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?

If you changed your DPI it won't work. Had to change mine back. 425 seems to be the best.
Yeah Keyboard and Phone are both from Germany. And I have change DPI now it works for the left side ( a is a, s is s) but k is the delete key now... Any other suggestions? Thanks!

Are you using the Samsung keyboard on screen as well or a third party?

I face the same problem with you. I am using the S8+ Hong Kong version and keyboard cover from Samsung US in Amazon.

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.

I've had my touch pro for a few days now after upgrading from a wm6.1 Tytn II but no matter what i try i can't get word suggestion to come up with anything when using on-screen keyboard. I've gone through all the settings i can think of. Anybody else having this trouble?
Same here. Tried in the regular settings, as well as in Advanced Config, but to no avail...
Ok here is a fix that i found. When you turn on the on screen qwerty keyboard you have to switch off t9 and switch it to abc. This has worked for me for both on screen and hardware keyboard. Hope this helps

Standard keyboard does have any word completion dictionaries installed for the Diamond or the touch Pro.
If you want word completion, you need to use the full QWERTY htc keyboard, not the standard WinMo keyboard.
Problem persists...
Turned off T9, switched to "ABC", ans I am using the hardware keyboard. The same problem persists. The black line still appears at the bottom of the screen, when I type something it appears both at the "correct" location plus on the bottom black line. If I make the mistake of using the keyboard arrows - crash boom bang. A lot of words appear near my cursor. And the funny part is that I always have to read my SMS before sending it: this magnificent auto completion method somehow finds a way of adding unwanted words somewhere in the message body. It is *very* annoying.
I don't always use English when I type a message, and, horror: sometimes I even don't use punctuation, because I'm in a hurry.
Did you try to go in the T9 options and untick everything, and go in settings -> Inout -> Word completion and untick everything as well?
Full QWERTY and T9 on for me works!!!
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
sent from my LEE Pad Transformer........I wish
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.

Are you positive it's a problem with the keyboard rather than the touch screen?
Brought to you by time and relative dimensions in space.

To find out if u hv problem with keyboard or ur touch(as suggested by badwolf :thumbup: ), enable show touches option in development options under setting and check.
My last Samsung phone was S2, since than i have used several Sony's and LG's and i have used to brilliant default keyboards with long press symbols and i cant believed it when i sol default keyboard on Best phone S7 - no option for this, no customization's, nothing.......

Too hot? What do you mean?
And Samsung's keyboards have always been terrible.. The first thing I do is change them.

Samsung Keyboard uses SwiftKey prediction anyway.
Samsung keyboard is actually my favorite. It's the only one I can find that doesn't do key pop-ups (Very distracting for me), shows a number row above letters, and has long press for symbols. Every other keyboard is missing one of those 3 features for me.

I have a Galaxy Note 3 right now (Waiting for S7 pre-order). Samsung keyboard was stock. The long press for symbols works by default. Symbols show as a smaller font above each of the normal keys. The number row at the top doesn't have any symbols. Didn't have to change any settings for that behavior.
I used the Wanam xposed module which has an option to add symbols on my Tab S2 and S5
Im using stock keyboard and i do not have the long press for symbols either, nothing in settings to enable it either.
I think only the US versions have the long press symbols.
I also use the sammy keyboard with note 3 and it has the long press option. It's a great keyboard, IMO. Hopefully they haven't changed it.

swift key suchs it dont support japanese/chinese, and samsung do
I have symbols option under keyboard layout settings.
If you want 'long-press-symbols' to show on the samsung keyboard, go to keyboard settings -> customization -> keyboard layout -> turn on alternative characters
You'll get the 'long-press-symbols' by doing this
