Hello,
I bought an USB On the Go cable to connect a Physical keyboard to my galaxy s3. Problem is that when i touch characters like = ( ) ; on my keyboard i always get different characters that should now be there.
I dont know if if help, but the keyboard i have when typing on screen is swiftkey.
Any idea why this characters are messed up?
thanks
Check your keyboard language settings. It might have been configured as UK keyboard. Change it to US keyboard instead.

Thanks for the reply, i tried that but still not working.
I am from portugal, so i tried putting the keyboard laguage to Portuguese but i still get wrong characters.
For example SHIFT + 0 should give an = sign but is giving me a ) sign
Are there any other tips that might help with this prob?

HI,
I've recently installed russian rom from i-mate on my wizard. However, I have a problem with the sliding keyboard. The problem is that when I start typing using the slide out keyboard it types in latin letters (English). However, once I press the dot key (key used for changing to symbol typing) it starts typing using cyrilic letters (russian). And then there is no way to change it back. Only the soft reset can change it back to latin(english). But after pressing the dot key the problem occurs again.
Is there any way to be able to change the language back to english? Or remove the russian language at all so that I could always use latin letters.
Thanks
I downloaded a Korean language pack and keyboard and changed all the settings to enable it, but it will only work if I'm not docked to the Asus keyboard. Is there anyway to enable to the keyboard while being docked and press the keys on the dock to get it to type in Korean? (If it matters, I did the steps in the "multiling keyboard") On a regular laptop, I can change keyboards seamlessly despite the physical keyboard being in English (just memorized where all the Korean letters are).
Just as a note, when I try to use a Korean keyboard when docked it says: "Change to ASUS Keyboard to keep consistency with hardware keyboard". The ASUS keyboard doesn't have a Korean option though.
Anyone have a solution?
Where did you get the Korean language pack?
bump for interest

Would you try the following step to choice language?
setting -> language & input -> configure input methods -> active input methods
My keyboard dock is working perfectly - well, at least in terms of the keys not freezing or the touchpad becoming unresponsive. However, I do have one issue with it. Some of the secondary symbols on the keys (such as the @ sign, the hash tag) don't correspond with what appears when you touch it. So, for example, when I press the @ key, I get quotation marks instead, and when I press the hashtag key, I get the backslash sign.
Does anyone have this problem?
Is the @ symbel Shift-2?
Sounds like your keyboard is set to the UK layout. I don't have my TF yet, so I can't tell you exactly where, but change your language/regional settings to the US layout.

Yep, that was the problem, actually needed to change it from US to UK. Anyhow, appreciate the help..
OK .... am i doing something stupid ? settings are all set to UK keyboard but SHIFT + 2 gives me @ whereas the key says it should give me " .... a couple of other buttons are screwed too .....
when you dock with the tablet you have to select the on screen message for asus uk keyboard if you dont like me who uses the android or thumb keyboard then you get the us keyboard,if you select the keyboard button on the bottom of the screen then select asus uk it will make the dock keyboard asus uk

cheers makes perfect sense now
Um..... No matter what I do the 2 key has the @ not the ". The physical key has the two marked as ". What should the British keyboard have there?
Same, the new update seems to have fixed it.

The British keyboard has a " on the 2 and the @ is by the right shift button.
I had to delete all 3rd party keyboards I had installed before it would work.
Just selecting the ASUS one as the default would not work for me.
nope. just click on the keyboard icon if/when it appears in the status bar (it seems a bit hit and miss) and you can then set the specific keyboard type for the hardware keyboard
Yeh I had the same problem before I got the keyboard update tonight. All fixed now.

Hey,
I have a strange issue with Keyboard Cover connected - it looks like there is missing a row in the keyboard. When I type Enter it gets the € sign, if I press "q" it makes an "s" if I type "s" it makes "a" .
Anyone knows if this is a faulty hardware keyboard cover or just a stupid software bug / error from me?
Thanks!
Are both the keyboard and the phone from the same region?

Same here, not working G9500 (China/HK Version Dual Sim SD835) with german original Samsung Keyboard, is not working.
Does sombody know what to do to get it working correctly? Is the a deamon/service missing inside the rom?
Thanks in advance
Just wanted to chime to confirm that I hit exactly this same issue: I bought a SM-G9550 Samsung Galaxy S8+ 6GB RAM (Hong Kong Snapdragon 835 version) and the keyboard cover does **not** work with this model.
I tried both a QWERTY and a german QWERTZ keyboard cover and had the same result: the phone acted as if there was no keyboard.
I did get a confirmation that the cover was detected: If you hard reset and then start the setup process with the keyboard cover attached, you get a message saying "To start setup process detach keyboard cover from device". So it definitely **is** detected. But then when you finish the setup, nothing.
For those wondering, I've seen a cover working on a normal S8 and the experience is pretty much plug and play: you add the cover with the phone On, and it immediately reacts, popping up a quick intro message with keyboard tips. It also adjusts the home screen to pull your shortcut bar above the keyboard, and you get a line of suggestions immediately above the keyboard. If that's not your experience, your cover is not being detected properly.
