (librarians are sleeping in their beds, fisherman and farmer are invisible):
[media]Thanks for responding! At the time I asked those questions, I was trying to develop a theory to explain why this issue happens to some villagers sometimes but not to others or at different times. Since then it has become clear that one condition causing this is when a mob brushes up against the sleeping villager's collision box. In your case, your cats are probably responsible. (I did a test specifically to see if cats could cause it, because you find them in every village and they'll intentionally jump on a villager's chest while it's sleeping.) I found that they do cause it, and this probably explains a large percentage of the reports we've had. But it also happens after I've sat all the village's cats down far away from the bed, and there's nobody else around. I think part of it is that the villager may contact the wall as it slides over the bed and spins to align itself. From what I've seen, its initial orientation when it lies down may be related to the angle it approaches the bed from, so that would account for a lot of the randomness.
Anyway, thanks for the info. If you find out anything new, please add a comment to MCPE-101202, and be sure to upvote it if you haven't already.

Upvoted there already. I am pretty sure cats are not the reason in case of that fisherman and farmer, maybe the barel is, maybe the angle and that it is double-bed, who knows.
But I can confirm that cats can do that, my librarian turned invisible (or is rendered where I cannot see him) and you can see the cats spawned in his appartment:
[media]Sure he is still in his cage during day (after I slept in far away bed - reloading or going far usually fixes it).
Anyway, cheers, bugs happen, people get angry... no need to shout at devs, they are working on it 🙂
