"We found an issue where certain Android keyboards (like the S6 with
predictive text) wouldn't work ... Certain keyboards use a predictive text
mode that does not dispatch a traditional onKey events, which is troublesome
... but telling the OS to use a "visible password" keyboard helps deal with
this problem ... perhaps there's some other way (onKeyPreIme?) to do
"textediting" events, but for now, this should be a fast fix ...
I hear it affects the Galaxy Tab A 8.0", Galaxy S6, Asus ZenPhone 2, maybe
others"
