Repro
1. Login to Salesforce1 on an iOS device.
2. Navigate to a VF Page with input fields.
3. Press and hold on any text input box. Once the cut/paste/select menu appears the input is locked up until you remove focus from the input and tap back in to try again. Nothing can be entered when the input is locked even though keyboard is still activated.
Workaround
Add the following line of JavaScript to the bottom of the Visualforce page:
window.onkeydown=function(){window.focus();}
