Android, StageText and the soft keyboard

How to keep the soft keyboard opened? I have a simple text form (1 text field as StageText, 1 button and a scrolling area, similar to sms chat application).
Click on the button or on the scrolling area causes a focus lost in StageText instance and the soft keybord closing (it causes app resize and other problems).
I tried various variants with assignFocus() function, using events SOFT_KEYBOARD_DEACTIVATE, FOCUS_OUT, MOUSE_DOWN.
Also, I tried to call assignFocus() with pause and several times during some period, I tried to move focus to other field and so on...
It was working partially if I created enterFrame event with assignFocus(), but it makes soft keyboard buttons to work very slow and soft keyboard closes when I remove enterFrame event.
This problem is for Android only, iOS version works just fine with MOUSE_DOWN -> assignFocus().
I'm using Flash CS 5.5 and CS 6, AIR 3.2 and AIR 3.3 beta and HTC Sensation with Android 2.3.5 for tests.
Also, I found that SoftKeyboardType.PUNCTUATION is not working with Android soft keyboard.

There are definitely some bugs with Android/textfields/softkeyboard.... there's an already existing bug I'm trying to get people to vote for in regards to textfields on Android. Hopefully once (if ever) they fix this bug, other bugs related to it will go away as well.

I just bought an android phone and the previous owner of the number had an iphone and imessage wont work, how do I fix that?

I just bought an android phone and the previous owner of the number had an iphone and imessage wont work, how do I fix that?
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S4, and my wife has an iphone. We found out that imessage wont come through from her. After we went to the AT&T helpdesk they said that she could turn off imessage on her phone and that I would get texts on my S4. But then so would everyone else who has an iphone. That won't work for everyone in my company that has an iphone. So what I am wondering is- since I recently got this phone, should I get a new number? Or should I contact ATT or contact Apple to try and get this number de-activated? I'm thinking I'll never get into the icloud account that this number is attached to, but maybe someone has some advice on that?
I just sincerely want imessage to work on this phone and I'm willing to take the steps to do that.
Please help

Either one of the two should work - getting new number from carrier or contacting Apple to revoke phone number from imessage system.
That is if your problem is described correctly.

Android L and the Galaxy s5

Here is a Look at the Android L and the Galaxy s5 working together..
http://www.droid-life.com/2014/10/02/android-l-for-the-galaxy-s5-gets-an-8-minute-video-preview/

from what ive read the only official 5.0 released in oct was the SDK the final source code was released in nov. samsung devices have started to get 5.0 in polland. verizon should have samsungs version of 5.0 for final inspection/modification by now and should be close to rolling out. would be nice if the carriers here didnt keep the updates a secret, so verizon feel free to share when you plan on pushing it to devices. customers wont care if you have to push the date back as long as you keep people informed instead of in the dark. htc has a device running 5.0 already and their 90 day guarentee will mean other phones have it by feb 2015. any hint from verizon would b nice

Why does the soft keyboard pop up on my screen and how do I stop it?

Older MacBook Pro running Lion.
For reasons I don't understand, when I start typing after not using my MacBook Pro for several minutes, a soft representation of the keyboard pops up on the screen. I kill it and it goes away. But then appears again later.
I switch between the MacBook's keyboard and a USB keyboard -- in case that is related.
How can I get this to stop happening?

After some trial and error (which I could not do over the weekend) it appear that the thing appears the first time I use either keyboard after using the other. Example:
Use the native keyboard, all is ok
Use the USB keyboard, get the popup
Use the USB keyboard again later, all ok
Use the native keyboard next, get the pop up
This is a recent change. I have been using two keyboards like this for years. It didn't even start after my upgrade to Lion. I can't put my finger on what was going on when it started. If I could, I could probably figure out the cause. But I can't.
I just want it to stop.

Since the latest download the soft keyboard lags BAD when typing,especially if I' m in a browser and trying to reply to some post. It's lagging as I type this, though not as bad as usual. Most of the time it is effectively useless it drops so much.

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

Use the soft keyboard in a mobile application

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/mobileapps/WS82181550ec4a666a39bafe0312d9a274c00-8000.htm l

Communicate with the soft keyboard on iPad

Hi guys, I'm using Air 2.7 CPU mode... I've got some code that calls a contact form within a movieclip to the stage on my iPad app... works really nicely and I've also got a button on screen that then removes the contact form from the stage.
Unforunately if you're in the middle of typing in a field and press the close form button, the ipad soft keyboard stays on screen and so does the text that's been typed.
I'm wondering if I can communicate with the ipad keyboard to make it go down. I'm hoping I can somehow communicate via actionscript with the small button in the right hand corner of the ipad keyboard which makes the keyboard leave the screen.
Thanks, Mike

Does anyone know if you can target the second keyboard screenon the ipad?
For instance, I was playing around with a Maths learning game, where the user would input numbers only into
an input box.
When they click on the input field it would be great if it went straight to the keyboard numbers tab, to make it seamless.
Thanks,
Matt

When i boot my mac it opens with a grey screen and the wireless keyboard, mouse illustration and won't do anything elsens,

When I turn on my iMac (27" intel) all I get is connect my wireless keyboard and mouse on a grey screen. The mouse will connect (sometimes) after I wiggle it a bit, but nothing from the keyboard. After a few minutes the disk utilities box comes up. I ran permissions and repair permissions, verify and repair on my computer and it tells me everything is ok. But it won't let me past this screen. Any suggesions? Help!?!

Hi Grace Be,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The articles below may be able to help you with this. I've summarized some of the key points below for you. Click on the links to see more details and screenshots.
Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
Disconnect, test peripheral devices and network cables
Note: "Peripheral devices" refers to external devices other than what came with your Mac, such as hard drives, printers, or hubs that you connect via a USB or FireWire cable.
Shut down your Mac. If necessary, hold your Mac's power button for several seconds to force it to power down.
Disconnect all peripheral devices such as external hard drives or printers (leave only the display, a keyboard, and mouse connected).
Disconnect any Ethernet cables.
Start up your Mac.
If you can start up this way, one or more of your peripheral devices (or installed software related to the device) is probably causing the gray screen issue. Connect one device, then restart your Mac to test for the issue. Repeat the process until you locate the device at issue. Check with the manufacturer of the device for support or possible software driver or firmware updates that may be available for the device. Try a different cable with the device if possible (such as a different USB or FireWire cable).
If you are using a desktop Mac with a third-party keyboard and/or mouse device, and the issue still occurs, try starting up with an Apple keyboard and mouse connected instead. Try starting with no keyboard and mouse connected, then connect them after start up. Also, try a different USB port on your Mac.
If the gray screen issue persists with no devices connected, go to the next section (with the peripherals still disconnected).
Perform a Safe Boot
Shut down your Mac. If necessary, hold your Mac's power button for several seconds to force it to power down.
Start your Mac, then immediately hold the Shift key. This performs a Safe Boot. Advanced tip: If you want to see the status of a Safe Boot as it progresses, you can hold Shift-Command-V during start up (instead of just Shift).
Note: A Safe Boot takes longer than a typical start up because it includes a disk check and other operations.
If your Mac starts up as expected, immediately try restarting.
If the Safe Boot does not work, or the restart after a successful Safe Boot does not work, go to the next section.
Reset the NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac. If necessary, hold your Mac's power button for several seconds to force it to power down.
Reset the NVRAM / PRAM.
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Dvorak and the Apple Keyboard

Apple makes it easy to switch keyboard layouts, but not when it comes to the physical layout. 'Bout the only way to do that is by finding stickers with the letters and symbols on them to stick on the keys. And that's where I'm running into difficulties. Where do you find the **** things? I remember sheets of rub-on letters and symbols people like wargame designers would use for mock ups, but I haven't seen them around recently. Would anybody know what I'm talking about, and where I might find something like that?
Nothing like a keycap please. Such things are over produced and over priced. Not only that, for the Apple Keyboard they're also over sized. It gets confusing typing dvorak when the layout is qwerty.
Thanks for listening.

Guess what I went and did? Had an idea and googled the phrase "keyboard stickers" Got pretty much the same results you two did.
The skins you found links to I aint gonna touch. I'm not about to pay $35.00 to fugly my keyboard. There are bonafide keyboard stickers out there however. I did find keyboard stickers at Amazon. I'll be checking out some of the local computer stores where I live to see if they have anything. to see if they have anything. My thanks for the assist.

I have a Mac Book Pro with the Sub Keyboard and the sub keyboard has kicked in

The numbers under the letters are active and I can not type using these key letters which makes a wireless keyboard the only way to have this in a normal way. .
The keyboard works right on the Mac side but the problem exists with the Windows bootcamp. How can I turn off the sub keyboard part and have a normal keyboard?

ajfcrf,
I’m afraid that I don’t understand what you’re asking. What is a “sub keyboard”, and which numbers under which letters do you mean?

Mobile Android Printing and the HP OJ 8600 Pro

Good morning all.
I'm trying to understand something and this may be more of an Android question than an HP Officejet question. But now that the two worlds are almost one, let me give this a shot.
I bought a new HP Officejet 8600 Pro. What a nice piece of gear replacing a fairly new Canon that jammed up. I've gone through all the set up and the printer works fabulously through wiFi with all three desktops and my laptop. I've established an account at HP's Eprintcenter.com and registered and validated my printer there.
When it comes to my two Android devices however things change. And I know Android has it's own special brand of "hell" for anyone attempting to printing anything - that's why I bought the 8600 thinking that it would be a piece of cake. Example: I would like to print on-line coupons from my wife's Acer Iconia A500. So the coupon site says the "browser is not supported" but ePrint has a feature where you email a link to your email client. I emailed the print link to her Android/Google email. But then, when I clicked that link on the Acer, the printer responded with a one line URL to the coupon, not the coupon itself. I figure there must be a setting somewhere that converts the URL into a print job. But I can't find the setting.
I don't blame the HP OJ at all! But - What am I missing?
H

Hello, and Welcome to the HP Support Community!
When you open the ePrint app and choose "Web", are you saying that is when you get the "browser not supported" error?
If you can save the coupon via a screen capture on the tablet, perhaps you can send that picture to the printer via ePrint!

I have tried several published methods for using umlauts but none have worked. I have used the IPad 2 with the screen keyboard and the Logitech keyboard, all to no avail.

I have tried several methods for using umlauts but none have worked. These include the screen keyboard and a Logitech keyboard. I tried pressing and holding an o for several seconds then (while holding the o down, pressed the o umlaut in the pop-up screen with no results.

Instead of using a second finger to press the umlaut while holding down the o key try this:
Tap and hold on the o until you see the alternate choices then slide your finger up to the umlaut.
