When I received the 4.1.1 update, I was pleasantly surprised, so when I got the message to update to 4.1.2, I was equally excited. However, that faded rather quickly as I found I had two new problems:
1. Autofill of fields no longer replaced text in a field, but appended the text. This devastated its use in entering usernames on web sites, as they would always fail.
2. Google Play will suddenly close the first time when following a link from an email in the email client
3. S Voice no longer understands voice instructions
Has anyone experienced these problems or more since the 4.1.2 update?
Does anyone have any guidance on how to resolve, if they are not due to the update?
Is it possible to roll back to the 4.1.1 update?
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
No it isn't possible to roll back to the previous version of the OS without voiding the warranty.

Same here. I've called both Verizon & Samsung a few times each and got different stories. But I did get at least 1 person each at verizon & samsung that HAS heard of this problem. So all I can hope for is a quick patch.
I've had some trouble with the default(Samsung) keyboard after the 4.1.2 update. After typing 4-5 words, it crashes and I get the error message. I've since used different keyboards(Swipe and GO), but I was so used to the default it's been annoying.
I can build on your list the update has caused. My department has several users of Droid Razr Maxx, including my best friend. He downloaded the update first. It:
1) Erased all his contacts (which he did have back up fortunately)
2) Erased all the notes he created with the Notes Widget from the previous version (Note widget no longer in 4.1.2)
3) Erased about 80% of his photos, all his videos
These issues are identical to those of my co-workers and myself. In my case, I began having issues with my Droid Razr Maxx when I would choose not to download the update:
1) start typing in the browser and the cursor would jump around to the front of what I was typing
2) Dial phone numbers and an emergency window would open
3) Apps starting opening randomly
Okay, I gave in, downloaded the 4.1.2 update, and:
All the same previous issues
4) all photos wiped
5) all notes wiped
6) all contacts wiped
7) all downloaded apps gone
😎 BATTERY LIFE VIRTUALLY LOST. I use to charge every 2 or 3 days, I now had to charge daily
9) Swype not working
10) Txt typing would yield different characters than what was being type; the letter "A" was always a "$"
11) Got to Facebook and would type, but no space would appear between words anymore. If you spaced between words, all the words were capitalized
12 ) Phone would get hot, very hot
13) I dropped my phone and cracked the glass, but no bid deal, I could still use the phone. I contacted Asurion. Meanwhile, phone kept having the same issues
14) one night got so hot had to remove from my hand and the phone died
I now have a replacement with 4.1.2 and it's already starting to do all the same things.
I've lost any faith in Motorola and Verizon took no real interest.
My department is no looking to replace all 24 of our droids razers with either iPhones or HTC and different carrier
