Hello,
I use my transformer with and often without dock. If the tablet is undocked, I use the SwiftKey Tablet.
As many of you know, the dock keyboard is only working, if the asus keyboard is selected.
Is it possible (is there an app for that?) that the selected keyboard under android change, when tablet and dock are connected?
Best regards,
timscha

You could make a simple script or app which detects the dock being plugged in and automatically changes the keyboard, as I'm pretty green I don't know Exactly how to do this, but google and android sdk are your friends. Maybe someone knows? Sorry I couldn't help more
Hi timsha, i made a little app for that : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1607148
(Btw : it is not for changing the virtual keyboard, but for changing the layout of the dock, you need to be root, but you can use any virtual keyboard, like swiftkey, after that).

I often find that I can't do simple text box typing from Google web search as there is no response from keyboard dock input.
I get this only in Chrome.

No problem with Chrome, here.
I heard a lot about this problem. People believe this is a Chrome's bug.
I use Firefox and Opera, no problems here.
It's a bug chrome or dock don't know. Swedish characters also does not work this is only in chrome.
it's working fine here as well
Strange, no problem here. Using a stock Infinity with just plain old Chrome. Works like a charm. If it means anything, I'm using the TF201 dock, English, and my software keyboard is Thumb keyboard.

Keyboard mouse cursor won't click on folders or bookmarks - have to use touchpad buttons - otherwise OK.
It is definitely strange, it is working once again, but at times it will bug out and the only I'll notice is when I change my Google search results and discover that I cannot input anything into the search box. The only way around it is if I enter my search criteria in the Chrome address bar.
I'm too using the TF201 tablet that is a carry over for when I had Transformer Prime.
I'm having the problem too. With chrome and a number of other apps as well.
Hello, since the update to JB using the hardware keyboard in some applications has become a nightmare as the result of keypresses is all but the correct key on my french keyboard/dock.
typically I see this when using:
* Connectbot once connected to y home server
* Terminal IDE
Only letter keys do as supposed all rest is FUBAR !
for example numbers which normaly require "SHIFT" are obtained without "SHIFT"...
* Facebook (no backspace !!!)
Of course everything works in software keyboard...

I'm not sure about the first few problems but if you want to fix the backspace problem, you should switch to stock Android keyboard instead of using ASUS keyboard.
Numbers requiring shift? Now that i've never seen.
You sure the keyboard is still set to french? Because numbers working normally is the non-french setting.

Yes I'm sure... As I said this behavior only happens in some apps...
I've contacted the dev of Terminal IDE and done some tests with him, for now no progress on undestandig what is wrong.

Hm, I suspect those apps only recognize the international QWERTY layout and not variants thereoff. As such, your tablet automatically picks the international layout for them.

That does seem like a plausible reason. Funny thing is in ICS it worked, so there has to be some change from JB that the app is not responding well to.

Try this see it makes any difference, go to settings and change your default keyboard to Android keyboard instead of Asus
The new update fixed it. I've just tested the French, UK and other languages, the keyboards are back to the layout they are supposed to have.
Install the new update.
Just did and:
* still a no go for terminal IDE
* corrected for Kingsoft Office!

so when i use mt bluetooth keyboard i get a popup saying i need to change to samsung keyboard to use it. if i click ok or press back it will change the keyboard. this is annoying because my samsung keyboard is regional i.e. uk and my bluetooth keyboard is us the same as thumb keyboard (the onscreen i use) so when it changes keyboards some of the symbols are different.
so my question is, can i stop this from happeing?

Wanting to know the same thing - or even if any of the custom ROMs has this "fixed."
The app External keyboard helper pro allows you to set the language, so you can set it the same as your other keyboards and it has some other helpful settings too. Maybe this is what you're looking for?

Not sure, might try it out. I never had these keyboard issues in ICS and was hoping I was just missing a setting. Have you tried out this app for this purpose? Does it work well?
Is there any way/app that can change the input method when docking and undocking the keyboard? I prefer to use swiftkey flow when undocked but the keyboard conflicts with it when docked. has anyone found anyway to get round this, without having to go into settings etc? thanks
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using XDA Premium HD app
I haven't heard of 'swiftkey flow', only SwiftKey itself (hated it for a 10.1, I want to turn off all suggestions and corrections when I have a keyboard big enough for normal typing.), so if I misunderstood, ignore me
While you're at a point where you can type, a small keyboard icon appears in the notification bar in the lower right corner. Tap it and select the correct keyboard.
I don't know if there's a way to do it automatically (isn't there a setting in swiftkey somewhere?)
Also, are you using the right swiftkey version? There's a tablet version and a normal one...
Flow is the newest version,i never liked it before, but flow is much more like swype. I haven't found any setting to do it, but an automated way would be awesome XD

If you're rooted you can use Tasker with the Secure Settings plug in. I use it to assign different keyboards for different apps, and also to switch to the stock keyboard when docked...
There's also Keyboard Manager in the Play Store (but I prefer Tasker):

Hi,
I'm looking for a app where i can handwrite and the text conver for digital text (like Samsung S-Note).
After some search i've found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2098807
So my questions are:
1- Will this app work on Asus Infinity?
2- Will Asus made the update of this app to turn possible the text recognition?
Best regards,
VGCC
Just tried it. Works. Could also import my old notes.
But it is not optimized for the large screen. Recognition does not work.
The font is even smaller than in supernote 1.55 and I have not found any way to resize it or zoom into.
Otherwise it is much better than version 1.55
Well it works. It's sort of like Super note version 1.1. It's nice that you can draw and write on the same bit of paper without having to insert a picture you draw separately.
Problems? Screen is too high res so it doesn't fill it properly and I couldn't figure out how to enable handwriting recognition.
If they updated this for the higher res screen it would be nice!
Thanks for your replies. I've tried, but happens all the things you said. I hope that ASUS made the upgrade on next stock rom.
Best regards
VGCC

Try "7 Note with Mazec" from the Play Store.
I think, that is the app you are looking for. l am writing this with a stylus. The app is a little pricey, but worth it in my opinion.
you can take handwritten notes and convert them to written text later or as you are writing, and you can also use this app as a text input method wherever you have a text entry field: Gmail, browser, search etc.
It installs as a custom keyboard so you can easily switch between keyboard and handwriting. It also does predictions and seems to get better the longer I use it!
This is my favorite writing method if I do not have the tablet in the dock.
It gets even better if you also use Keyboard Manager. I have Keyboard Manager activate the stock Asks keyboard when the tablet is docked, Swiftkey when undocked in landscape, and 7Note with Mazec when undocked in portrait.:good:

Yes I have bought 7 notes. It is an amazing app! That and FreeNotes give you Super Note on steroids. :good:

Set your dpi to 240
I'll have to flash for that right? Or does clean rom have a setting I'm not seeing? Thanks for the tip I really want to like this app!

You can either reflash which isn't really a problem as you will keep all your settings and apps if you don't do a wipe. Just choose everything again.
Or you can edit the build.prop in /system. Use es file explorer to open he file as text in es note editor and edit the very last line. Reboot and you will be at 240.
Yeah no dice... Changed build prop to 240 from 224 and still show incompatible. Thanks for the idea though! Any other ideas? It's weird because the free version had no problems.

Maybe its not compatible with our resolution. Have you emailed the dev? I've only used it on a nexus 7
Just went to the Store and it works fine. CROMI 3.4 213 DPI
That was my next option. Thanks dude!
