I've not used my Shield for a couple of weeks and when I came to use it, my logitech K400 keyboard has developed a problem. I can't seem to be able to click on anything. My trackpad works fine but if I try and click on an app or action, it doesn't respond to the left mouse, right mouse or even space. I have to move the pointer to the active point and press 'return'.
Not sure what has changed.... all I can think is that my barmy bulldog pup has trodden on the keyboard a few times.....
Maybe try switching your IME? Go to Settings/Keyboard.

Im using the 8125. Rom 2.xx
If i use the slide out keyboard, most of all the buttons are messed up.
if i press "i" it types ".i"
if i press "c" it types "ce"
if i press "g" it types "lg"
I basically cannot use the slide out keyboard at all. This was happening even when i was using the older ROM version.
I tried to use the keyboard remapper program AEKMap, that didnt work.
The SIP keyboard with the stylus works fine. I checked all registry entries and they all show up as US locale. The only thing i can think of is I use a magnetic phone holder, does anyone think that a magnet will screw up the keyboard ????? Any other suggestions???
sounds like that is a hardware malfunction, not software.
If you're under warranty, take it back.
If not, you're going to have to take it apart and see if you can find a loose ribbon cable some where.
Yeah, i figured its probably a hardware issue. I was just hoping someone had this problem before and fixed it without opening up or returning it.
I just got an Atrix a few days ago. I did the webtop hack and paired both my MS bluetooth mouse and Apple bluetooth keyboard. The mouse works fine. The keyboard would only type numbers as if the NUM LOCK was on. There's no obvious NUM LOCK key on the keyboard at all. Spent forever trying to find a solution and finally got one on a Ubuntu forum.
Press FN and F6 twice to get out of NUM LOCK mode! Works like a charm now. Just have to do it every time you get into webtop mode.
Hope this helps those who have these keyboards and want to use them with webtop.
nice one
nice one mate. you just helped me solved a massive problem. now to sort out the apple mouse. for some reason, it would connect but it wouldnt pair. was about to sell the keyboard. life saver
I purchased a Logitech bluetooth keyboard for use with the Note 10.1. Initially I was excited, but that excitement turned to irritation when I realized that my typing experience would be constantly interrupted by the words "English(US)". After some trial and error, I quickly found out that it was cased by pressing the key combination Shift+Spacebar, which activates the Samsung Keyboard's language switcher. Apparently, I hit this combo every time I capitalize an "i" when typing quickly.
After some trial and error, I found a decent solution. I downloaded the 4.2 Google keyboard, and problem solved (Initially I tried a number of other virtual keyboards, but each of them didn't play well with the quick FN options of this keyboard, and I was searching for full functionality). This also removes the full word deletion feature of Sammy's keyboard, which begins deleting entire words when the backspace button is pressed for X-amount of seconds), which I find to be very annoying.
The only problem left happens when reconnecting my bluetooth keyboard, which causes TouchWiz to default back to Samsung Keyboard. Fortunately, the virtual keyboard can be switched back to Google's with just a couple taps.
Anyways, hope this helps.
As you guys all know, the LG G2 doesn't come with a physical keyboard. Ever since I paired my home bluetooth keyboard with my G2, it seems to think there's a physical keyboard. Whenever i reboot the device, physical keyboard is turned on and the soft keyboard doesn't pop out when I need it. I have to keep disabling the physical keyboard manually.
This is quite an annoyance, which i don't think is limited to the G2 as I previously noticed this on another Chinaphone running JB. Then I had worked around this by using the Hackers Keyboard from Google Play that had a setting to pop out the soft keyboard even when physical keyboard is present.
What can I do to have the physical keyboard not be enabled by default? (supposing that unpairing the BT keyboard resolves the issue, I would prefer not having to do this).
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi all,
so I have my Yoga Book - Windows version - for several days now. I am very happy with this device however there is one issue with the keyboard I just do not know how to solve - except for connecting external keyboard.
In general use its fine but it does not cooperate with games - you can not use key combinations (wd;wa,sa;sd) to move. As soon as you press "D" while holding "W" the keyboard stops sending continuous imput data. You can hold "W" and tap "D" to move right strait right (not forward/right) but it is a single imput... you can not hold "D" for continuous imput while holding "W" at the same time as in normal keyboards.
This seams very strange to me as you in fact CAN hold several key for continuous imput just not the character keys. For example: shift+W (2 keys) will give you continuous imput of capital "W" and crtl+alt+v (3 keys) will give you continuous imput of "@" sign. Clearly the technology supports multiple simultaneous "key" press, it just does not behave like regular keyboard.
I believe that this is an issue of halo keyboard's drivers but I might be wrong. Anyone have any glue how to solve this?
You can use the micro-usb port and bluetooth to connect an external keyboard

Well........ obviously. I know that, but you certainly do not have external keyboard all the time. I mean... it kind of negates the point of having 2v1 tablet/notebook if you have to have external keyboard anyway.
Hey,
so after few more test I found out that the same issue applies to arrow keys as well - meaning no diagonal navigation in file explorer, table documents or navigation services (google maps). So I have contacted customer support - long story short I should do factory reset or send it to service centre.
I am still convinced that this is the issue of drivers so I was wondering... could anyone with Yoga Book test this issue?

This is indeed an issue, exactly as you have indicated. Factory reset / sending it to the service centre will almost certainly be a waste of your time.

Thanks for the info.
Anyone else? The more the merrier

That sounds a like reasonable problem to me, I am guessing that this is not a real keyboard and they probably tried to make it simulate on screen keyboards which most of them do not properly support multiple modifier keys thing. I do not have a way to try this on the android keyboard but the ctrl modifier seems to work.
I just wished that the pen and the keyboard worked at the same time. So I do not have to constantly switch.
Please, take a look at my post, I list a few files you can modify to change the behaviour of the keyboard/touchpad:
