When I connect external wireless USB keyboard (Modecom MC-TPK2 Voyager)  the physical keyboard works, but the key "enter" doesnt work properly, because key "enter" always writes the letter "q". In Youtube, Chrome, Playstore.... etc.

I think there must be some problem with keyboard layout in the system. I tried to change the "Generic.kl" file in the “system” -> “usr” -> “keylayout”, but it didnt help.

This is happening because the copy of Generic.kl on the vendor partition didn't get the fix for the Enter key (key 28), which should be coded to ENTER and not DPAD_CENTER.

To fix this, just copy /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl -> /vendor/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl in TWRP File Manager or a root shell.

Yes. Reported the issue using Wireless Mini Keyboard - http://www.bee-link.com/forum.ph ... 1&fromuid=18779

.. it even happens using it's own remote and pressing OK causes q to be entered.

Anyways It has been reported.. not just with that post, but I also directly communicated it to Beelink. :D

You can turn off the display virtual keyboard in the machine settings - System - language and input method - entity keyboard, so that there will be no problem of typing "enter" into the letter "q" all the time. If you want to use the "enter" function, please press the "enter" key on the digital keypad.

I found /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl but I only have a /system/vendor/usr/keylayout folder . Is this the right one to copy the Generic.kl file into it - because there is already a Generic.kl file present.
And I am not able to copy anything into that folder, why not ?
