I'm running Android Things 1.0.4 on a Raspberry Pi with a Touch Display and the soft keyboard is never displayed, even when giving focus to an input field.
For instance, in the wifi system settings I cannot enter the SSID password.
I found this question: How to show soft keyboard on Android Things?. But when running the command:
ime enable com.android.inputmethod.latin/.LatinIME
I get a "already enabled" result:
Input method com.android.inputmethod.latin/.LatinIME: already enabled
What can I do to make the keyboard show up?
Actually the keyboard didn't show up because there was a plugged USB device (NFC reader) which was obviously considered by the system as a hard keyboard.
The soft keyboard worked again after unplugging the device.
