Hi guys,
I got a very nice logitech k810 bluetooth keyboard, But every time i connect it to my phone it switches my input method to the samsung keyboard.
Even if i set swiftkey to default. It's quite irritating..
Does anybody know if i can disable this? Or maybe which service/package causes this then ill make an xposed mod myself to stop it.
Thanks!

Thanks for your response. However i just finished writing a mod to solve this issue at the root of the problem.
PS: Would anybody be interested in me releasing this mod?
It will stop the switch to the samsung keyboard when either using a bluetooth or USB keyboard or an dock.

I will compile one tomorrow. You will be needing the xposed framework, if you don't already have it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Manipur,
First install the xposed framework i linked it in my previous post.
Then install my mod (It doesn't matter if you switch these two around).
You should get a popup that my module isn't active (If you don't get the popup open the xposed installer application and switch to the modules tab)
"Enable XposedFreeInput"
Then reboot, Now when you connect an external input device is shouldn't switch the input method.
Let me know how it goes.
Tasker
A less elegant solution is to grab Tasker and have "Disconnect from BT keyboard" trigger an input selection popup.

Hi so sorry... Been busy a bit.
I wouldn't want to change my settings as of now. What I basically did was install an apk called keytest.
I already had external keyboard helper pro installed. I just remapped a few keys so that the keyboard doesn't change to samsung keyboard. On top of that I also added a keyboard map for the physical menu button so that I can launch it anytime I require.

U know what... I was slightly not comfortable installing the Xposed framework, because I don't have cwm recovery installed. My note 2 is just rooted using CF-Auto root method. So I can't basically make a nandroid backup. I used this method so that I can get OTA updates now and then by disabling root.
But the pop up to change to Samsung default was pretty irritating. I've tried using tasker to create a profile, but I couldn't assign the parameters. I took the risk of a bootloop and took the plunge, installed Xposed framework and installed your Xposed free input...and it works great. Now I don' t have to change my input method everytime I connect my wireless keyboard. Thanks to you man.
Sorry for being a little chicken hearted.

Cool thing about xposed is that you don't need CWM, Just root.
However i do understand your discomfort, I rooted my phone 2 days after purchasing it. The thought that i might wreck a quite expensive phone within 2 days (while voiding my warrenty) wasn't a pleasurable one indeed.
Anyway glad the mod worked, Now at least i can say it has been officially tested
Just stumbles upon this thread while searching for a solution to this annoying problem with input method switching (I bought a BT keyboard yesterday). Scalee -- thanks a lot for the module! I already use Xposed for a lot of other stuff, so that was a no-brainer for me. Just another proof that you can find pretty much anything here on XDA. If it's not here, there's a good chance it doesn't exist...
It works. Thank you so much!

Tried it on a samsung s4 with android 4.3 (rooted).
I had to uninstall it as it was causing 75% of what I type to be lost unless I slowed down to no more than a character or two per second.

Something got really hosed. Uninstalling XposedFreeInput and rebooting didn't restore the keyboard. I had to go back to a nandroid backup to fix keyboard input.
I don't really mind the samsung popup -- I just hit return on the keyboard twice to get past it. What really made me crazy was that samsung would reset the soft keyboard to their own instead of swiftkey. I ended up using tasker with security settings / system+ / input method to keep it set to swiftkey.
This App fixed it for me, but it needs root.
it fixed my problem, that the bluetooth keyboard would not be recognised from the SwiftKey. Now I can easily switch between physical and touch keyboard - Nexus 4 v4.4.2

Yup, I have a Note 2 - the OLED screen can be problematic for my artwork without toning down the red. I imagine I'm not the only artist to use a Note as a quick and dirty, extemporaneous and backup portfolio.
Sure enough "Screen Adjuster" which allows RGB color balancing also makes the Install button unclickable when directly installing APKs. Drove me nuts - always found a temporary solution - rebooting, stopping Play Services, clearing caches for Services and the Play app (plus Aptiode, etc.) but these were hit and miss. Turned it off and it worked without any other hoops to jump through.
Glad I came across this - I don't usually install APKs at this point as my Note 2's apps/uses are pretty stable at this point, but for those days when you have 15 Xposed Framework APKs to install... and. clicking! stabbing! the damn! install button. does. nothing. ...yeeesh.
Figured this out from an Phandroid thread that listed similar apps:
Easyeyez Screen Filter
Twilight Filter
...and other screen dimming filter apps. The post is long because it's been a hassle for a long time... and hopefully to make it a bit easier for someone to find, including the above apps.
God that was annoying. Now to fix my memleak/lag issues.
Rotation manager is causing this too.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2405849
Echo Lock Screen was the culprit for me.
Happened to me a few times I reboot and if that doesnt work then I clear the caches. Its been a while since I have seen that.
Wow unimaginable
This is unimaginable. Who could think something like a display app (Twilight for me) could create such a condition.
I checked and checked my security settings to confirm I have set the option "to install from unkown sources". I also tried various developer options, but all futile! Also tried rebooting the phone! Nothing worked :crying: until I hit this post! :laugh:
Lots and lots of thanks to this post. I can now turn of the Twilight app and install other apps.

@fernandovg did you ever find a solution or alternative app for this? if it wasn't for your post about this, i'd still be scouring the internet for answers to button functionality being broken. Also, did you experience any apps that you allowed to rotate not rotating? ie - i set chrome, youtube, reddit, any other app i may view video in to enable rotation so i can have full screen, but that function was broken too the app worked 100% for the first while i had it installed then just crapped out on me for some reason. I messaged the creator of the app for a response so i'll see where that takes me. did you notice malfunction around the time of flashing any roms with stagefright patches by chance? it's the only thing i can think of that was out of the ordinary that i did around the time i notice malfunction. thanks for your input.

Hi,
My friend also faced the same problem, and then he asked me if I could help him fix this.
Then I made some research, and finally I was able to find a solution to this problem.
Solution:
1. If you use any application "Screen Filter" , please disable the screen filter.
2. Then you try to install the application, then re-enable your screen filter. (It is up to you whether you want to re-enable or not, if enabled you should turn off your screen filter if you want to install an apk.
Press Thanks if I helped.

Here are some instructions on how to use Wifi Hotspot after you are rooted.
install Xposed Framework from HERE
after you have xposed framework setup, download Wanam Xposed from the Play Store and install it. Go into Exposed framework app, go to modules and check (enable) the wanam mod. Reboot.
After you are rebooted, go into Wanam xposed app, goto system, check "Disable tether provisioning. Reboot
this allows you to use hotspot without provisioning, but if you go to the verizon hotspot icon or configuration, it sees it and shuts it off. So we will add a hotspot quick panel icon to turn it on.
Download and launch SQLite Editor
1. Open up SQLite Editor - Select the Apps tab on top and scroll down until you see Settings Storage and click it
2. Click on Ssettings.db
3. Click on system
4. Click on the search icon on top right
5. Type in the word notification in the Filter Value field and click ok
6. Once the results load up, tap on notification_panel_active_app_list (should be the bottom result) and click on the pencil icon on top to edit
7. In the Value field, you'll see all your toggles listed. All you have to do is add the word WiFiHotspot <-- just like that, with the three caps, with a semi colon right after. Make sure there's no space after the semi colon. Once you add WiFiHotspot, click the save button.
8. Close SQLite editor and reboot your phone. Once your phone boots back up, you should now have the Wifi toggle in quick settings like mine below!
Now, to use it, click on the quick panel icon you just made called wifi hotspot. Hit Home so you go to the home screen. Dont go to the Verizon Hotspot icon or the Hotspot configure, just use it like that and it works good. Takes a minute or two to establish internet access after your computer connects but it works, I have confirmed it.
Good write yup bud.... @ForeverSupra says your an OK guy... I guess he's right... Lol

I have to admit that I'm not the most informed when it comes to wifi tethering, so sorry if this is a dumb question...
But does this prevent Verizon from tracking the tethering? The only reason I ask ask is that I still have unlimited.

I tethered this way since I got my Note 3 and been tethering ever since I had my Droid X. I'm unlimited also.
Has anyone tested Foxfi? I have used it with my previous phones when rooted but currently it pops up the Verizon subscription thing. Would I still need to check the "Disable tether provisioning" box in Xposed? Normally I just check the box within Foxfi to start tethering.
Sent from my hacked Galaxy N3!
doesnt this work without needing to use the quick settings icon? if you disable tether provisioning with wanam, then just open the mobile hotspot app you can click the home button when the "error subscription required" message comes up and tethering should still work

Yes some good apps and mods there,if you never wonder out of the ATT thread people probably won't see that thread,and haven't seen too many workarounds here but not too surprised seems like a lot of ATT users either switch carriers or are using T-Mobile varient with unlocked bootloaders.Once lollipop comes out we won't need root hopefully if we get all I've been seeing and reading.The quick click app is one of my favorites from that thread you can assign your volume button to do almost what ever you want,and have it listen when you want,I have it set up when the screen is on and locked to listen for clicks and 3 clicks up turns my flashlight on or off,great app.
Not wanting to root for simple app workarounds.. I want the full deal. Not even for ROMS. what about Greenify, or clearing out the preloaded apps. . Or not having this load up while booting. Changing colors of things and or Just using XPOSED MODULES..... . There are no apps in the app store or and apk that you can find and do, what xposed module does. . None. . If there are apps that allow me to do the things that exposed module does, let me know. No xposed modules itself. I'm talking about GRAVITY BOX and those other awesome apps inside the module. Tell me what I'm missing. . There is nothing that compares to being rooted. . No apps to relieve the hurt from not having root.
From veteran to n00b lol, feels like annoying fresh start with not being able to post in all forums after that many years @ XDA, but clean starts are good for you (really).
With some black magic and a lot of cash I decided to get PXL and thinking of staying clean (not rooted) this time.
I unlocked bootloader and flashed @franciscofranco kernel and that's all. As I can not post in dev thread, can a good soul explain if and what am I missing without root? I almost never change anything in FKU so anything else that is not there or there's no francos magic because of no root?
And yeah, I do miss Naptime. I know..
Thanks a bunch,

I am stock Franco rooted. If I unroofed there are four things I would miss a great deal. High brightness mode in FKU. It is key for using my phone for navigation on my motorcycle. Later on as he finishes development for our kernel I would also miss performance profiles. I like his power saving profile.
Ad blocking and themes are the other two not related to Franco.

man wish someone would have told me about this before I forked over 7 dollars haha. will try it and see how it goes!
Primarily I root for GMD Gesture Controls so that I can set up custom edge gestures for easy one handed operation using a bunch of thumb swipe gestures from either edge of the screen (and many more multi-finger gestures on screen). By setting up edge gestures I no longer have to reach for the back, home or recents buttons for example but beyond that I can pull up any other app or shortcut I wish to program to whichever gesture I choose to record.
Second to that would be a tie between Tasker and Titanium Backup. With Tasker I've got profiles ranging from audible notification when a bluetooth connectivity change occurs, automatic volume adjustment to a particular setting upon plugging in headphones (or another when in my car on BT) to setting up quiet times of the day or going to speakerphone when on a call and being set on the table face up. I've even got a profile to turn wifi on/off automatically based on my activity (off when i leave home and start my car, on after getting out of my car but only long enough to connect to work/home wifi otherwise back off). Titanium I use to freeze apps that I don't need and to back up all apps just in case an update on Play Store brings unwanted changes to an application (bugs or unwanted features).
Then there's other minor tweaks like Adaway, Greenify and QuickTile. Quicktile I am using to cycle through different display timeout settings when I want to hand the phone over to someone else to look at something, it makes quick work of switching display settings.
Lastly I currently am using Fingerprint Quick Action app to program powering off the phone with a double tap of the fingerprint sensor and to launch an app of my choice (LastPass in my case) on fingerprint scan once the phone is unlocked by fingerprint.
Also add a +1 for me for audio mods Viper4Android and Dolby Atmos.
I'm currently patiently waiting for Xposed to add further mods but for now I'm fine without it.
