As I need another languages to type, I have to use 3rd party keyboard apps such as smart keyboard, go keyboard or multiling keyboard.
However, from JB stock, those software keyboards stay on screen with slid out hw keyboard. This is really annoying, but I didn't find any way to mitigate this. Weird thing is that google/stock keyboards don't have this problem, only 3rd party apps are impacted.
Also, CM10 and stock ICS don't have this symptom, only stock JB is problematic. Not sure whose fault is this, but obviously some mismatch is happening around keyboard...
Even the swype in the market is bad, pre-installed swype is working as expected...

OK. So I just just got a BT keyboard, which does not come with Android software (the packaging marketed it for iPhone). I think the brand is "FunGear", but that might be a no-name / Shanzhai / OEM thin. Anyway...it works pretty well. I just wrote out a 3 page business proposal on my Samsung SGS (with Froyo) at Starbucks using the keyboard.
However, there seem to be some bugs. When I use the keyboard, my phone tells me I need to use the default Samsung Keyboard. Its pretty basic. Furthermore, there are weird things that happen, like:
*it stops responding when Gmail does an auto-save
*sometimes it goes into all cap-lock mode and won't get out until I hit that on the screen.
*some characters seem wrong.
*there is screen down / screen up alt keys, but they don't seem to work.
The keyboard uses what's called the HID profile.
My question is: is there a utility or software keyboard which was made specifically for working with bluetooth keyboards which allow customization?
I havn't come across one but rather i found a edited keyboard.xml file that helped with my kb and its custom keys.
When im typing on my phone, it usually works fine for a little then starts to lag and some keys i press dont work... i dont know if this is a problem with the touchscreen or the software. if i lock the phone and unlock it, usually it will work. so im hoping it isnt the keyboard. is there a solution for this?

I have noticed this bug on sense 2.1 roms. If you rotate the screen it will switch keyboards and fix it and you can just rotate it back. I have never experienced this on 3.0 and higher sense roms. I think its just a bug on 2.1.
Also it has been a reported bug on CM7 roms, I believe its CM7 roms or maybe older versions too. There is no current fix. Some users just use a keyboard from the market like swiftkey or something like that. Its an app you have to pay for, but seems to get rid of the issue.
I ran into a similar issue last night when I was typing a post on another forum. My keyboard lagged greatly and then just stop responding for a few seconds. However it seemed to only happen when I was in my browser typing on the forum page. It was happening on Dolphin Browser and the stock browser. I tested it with three different keyboards (Swiftkey X, Gingerbread Keyboard, and stock Sense keyboard). All lagged. Restarting didn't resolve. The lag did not happen with other apps like GO SMS, Twitter, or Facebook. Nor did it happen on a couple other websites I tested on. I noticed when I turned off the vibration, or lowered the vibrate time, the lag lessened. I'm thinking it's an issue with memory or processing speed, but I have no idea how I would test or resolve something like that.
I'm running ARHD 6.1.5, only slightly OC'd.
Now that I think about it. It sounds like all 2.3.3 based roms have this bug, aosp or sense.
I have a problem with my touchscreen that sometimes it doesn't respond at certain areas on the screen. For example i can not type some letters on the keyboard. I have to lock and unlock to get the touchscreen working again.
Did anybody ever experience something like this?
Used to experience that. Not sure was it the rom or 3rd party keyboard. But this was a long time ago and have not experience it since.
Currently on codefirex with swiftkey.
If you are using a 3rd party keyboard app, try using stock. If not try a different rom.
Last time it happend I was using Swiftkey as well and it happend on different roms.
Maybe it is a hardware issue? The point is that it happens rather rarely. Only every few days.
But it is also not always the same area on the screen that is blocked. Very strange bug..
Hello,
I've since the update 10.5.8 and 10.5.9, I've got miss typing on the edge
When i'm typing a word starting on the edge/curve screen, the word is in 2nd position instead of 1st position :
meme => emem
pq => qp
aux => uax
autant => uatant
qd = dq
This is like pocophone when the phone get out there was a touchscreen bug for 6 months then they've fixed it so no more reverse letter
Now it's a regression from OnePlus because on previous firmware i didn't have any issue
I'm on stock rom just rooted and BL unlock
I'm the only one ?
It's happening the same to me. I'm going to try another keyboard app, I'm using Gboard.
Stock ROM here but not rooted.
Edit: it only happens to me if using Gboard, but it works fine with SwiftKey. Try it.
I've used touchpal on my old phone and with oneplus i wanted to used stock app (now i liked it, it's very difficult to change )
i've tried swiftkey and go keyboard and i've still got some miss type but not as much as gboard and i don't really like it
But this happen since latest update only with 10.5.7 i have no issue at all

I tried SwiftKey yesterday but I don't like it as I cannot switch from Spanish QWERTY keyboard (with Ñ) to Portuguese QWERTY keyboard (with Ç). Gboard can do it...
I think we have to write slower til Oneplus fixes it... :silly:
Yeah, i've open a case since 10.58.0 but we have so much isssue with google stuff
also Chrome freezing issue

But I think is some Google related problem. I was owning a Huawei P30 before OP8 (since more than a year and until 2 weeks ago) and Google Chrome was freezing also there (the trick was going to homescreen and then open Chrome back again, that fixes it temporary until another freeze hahaha). So I don't think that's related with OP8, but not sure.
I've uninstall Webview android so it's stock one and i don't have that much miss typing...
I didn't install the update from play store but for the mom i'm staying like that
I have this problem even when using other keyboards

And what does Android Webview have to do with this keyboard issue?
Another one with the same problem. It seems that this issue is fixed with Swiftkey but I don't like it at all. I've contacted with One Plus support but the only solution that they gave me was sending to RMA.
I've tried with the Android 11 Beta 2 but the issue persists...
oh double post
Really ? They may change our screen for this issue ?
This happen since 10.5.8 update before that I've didn't have any issue.
It's like a driver issue.. but it's seems we are only a few people who are affected by this issue
They can change with 8T for me
My issue is similar to yours. The error appears when I press "ai" or "qi" quickly or with two thumbs - the result is "ia" and "iq" even though I believe I pressed "a" and "q" first. On the edges of the screen, there is a small delay in input. The problem isn't unique to physical edges, as all "a" and "q" buttons can be delayed even if they are not directly pressed on the edge. My conclusion is that this confirms the existence of a software bug. Is this something that can be fixed? I find it quite uncomfortable to type with two thumbs. Would it be possible to change this? It is on a Nordic keyboard, and "q" and "a" is located right at the screen edge. There is no difference in the problem no matter what keyboard I use, including Gboard (despite its small buffer between the screen edge and the leftmost key). For practicing typing, I found a free online typing test tool to see how fast you type. Also, it will help you remember the keys. It's an easy and enjoyable way to check your typing skills.
Is anyone else having trouble with their keyboard settings (samsung keyboard)? I keep having to reset it to Floating Keyboard. Quite frustrating (as is everything after the OneUI 3 update). Any advice would be appreciated.
Buddy , use gboard, it's better than Samsung keyboard
