Hello, Iris.
Firstly, forgive me for not answering you sooner. I didn't want want to
waste any more of your time with any more unusable patches. This was a
tricky bug to solve, and indeed only the third patch attempt was
satisfactory.
I have now committed this third patch, and would ask you to remove the
patch I sent you a few days ago, and update your Emacs to the current
master version.
I am closing the bug with this post, but if you find any more trouble
with it, would you please let us know, so that we can open it again.
Thanks!

Hi everyone, this is the first time I report a bug.
In order to reproduce the bug I did exactly the following:
1. Start emacs: emacs -Q
2. Paste the following code in the scratch buffer:
(defvar box-cursor t)
(defun test/set-cursor()
"Set cursor in all frames depending on the active state."
(interactive)
(dolist (frame (frame-list))
(with-selected-frame frame
(if box-cursor
(progn
(modify-frame-parameters
frame (list (cons 'cursor-type 'box)))
(modify-frame-parameters
frame (list (cons 'cursor-color "#00A9FE"))))
(progn
(modify-frame-parameters
frame (list (cons 'cursor-type 'hbar)))
(modify-frame-parameters
frame (list (cons 'cursor-color "green")))
)))))
(defun test/enter-minibuffer()
(setq box-cursor nil)
(test/set-cursor))
(defun test/exit-minibuffer()
(setq box-cursor t)
(test/set-cursor))
(add-hook 'minibuffer-setup-hook #'test/enter-minibuffer)
(add-hook 'minibuffer-exit-hook #'test/exit-minibuffer)
(server-start)
(make-frame)
;; Call M-x (execute-extended-command) and you will see:
;; It is not possible to write in the minibuffer
;; Killing the previously created frame seems to solve the issue.
3. M-x -> eval-buffer -> RET
4. M-x (The bug appears, it is not possible to write in the minibuffer)
Note:
As soon as the new frame is destroyed, it is possible again to write in the
minibuffer.
