It's the same problem on the (french) virtual keyboard of the Nexus One:
a-z letters are working fine but numbers and punctuation does not correspond
when typing.
There's also no (classic) Alt button with a virtual keyboard: maybe using
double clic
on trackball?
Control (trackball clic) and Escape (menu clic) works well.

Same problem on the HTC Desire. Also, some special characters replace too much.
Such as
When typing "Hi :D" it turns out as "Hi:D". Note the removed space. Also, all
special
characters aren't where the on screen keyboard says they should be.

Confirmed on the Moto CLIQ physical keyboard.
Punctuation that requires the "ALT" modifier does not work.
No separate row for numbers on the CLIQ (only the G1 is that lucky) so need ALT
modifier operative for numbers.
Also needed for punctuation.

Hi, I'm just a random person who happened to stumble upon your project. Here's
what I found. (tested on original Droid)
The alt keys on the physical keyboard are all messed up. The characters typed
don't correspond at all to the markings on the keys.
Also, the right shift key is mapped to ctrl. In my humble opinion, the menu key
would really be better suited for this.
Lastly, the right alt key doesn't work. Which isn't a big problem. Maybe it
could be mapped to the computer's alt key?
Aside from that, it appears to have no other bugs on my setup.

I'm not sure if this is the same thing, but when my default keyboard on desire
froyo 2.2 predicts words, my pc doesn't recognize it.. Also swype keyboard
doesn't work when 'swyping' and backspace doesn't do anything

Client: RemoteDroid 1.4 on Froyo on Droid Incredible.
Server: RemoteDroid Server 1.4 on JRE 1.6.0_21 on Windows 7 64-bit
Virtual keys that do not work at all: @#*?/_"'-+;€£~=\[]|
Virtual keys that are not mapped properly: :¥¡¿<>
Also, secondary characters when a key is held for a couple seconds are not
usable with RemoteDroid.

The Swype integration im working on fixes many of these keys and allows keys to
be captured more accuratly:
Currently supported keys once I commit: @#*?/_"'-+;~=\[]|:¡<>
Adding the foreign keys shouldnt be a problem when using Server R2, which will
allow raw natives keys to easily be sent to the Server using a 2 parameter
keyboard event.

It's the same problem on the (french) virtual keyboard of the huawei 8230 :
a-z letters are working fine but numbers and punctuation does not correspond
when typing. Can we change it in the config.xml files, and how ?

emleroy17, If you wouldnt mind testing this new version im working on 2.0. It
is designed to be Swype compatible. It uses a hidden textinput to process
actual text rather than keypresses, so it should work on any virtual keyboard
layout. It hasnt been tested on a physical keyboard, but im using it on a
regular basis with Swype and its solid. The menu button has been remapped for
some possible features, so it just brings up a menu that lets you hide and show
the virtual keyboard.
If this fixes any issues for anyone let me know.
v~2.0 with some minor changes to enable more Swype and Virtual keyboard
compatibility. This is NOT A RELEASE VERSION, please use at own discression.

Most symbols seem to be working now, except €£|¥¡¿. (I can live without
that set, though.)
Now there's two new problems:
1. There's no feedback when pressing a letter key. The letter should pop up on
the screen when typed. It works for numbers, but not letters.
2. It always returns to the main character screen after typing a number or
symbol which is kinda annoying when you're trying to type a series of numbers.

Wernicke81, what virtual keyboard are you using. It would seem to be a virtual
keyboard bug if a character is not giving feedback when typed.
Its possible a feature could be added to provide visual feedback from within
remotedroid.
The non ~102 key keyboard keys like €£|¥¡¿ are difficult to implement. I
dont know how to map keypresses to them, ive even tried emulating ctrl/alt
sequences with no luck, but I think many people in this project are looking
into 'symbol' keys, so hopefully we will have a fix soon.

Hi There , I'm currently working with remotedroid on different Android devices,
the problem as listed before is that none seems to get the key layout fine,
leaving us, users,without the correct key scheme. Symbols such as "@" and
others are not working, while others are just fine but need to be associeted
to the correct key. I would love to know if someone got the droid dext or the
samsung galaxy spika to output an "@"...

I have a new HTC Evo Shift 4G and I'm trying out your application. The mouse
works great and so do all of the basic letters on the hardware keyboard, but
the "?" and "." (non-Fn hardware buttons) do not register. I have tried the
2.0 build posted above and that fixes the ? and . but the shift and function
keys do not change the key codes sent to the server. So, if I try to press
Fn-q, I should get a "1" but instead it sends "q". Same with Shift-q, shows a
lower case "q". The build above did fix the inverted two-finger scrolling
problem I had though.
I love being able to use this as a mouse for my media center PC and can't wait
until the keyboard is fully working. I'd be happy to try any new internal
builds you have. Thanks.

I am having similar problems with my Galaxy S. Letters work OK, but a lot of
the punctuation and numbers do not. The period character does not, for instance.
Possibly helpful information: I don't know if this is just due to the fact that
I purchased the Galaxy S here in France, so it was initially in French language
mode. I switched it to English, and for the touchpad keyboard I can switch
between French, English and German. But when I use remotedroid and try to type
a number, what I seem to get is what I would get on the upper row of a French
style keyboard. This means symbols or accents, such as é where a 2 normally is
on a US keyboard. On a French keyboard you have to use shift to get the
numbers. But with remotedroid there is no shift available when you are in the
number input mode, so I do not have that option. This behavior remains
recardless of whether I switch the keyboard to be English, French or German - I
still get the French keyboard symbols instead of the numbers.
I tried the 2.0 version mentioned above, but this seemed to have similar
problems, and added another: if I switch to inputting numbers, I could tap on a
number and then the keyboard would revert to the alphabetic keyboard. So to
type a long number would involve constantly having to hit the button for
inputting numbers.
I would be happy to test new versions - I really like this application, even
with the bugs!

Even with apk 2.0 I can't write accented words or question mark. My phone is an
HTC Dream with Cyanogenmod 6.

I already submitted an issue (#73) about this specific keyboard, but Hacker's
Keyboard seems to be problematic. Englush/US, every key works fine, even the
hyphen (which is more than I can say for PRemoteDroid), but certain functions
requiring more than the basic keyboard set (such as the function keys) and key
modifiers aren't working.
For people who want to enable specific keyboard events, the present fix for
this in Linux systems is to install xautomation/xte and define key macros in
launchers. For Windows, AutoHotkey might allow for something similar by
producing key events in a program that runs, does the assigned task then
self-terminates.
