Motorola Xoom :: Moto Bluetooth Keyboard - Letters Typed Repeatedly
Jun 30, 2011
I got a Wifi Xoom with 3.0.1 stock firmware (like if I could have it in any other version without voiding warranty) and I'm having some problems with my Moto BT keyboard. It connects well, pairs well, types well and without lag, but from time to time, when writing things longer than an URL or a login (for example an email) one of the letters typed repeats and repeats like holding it's key. It's quite annoying, and one of the times, the repeated key was backspace, so it erased all of the text.
After updating to new firmware via online. Whenever I type using the qwerty keyboard the letters do not appear in the box. Although they are there i.e. when I go back to message screen then what I have typed is there. Anyone who has same problems along with a solution please.
Sometime typed letters will erase automatically. i tried with all types of keypads (mini,hand writing, full qwerty, numeric) software version v50. v51 not available.
I have the Motorola Bluetooth keyboard and there seen to be a delay in the typing showing on the screen. mainly while in the browser. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a simple fix? Am I missing something? I do not remember this with 3.0.1 but I am not sure.
I have the Motorola keyboard and MS 5000 BT mouse. They each work well individually, however when used together, the keyboard frequently disconnects. When I go to a text field, the software/screen keyboard comes up instead of using the hardware keyboard. If hit a few keys on the hardware keyboard, then it seems to reconnect and I can continue using it. It disconnects again once I leave a text field. I'm using a 3G version of the Xoom, but without 3G activated, so just using WiFi.
Well a couple of months ago, on bbm, if I was to type a message it would delete what I was saying and randomly change to symbols instead of letters, and it would be stuck on alt. Recently, I have not had the charger for three days, as my brother took it, so my phone was dead for three days. When I got the charger back and charged it up, the keyboard wouldn't work, then it would go dead even though I am pushing the button that turns it on. And the only way it does turn on is when you charge it but it lasts for 5 seconds literally. The weirdest thing is the light is still flashing?
I'm having a new problem where when using my keyboard at random times even when I purposely type slow keys are being hit twice without me hitting twice so i will get 2 spaces or 2 of one letter...
This only started in the last week or so. This happens on Swiftkey, stock keyboard and others...
Moto droid: I have had the droid since the release, and all is well except that the keyboard doesnt lay down like when it was new, and seems to get worse with time,The adhesive seems to be gone from letters a to k on the top 3 rows and from the alt key to the @ key
Just wonder if there is any fix.I searched the forum but didn't find any solutions (wrong keywords possibly) Thanks in advance for any "useful" advice or solution
I have the Moto X 2nd gen, and I have been having several issues with the phone, mainly I repeatedly have a "Google Apps" popup saying that is not responding and asking me to report the issue. I get these error maybe 3-4 times a day and restart my phone when the issues doesn't die down.
Also, my phone stops responding at certain times and it just stutters along.
Is this my phone or should I do a factory reset? Also, will the 5.1 update fix any if these issues, I hoping not to have to restore to factory default.
This is my first post here and i am here to discuss the topic i have in my mind. It has been long time while i am planning to buy this motorolla mobile. But there is a doubt in my mind would there any plugins need to install in my hand set to download movies or watch?Link removed by forums manager.

Every few days texting takes on a life of its own, starts randomly and rapidly composing nonsensical strings of letters and words which I cannot stop. The X/erase button does not work. Putting my finger within the text results in green trails. I must turn off or restart my phone to stop this behavior.
Have had the phone about 2 weeks; only added 2 apps - weather underground and pedometer which did not affect the phone at time of adding them.
I close my apps faithfully, having learned to do that when my phone started flashing webpages rapidly as well as the text feature going wonky.
Also, some text messages have to be downloaded to read them.
BT keyboard with touchpad. A keyboard is nice, but I would rather not drag a mouse around as well? I know that fruitpads have had problems with some of the keyboard touchpads. Do they work on Xoom w/Honeycomb?
quick question since this is my first blackberry and all.I noticied the other day that the little bump that is on the d key lost some of the black and now has the white light shining through. Its not really a big deal just wondering if the keys fading on the blackberry is a normal thing?
I seem to have this keyboard lag when typing in text box in the browser. So far I've tried this very forum, composing new message on gmail, and on Facebook.
I have noticed some interesting quirks and am hoping it is an issue of operator error.Some text input fields in web sessions force all uppercase letters and disable the backspace key when using the BT keyboard.While I type this with the famed MOT BT keyboard I had to copy and paste the text into the title in order to get lower case letters.Also, in this message field I am unable to type a nine or open parens but can type both in the title field. Also the arrow keys act like tab keys and will not move the cursor.It is especially frustrating as anytime I try to send a message in Facebook the keyboard forces all caps and disables the back button.Not good for someone like me that types 100WPM with 88 mistakes.
Also when I turn on my Miscrosoft BT 5000 mouse the keyboard starts to go nuts with repeating keys and constantly disconnecting.When I turn the moust off the keyboard is okay except for the issues listed above.
I'm typing the numerical web address for my media and noted there isn't a colon. i swear there was one before the 3.1 update. Is it gone, or is it so obvious i can't see it?
I am experiencing a problem in Skype and a pre-release version of Smart Office 2 with the keyboard on my E6 (as yet without Belle refresh). When I type in lower case within the numeric field, instead of letters I get numbers and symbols.The phone is working perfectly otherwise.
I'm currently using a Bold 9900 under T-Mobile. The phone repeats the letters "n" and "m" nonstop. If I leave my phone down, it would show "nmnmnmnmnmnm" after a minute. The keyboard, trackpad, and unlock buttons are also not responsive. I've tried the batter pull numerous times, and it has shown improvement once (I was able to type in my password and go into the home menu). Soon after that the problem returned. The phone just seems half dead and its reponse to my actions are random. Sometimes I'm unable to unlock my phone even after pressing the unlock button numerous times.
I did go to a beach with my phone. But there was no water or sand damage. It was in my hotel room the whole time. as the phone is completely unuseable right now. The screen works, but I am unable to press any keys to unlock/use my phone.
The letters Q W A Z are all mixed up! When you press q you get a - when you press w you get z and visa versa! I have already had to send this phone back the the supplier on Amazon once I really dont want to have to do that again...
I try to buy an app from AppStore. To confirm the payment, I have to write in my password (both letters and numbers). The keyboard that pops up has both a number and related letters on each key, but no other 'special keys', How do I toggle between numbers and letters to write my password on this type of keyboard?
I have xperia u20i, and have a problem when trying to change my locale language and region ( croatian)...When i switch to Croatian , the letters y and z are switched (when i press z,the phone write y,,, and when i press y,the phone write z..)
Can anyone tell me how to get my SMS settings back to UK. I have been onto Locale/Text but nothing is happening! I have English letters but have Korean symbols to change text to numbers etc. and lost the bar above the letters giving me word suggestions etc. I have switched off, removed battery and sim but still reverts back. Have TP Korean Keyboard icon but cannot remove or manage application.
