        I have a redmi 4x, when I connect the keyboard via the usb port, a notification about the layout setting appears and the corresponding icon is displayed, but when I press the keyboard, nothing happens. How to fix it?

          I have just done some testing :

          • Grabbed my OTG adapter for micro USB port phones.
          • Connected a Mouse : Works! 😄
          • Connected a Keyboard : Works! 😄

          For the keyboard I had to go to the notification and select a layout first so I went with my usual favorite : English International with Alt Gr Dead Keys

          After that went into the Language & Text Settings and indeed : It showed the sub-option called "External Keyboard" 🙂

          Was able to :

          • Press the Windows button to open the Application Drawer/Apps Launcher
          • ALT+F1 to do the same.
          • Esc to close it again.
          • ALT+F4 to close stuff! 😄

          Soo... I guess it works on a BQ phone without any issue! 😉

          My phones :

          • BQ Aquaris E5 HD Ubuntu Phone Edition - Ubuntu Touch 16.04 LTS
          • ZUK Z2 Pro - ZUI Android 8.x
          • Xiaomi Mi 9T - Jolla SailFish 3.4.x Community Build

          P.S. : I am NOT a developer! ;)

            @pzrnqt1vrss That port s marked as inactive and very little info is avialable https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/santoni/ so can only guess this has not been sorted yet. I would try to contact the porter for advice.
