Mine does that too!
Does anyone have a problem with favorites being deleted?

I don't have this issue, but I don't use the stock Contacts app (I use iContacts: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402724 ), though even when the stock app appears when I click "All People" in the TF3D People tab, hitting r does nothing other than start filtering contacts. I have a 10/18 build w/ stock ROM. I also installed PocketInformant, though it isn't my default Contacts app.

perhaps somehow icontact has altered your system in a way to stop this bug...

IContact does not fix anything. The only time you have this "R" issue when you initiate contact via manilla.

+1 for IContact in general though. Awesome app.

Wow! thanks for posting this. I thought I was going crazy.

I've been having various "problems" with my touch screen - I thought I was just having trouble getting used to it.

My phone seems to randomly dial people, but now I realize that a lot of them must be because my boss' name starts with 'R', as do several friends. This explains why my friend 'A' (the first contact) gets dialed a lot.

That, and I keep accidentally dialing people when I scroll thru contacts, get the endless scroll, tap the screen to stop it, but it actually selects a contact and dials (I must tap twice - I can't figure it out).

Anyway - at least I know it's not just me. I honestly was starting to consider that this phone is not for me.

Wow this is an interesting bug. Does this happen on the Diamond? Or the Touch?

3. Open up Soft Keyboard (mine set to full qwerty)
4. Press 'R'

I remember I had this problem once and did not mention anything in the forums, I tried t reproduce it again now after I started reading this forum and it does not happen with any letters, I just installed TF3D Conf and I have HTC touch original theme installed (HTC_Black_v193_1.2b). I know this theme changes some registry things and stuff maybe it will work with yours and if not then it is some software that I might have deinstalled lately.

I also select people on accident while scrolling. It's because the touch screen isn't sensitive enough... something with their makeshift means of making it flush--or something...

I wonder why they did it fine on the original Touch, but not on the Diamond or Pro...

Have people with this problem reported this to Sprint? I called last week and they advised me to swap out phones at Best Buy. I did that and have the same problem. Both times when I called Sprint (original phone and to let them know the new one is doing it), they said this was not a reported issue.

Not sure how these problems users call in about get escalated, but I suppose the more people calling in about it wouldn't hurt.....
