Cannot type symbols in password on Q10

Open kalifg opened this issue 11 years ago • 8 comments

When connecting to a host and it asks for my password I can press on my sym key and the symbol keyboard displays, however when I select a symbol it does not seem to be entered (no dot appears for it) and I get denied login because of the incorrect password. Please let me know what I can do to help!

Hey, I am told this happens in other Android apps as well, and I've reported it to Blackberry. Can you confirm whether or not this happens elsewhere?

Thanks!

This happens in the text box where you enter the host name in BSSH as well‎.I just tried the eBay app which is an android port and it let's me type symbols. I will try some others and get back to you.

I just tried with text entry fields in AntennaPod, the other Android port app I have installed. It also seems to work fine with the sym keyboard. Please let me know if there are any other apps you would like me to try out!

It looks like SimpleSSH only supports the tablet, it won't show up in Blackberry World for my Q10.

I did just happen to get a PlayBook, and I installed SimpleSSH on it. The keys that would be on the sym keyboard do enter fine on there. It's a touch keyboard though as opposed to hardware so I don't know if that helps.

I do have a Z10 that I could try if you think it would help as well.
