default keyboard

i searched all over and cant seem to find it, if there even is a way. is there a way to change my default keyboard to a different one?
thanks in advance
What do you mean? When using the on screen keyboard, you want to set a particular input mode to be the default?
like during texting i want to have PCM keyboard as my default so i dont have to keep selecting it. is there a way?
I know that you can remove some of the other input options, using Sktools or PocketTweak (freeware)
you could always remove all the other options from showing up, so the only thing that shows up is the one you want.
with sktools you can set default sip - BUT sometimes it crashes...
there is an app called "sip change" try my search function in signiture

Possible to run mortscript on keyboard slide (to set to COMP IME, for EzInput issue)?

Anyone knows if it's possible to have my X1 run a program or mortscript everytime I slide open my keyboard?
Well, ok, seems I just need to add the script to \Windows\StartUp for it to auto-run. Thought supposedly by having this portion of code in my script I'd get it to execute PART A when the keyboard is slided out (since it'd be in landscape) and PART B when the keyboard is not slided out.
Code:
While (TRUE)
If (Screen("Landscape"))
PART A
Else
PART B
EndIf
EndWhile
But after implementing this, my TF3D doesn't seem to be loading anymore. Anyone know where I went wrong?
Anyone can help? Thought to use this to solve the function key issue with the HTC keyboard.
Thought to bring this up again since more people are starting to use EzInput 2 but encountering the problem with the function key on their hardware keyboard.
As the solution is to set to COMP IME, my idea is whether it's possible to have a script run such that it'll be set to COMP IME when keyboard is slided out, but set to XT9 when the keyboard isn't.

"enter" key won't function in terminal emulator

Hello, thanks for reading. I am having trouble with the default terminal emulator on my rooted MyTouch running Cyanogen's latest build 4.2.11. Commands typed in terminal do not execute using the "enter" key on the soft keyboard, although entering them with the other keys appears to function as would be expected. Any ideas to get around this. Using other terminal emulators works fine, I just don't see the use in having multiple apps doing the same thing if the default should work. If I set an initial command in the app settings it will execute that. Any advice is appreciated thanks!
try "better terminal" (free version) or press the "ball + j" for emulating the enter-key.
regards,
U.
Hi,
I've got the same problem with my CyanogenMod 4.2.11.1 ROM as OP mentioned. Are more people experiencing this?
Also there isn't a "better terminal" free version on the market, but I'm guessing it doesn't make too big a difference which application we use for the terminal, right?
Cheers,
DT
Touch input
if either of you are using touch input try going to locale and switching back to the android keyboard. I had this problem just yesterday and this seemed to resolve the issue.
Hey I have the same issue.
I switched back to the original keyboard and now it works
However I cannot enter numbers now :S
Anybody else have this issue?
Thanks for the suggestions
Thanks all for the suggestions, I didn't even think that I was using an alternative keyboard. Here's what I found:
@Woodguy: ball as in "trackball+j" doesn't do anything for me whilst using the Touch Input keyboard but does when using the original. thanks for the suggestion.
@Budgetkuts ans Jazz: same here orig keyboard works fine.
So has anyone figured out if Touch input keyboard works on the original emulator yet? It just seems silly to have to emulators, one for each keyboard?
Ok this is strange - Using the touch input keyboard I have to use trackball + j for enter and then it works.
The enter works on the Android keyboard but not numbers lol
What is going on?
I use ball + m as enter when using the HTC keyboard with the terminal in CM.
Ball + m
This works great. Odd that enter key wont work. Anyhow it works great so thanks for this post.
Trackball+ 'J' is the key
Thanks everyone for the suggestions sorry for the delay...just like me to get what I need and not acknowledge my resources. Thanks!

Remix player no hardware keyboard support?

I have downloaded and run Remix OS Player on two different computers now and neither one of them has captured my hardware keyboard, I can use the onscreen keyboard but that really lessens the functionality and is half the point of having it run on a desktop. Can anyone advise as to how to resolve this issue? The options, advanced options, and the OS options are so dummy proofed it is impossible to do anything advanced. Is there config files I can edit or...?
I had this happen once right after installation and running the Google Play Store activator and couldn't login in to the Play Store because I couldn't type on the physical keyboard. I shutdown the player, restarted it, and then the problem went away. Might work for you.
Hi.
I have this too, regardless if I restart or not. I actually can't figure out what I have to change in language and imput options to have my keyboard back. The only thing I can do is using the virtual keyboard. I think this happened when I changed the language to french, or tried the virtual keyboard for the first time before then deactivating it. Since I can't find a reset config to default, I'm going to reinstall.
If anyone have a guess how getting my azerty hardware keyboard back, could he please explain ? I find the way the multiple language/imput options are displayed isn't very clear and whatever I do it doesn't work. I'm visibly not alone since this thread is already open, and it may be useful.
Edit : looks like the config files are not in the remix folder. After new installation in different folder, it's directly the same with the new separated machine.

There never was any actual ability to use the physical keyboard even though the settings say it's present. No amount of fiddling with the unintuitive settings seems to correct the problem. My keyboard is a Saitek Eclipse USB keyboard on Windows 7 x64. I imagine this must be a limitation of the emulator or some basic setting. The two systems I have run this on are very similar setups with the exception that the other one uses a PS2 mouse and keyboard. Shortcuts like CTRL + ALT to unbind keyboard and mouse function normally so why not typing inside the emulator?

I don't understand. Are you saying you have never been able to use your computer's keyboard ? Well sorry, you already said it sooner too. I didn't read it was the same person.
The thing is I could use it till two days ago, and I'm not the only one. I could type the physical keyboard at first start of the player without doing anything, it was default. Then probably messed up with the options I touched and can't have it back. RemixOS live or hardware installed have the keyboard detected and used as default. So does the player (except maybe you but it must just be that your keyboard isn't recognized or I don't know what.
Detection and options problem here. No lack in feature like I understand you are thinking.
I am saying that there has been not one moment I could use my computer's physical keyboard in Remix OS player, not for the very first initial run nor extracting it to a different folder, it works just fine on both computers for Windows use though. I am using the PS2 keyboard as I type this... I wouldn't think it would be difficult for the player to bind to a generic Human Interface Device or a USB keyboard... Both Mice work just fine so I figure it's just a bad config file or something. Hopefully someone figures it out soon as it's annoying to say the least.
Since I had it then lost it. Could one user or more, whose physical keyboard works since the beginning and who never changed anything to default config, screen all his/their language/keyboard relater configs please ? This may do.
Guess they don't care... oh well... Nox it is.
If this can help some people forced to use virtual keyboard too. After looking for a suitable virtual keyboard, I ended using Minuum Keyboard and Hacker's Keyboard app. The first takes the less place possible, and the 2nd looks like it has the better ratio between space used and easy access to all keys (it's sort of computer keyboard replica) ... waiting for this issue resolve if it is resolved a day, this will sorta do the trick ... But the problem really sucks.
@Saiber77 @dzeek @Esdeve - Sorry to be late with this reply. I did share your issue with our product manager and he's been working on a fix with the developer team. We believe we've isolated the issue to the Gaming toolkit causing some incompatibilities with certain hardware drivers and configurations. We're still in the middle of working on it but I'll definitely update when there's news.
@Saiber77 - And, we always read and care... just somewhat short on resources and we just finished a week-long public holiday here.
Thanks!

I just installed Remix Player on my Intel NUC and find that my keyboard is not recognized at all. I have a Corsair K70 keyboard that besides being an incredible mechanical keyboard works otherwise great under Windows 10. Hopefully Jide can provide a solution.
Wow, public holidays, devs know what it is and have that too ?
Whatever. I run on a laptop, but if you need info about hardware I'll give. Thought it's already done in the hardware thread. Sorry not being able to remember exactly since what action from me the keyboard stopped being recognized (and I don't think I tried the gaming toolkit, if I'm right about it being the d pad we can see on the right).
Hello. New user here.
This might seem weird but I also had the trouble of not being able to type anything inside the player (was trying to login to the Play Store but couldn't type in my email address). I can use the CTRL+ALT keys to get the pointer out and I see the pinch? option when I hold down the CTRL key. But when I installed the terminal/command window app, the keyboard began working inside the player (weird right?)

Since update said "Fixed keyboard input issue when key-mapping is activated"
Just to notify. It's not solved : still no keyboard.
Windows 10
Microsoft K830 Keyboard
I just found this OS; but like others crtl+alt is working, but nothing else. Hope it can be resolved so I can use the keyboard to play games
how can i enable virtual keyboard?
yea the keyboard outside American is pretty bad,my French keyboard here is not supported very well,but the player is still in early beta stage so can't complain here.there are better emulator .
The dev team has been alerted to this thread and the issues being expressed here. I'll update when there are either fixes, or if there's something you guys could help us with to solve these keyboard issues.
As for holidays, our devs work at least through Saturdays and some work Sundays as well. However, for state appointed holidays, it's illegal to order staff to work, so it's entirely up to the staff.
Thanks again!

i used to have the same problem, but i get to fix it making this:
- Open Remix Player
- Go to the last button on the white bar on the right side of the screen emulator (3-dot button)
- On the new pop-up screen, go to settings, and change the keyboard shortcuts option to Emulator Device ( default)
- Go and check if Remix Player can recognize Keyboard Input, if not, go back and change again the keyboard shortcuts option to Virtual Device and check if now Remix Player recognize Keyboard Input.
I hope that this steps can solve the problem for everyone.
psd: I don't know if it's needed to do this every time the emulator runs, if the keyboard is not working each time the emulator starts, then i assume that its have to be done this if you want to get to work your keyboard.
If you have the issue, can please try @starfoxcom 's solution?
We think this could be possibly fix the issue. We are trying to fix this issue fundamentally.
