Hello guys,

I am right now writing this text on my BT keyboard on a Jolla 1.

I wanted to send some messages through WhatsApp and Viber. Unfortunately, the BT keyboard layout "german" is only working in SFOS, but not in Android. Where can I change this? Is this possibly a bug?

I can't even pair my Logitech K380 with my J1 anymore :(

Sailfish inputs present themselves as a "hardware keyboard" to Android, so you might need to change the Android hardware layout in Android's Settings, but I forgot how it works on 4.2 JellyBean (my Sailfish daily driver is a XA2 with an aliendalvik running 8.2 Oreo).

Alternatively, try to change the on screen virtual keyboard layout in Sailfish, maybe it has an impact?

@DrYak: Good idea, but I don't know where the switch is on the Android side. There is no impact on the software side.
