Crash when opening chat or when system keyboard appears

Minecraft Bedrock Edition crashes consistently when opening the chat or when the system keyboard appears.

This issue started after updating to HyperOS 3.0.3.0 on a POCO M7 Pro 5G running Android 16.

The crash happens immediately when:

  • opening chat in-game

  • the keyboard is displayed

  • or switching input focus to text fields

The game closes without error message and returns to home screen.

Device info:

  • Device: POCO M7 Pro 5G

  • OS: HyperOS 3.0.3.0 (Android 16)

  • Keyboard used: (Gboard / Xiaomi keyboard / autre)

  • Game mode: Survival / Creative (optionnel)

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Launch Minecraft Bedrock Edition

  2. Join a world

  3. Open chat

  4. Keyboard appears

  5. Game crashes instantly

Expected result:

Chat should open normally and keyboard should appear without crashing.

Additional info:

  • Issue persists after reinstalling Minecraft

  • Cache cleared

  • Happens both with and without Game Turbo (à préciser si vrai pour toi)

  • Appears to be related to HyperOS keyboard / overlay system interaction

2026/06/17I'm also troubled by this phenomenon.

At first I thought it was a problem with my phone's specs, but I'm a little relieved to know that others are experiencing the same thing. Thank you.

​ it starts to happen when I update my phone to HyperOS 3. After that my game can crash randomly when I need to use Gboard

Tested it with Microsoft SwiftKey as well, but the game still crashes randomly when trying to type.

Same with me. My phone's also android 16/ hyper os 3, never crashed before the update when typing

After consideration, the issue is being closed as Won't Fix.

Please note that this is not the same as Working as Intended, as this bug report correctly describes behavior in the game that might not be the intended or desirable behavior, but it will not be fixed right now. Sometimes, this is because the issue reported is minor and/or impossible to change without large architectural changes to the code base.

I have the same issue.

Device: Motorola Moto G56 5G

Android: 16 (Build W1VOS36.88-36-7-7)

Minecraft: 1.21.32.2

The game crashes whenever I tap any text input field, including:

- Chat

- Sign editing

- Anvil rename

- World seed input

The issue happens in every world.

I tested with Gboard and another keyboard, with and without resource packs, and the game still crashes. Restarting the phone or force stopping Minecraft only fixes the issue temporarily. Other Android apps work normally; the problem only occurs in Minecraft.
