I had an on-screen keyboard. I have done something. It is now nowhere to
be found. I have done power-down cycles.
Under Settings, in KEYBOARD & INPUT METHODS, I see:
KEYBOARD & INPUT METHODS
---------------------------------------------------------
Default
Automatic - Google voice typing
---------------------------------------------------------
Google voice typing ---#-
[/] -#---
Automatic ---#-
SPEECH
---------------------------------------------------------
etc., where [/] is a little tick box, which is greyed out presumably as
it's the only option.
When I go into anything that needs a keyboard, I get a microphone which
is replaced by a triangle, and "Connection problem".
What have I done that disabled the (on-screen) keyboard - so completely
that it's not even listed? I can't find a mention of a keyboard anywhere
- certainly no apps with a keyboard in their name. I don't _think_ I've
_deleted_ it (can they even _be_ deleted? Seems a bit daft if so); I've
done a forced stop on lots of things, but I'd have thought a power-down
would have re-started any of those that were needed. (I didn't stop any
with keyboard in the name anyway.)
I've googled 'till I'm blue in the fingers; _nearly_ all the solutions
say go to keyboard and input methods and select it there. Which is
absolutely useless if it isn't there to be selected. A very few say
download a new keyboard (Gboard or something like that?), but:
(a) why would I need to download what I already had
(b) I can't anyway, as I have no way of telling the play store what to
look for.
I haven't yet tried a factory reset, as I'd _rather_ not lose all my
data.
I hate android ... (iOS not much better mind!) I'm a Windows user.
