Whenever I enter into a hangouts conversation I have to hit the back button 2 times before it will exit the conversation. Steps to reproduce:
Go into hangouts
Enter a conversation
Click the back button
Does it exit out of the conversation and go back into the list? I have to click the back button twice. But if I scroll around in the conversation first, then one click of the back button exits me out. And this only happens while the keyboard is attached and in use.
Edit:
Also, when typing a message and I hit the alt key to pull up the emoji tab, after I click on 1 emoji the emoji list automatically turns into the onscreen keyboard. I have to hit the alt key again to turn it back to the emoji list, and now it will work normally and let me select multiple emojis. Can anyone reproduce this one as well?
Simply a bug within the app, send a report to Google.
It won't get solved here.

I'm not asking for it to be solved. I'm just wondering if everyone is experiencing this or if it is just somehow on my end.

Sometimes this has happened to me and I was wondering on how to fix it and if anyone else has had this issue. Recently when I am in an app and I try to use my Hard keyboard if I press any of these keys it launches an app
(e - email
l - calender
p - don't recall.
g - gmail)
Anyone else see this ever. Usually I just use the onscreen keyboard when this happens and later it works again. This happened to me in the facebook app and also in dolphin browser.

Check Applications --> Quick Launch and see if you have any keys assigned to those apps.
It's my quick launch I think my search key was acting like it was pressed even though it wasn't. Thank you. Most have been stuck. Thank you.
It happens when you press the app key once by accident on the top left of the keyboard. Press it again and it turns off the shortcuts.
The app key? Which one is that? This happens to me a lot and I just mash on the keyboard until it goes away. I also am having problems with the keyboard not working at all. Sometimes I open the phone up and the whole keyboard stops working and I have to reboot the phone.
Also once I was on Dolphin browser and I was logging into Google plus and my numbers were acting funny. I could not press the ALT button to activate the numbers I had to hold the ALT then press the numbers. I thought that was weird.

Do you know any way to disable Quick Launch? Or maybe disabling all the pre-assigned things? --Do Not Want--
Thanks

Long press on the shortcut and it should give you an option to clear it.

The default shortcuts are the search button plus a letter. It happened to me once, and after pushing the search button on the top right of my keyboard a few times, everything started working fine again. Hope that helps.

Keyboard not working...at all
Hey all
CM11, official with apps installed the Captivate Glide physical keyboard is hit or miss. Since the physical keyboard is the WHOLE REASON to try to modify this older phone, its functionality is important. Physical keyboard ALT commands (#'s etc) do not work in any application. The letter keys works...sometimes. I have used default keyboard settings and have no idea whehter there is a fix on the main CM11 thread.
Many thansk!:good:
Alt is a non stick key

Well the thing is alt in cm11 is not a sticky key but its non stick . What i mean by that is that if you wanna type '1'. Keep 'ALT' pressed and hit the number '1' in blue on the keyboard. the alt key dosent seem to stick for some reason.
this is actually cause of the google ime treating our physical qwerty as a desktop keyboard i think where alt is also non stick.

"Alt" doesn't work at all -- even if held during typing. I will keep searching for keyboard fixes I guess. Since the keyboard is 100% of the reason to use the Captivate Glide, it's utility is a major issue. Many thanks for your reply!
One issue I have always had with Android is knowing whether or not pressing the back key will take you to a previous menu or close the program. Now that the back button is dynamic, would it be possible to create a mod where the back button turns into an "x" when it will close the program? I think this is something that should be part of ICS, but I also know that modders can do some incredible things.
I wouldn't get your hopes up. Every application is coded differently and it depends on the developer to what function the back button does. I think for this to work, hypothetically, you would need specially designed applications to include this feature.
You could have the button linked to environmental variable that always takes you back home, bypassing any specific app uses, however that would be redundant since you already have a home button. Other than that, I don't think there's another way to do it, definitely not dynamic since its up to the specific App. However, I remember on CM7, there was an option for SMS so that the back button always took you to the inbox, and not just quit, which I miss.
The application controls whether the back button moves you to a previous screen, home screen, or even exits the program.
Edit: Just noticed I repeated what everyone else said
If it were possible to mod Android so that the back button was unable to close apps, I would be very happy. Could this be done?

Don't think of the back button as closing the applications. Think of it more like the button triggering the app to close itself. It's an app specific issue, but not really an issue... Just use the home key!

Just an example using Google Music:
Listening to music, I want to go into the app using the widget or icon on a home screen. Sometimes it goes to the Now Playing screen, other times it will go to the Recent/Artist/Albums view. (Which is a whole 'nother issue I have with Android)
I don't wan't the back button to go back to the home screen, I want the back button to back within the app. If the system can be modded so that the back button never navigates to home, I think that would work for me.

Yeah I have noticed this with Google music. Hopefully Google will update this with a fix but understand it's not an 'android' issue its a apk issue.

Without a menu button on the device, how can you exit Google Navigation. The menu doesn't pop up? Unless I finish a route, how can I exit?
Hit the three lines in the bottom right of the screen. Good to see Google can't even follow their own guidelines

You can hit the back button on the phone and then a box will pop up asking if you want to exit.

The first time, when I had this problem, the back button just kept going back through the navigation menus, but not ending navigation. I ended up killing the app. Now when I try it, this works. Thanks!
This might be one the n00biest questions ever posted. But where the hell is the enter button on the keyboard? I'm currently in the stock text messaging app, texting to a friend of mine & for the the life of me cannot find the damn enter button? ... Help? Lol
Key below Backspace/erase. Last key of the keyboard

It's there for you in the stock text messaging app? Everywhere else (like right now as I type this from my phone) I do seen the enter button below the backspace button. But only in the stock text messaging app there is no enter button under the back space button.. only a Smiley's button that let's me put a face when I tap it, but gives me the option of choosing many emoticons when I hold it.. no enter button lol
You're right, it doesn't appear on the messaging app, you have to press the arrow shaped button next to the text field to send.
Is there anyway to switch to another app while on a call?
On Sony Xperia, one can press "home" key to switch to the home screen and start another app while continue to talk on the phone, but on Note 2 the call screen stay on no matter which key is press. Can anyone tell me if this is normal.

Maybe a other dialer helps? I've not tested it on standard. Go Contacts EX (dialer and contacts). I can dial and press home there.

No, what I meant is when you are already in a call. How to you get to check emails, SMS message or even play games at the same time when you are speaking to someone. I can not switch out of the contact's screen as it simply locks up the screen no matter which key is pressed. http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
I am using the Note 2 LTE
I just tested my phone..while on call..I pressed the home button..my dialer went away and my home page appeared. I am using stock rooted rom with go launcher.

What I mean is that during a call I can just press home, then open what ever I like. It works with Go Contacts anyway. I just tried it. Opened up Gmail without issues. See the green area in the top?
