Description of the issue:
Brave freezes when the first typed letter in the address bar is “D” (either lower- or uppercase).
Android keyboard (GBoard) stays popped up at the bottom of the screen, it keeps reflecting any further changes, like typing more letters, or deleteing the initial “D” back. However Brave’s address bar does not anymore, until it finally closes/crashes*.
*Seemingly it continues running in the background, opening it up again restores the previous state, but it starts up with the Brave logo, as opposed to when I simply minimize the app.
How can this issue be reproduced?
- Start Brave from scratch (was not running in the background)
- Tap the address bar, type either “d” or “D”
- The above described symptoms can be observed
Expected result:
Not to freeze, but keep working?

Additional Information:
I thorougly tested it, by going through the whole ABC. It doesn’t happen for either letter as an initial, except for “D”.
