Flex 4.6 mobile broke TextInput

Question

I'm currently in the process of upgrading a Flex 4.5 mobile project to 4.6 and have run into issues with TextInput's.
Currently on most of my views you cannot click(tap) a TextInput and insert text. The field does not seem to take focus and no text appears when you type. I've tried this on a phone as well as on my computer. The weird thing about this is that I have two views where the TextInput's seem to be working. I have also removed all code, MXML and AS3, from a view where input's don't seem to be working and replaced it with a generic TextInput. Even after doing this the text field doesn't seem to be working.
I have tried to reproduce this outside of this project but can't seem to be able to. Anyone have any idea what would be causing this?

I have the same issue but isolated in a very simple app. I havent tested it in Android, but in iOS it is VERY Buggy...
you just need to have this to reproduce:
