Wrong characters when typing on ARM
Dear all, I have installed Musescore 2.0.2., rev. 3543170 on my Android tablet with ARMv7 (Prestigio MultiPad 7.0 HD Duo) using chroot and Ubuntu with wily suite. When I try to type using a standard Android keyboard, I get wrong characters from the keyboard ("b" instead of "s", "Backspace" instead of "5"), looks like some encoding is not right. Can you please advise what to do? Thank you

Where do you type? In the score? or it's also the case in the New Score wizard?

Is it only the case with MuseScore or other software behave the same? What's your system language and keyboard layout? What's a "standard android keyboard"?

It is only with MuseScore, I checked with other software (Tuxguitar) and it was typing correctly. My system language is Czech (in Android), but when I changed it to English, it was the same. By the standard Android keyboard I meant the keyboard preinstalled with my Android version 4.1.1. When I tried other keyboards (like Hacker's keyboard), they all typed the same incorrectly (Backspace instead of 5, etc.). Thanks for a help
can you try typing in with a bluetooth keyboard and see if musescore receives input correctly or not. That would help differentiate whether it is specifically the Android Keyboard at fault, or if it is maybe how your chroot receives inputted commands, or something else. (As an aside, I don't think you have determined yet that "ARM" specifically is necessarily at issue... In fact, I'm able to use keyboard input on my ARM chromebook running arch linux).

Hi, unfortunately I don't have Bleutooth, but I tried it with a hardware keyboard connected through OTG and it was exactly the same (e.g. Backspace instead of 5, etc). You are the right, I don't know, if the issue is ARM, I used the description "on ARM" only to diferentiate that it is happenning on an ARM tablet, not Windows desktop where it works for me Ok. Thanks for a help

thanks for trying via OTG... That means now we can say it is not just the *virtual* keyboard that is experiencing your issue.
