Steps to reproduce: * Enable the English keyboard and the Hebrew keyboard (עברית). * Start the app. * Go to the search box. * Select the Hebrew keyboard. * Try typing some letters. No letters appear. * Switch to the English keyboard and type some letters. * Switch to the Hebrew keyboard again. * Try typing some letters. Now the Hebrew letters appear. Tested on Galaxy S 2 with Android 2.3.6. Several people reported this to me and i confirmed it myself, too. This may happen with other languages, but i didn't try it.
I'm seeing the same issue in Russian.
FWIW I don't see this issue on my Galaxy Nexus, Android 4.0.2, with either Hebrew or Russian keyboards. Not that the rest of the app works of course... ;)
On my Nexus One, Android 2.3.6 I can reproduce this even with the English keyboard by selecting an accented character (press and hold "e" or "n" and select "é" or "ñ" -- they don't insert a character initially).
It might be worth noting that changing the input language on iPhone seems to change the Wikipedia language. On Android, that is through our app setting. But I wonder if we should change the Wikipedia language based on keyboard selection in Android?
I have not been able to reproduce this on the Nexus One, Android 2.3.6 (same as Amir). This was using German, Portuguese, Russian and a third party Japanese keyboard. I paired German and Portuguese, English and Russian, and had to use the Japanese keyboard by itself.
Amir, check this again under the latest builds. We've removed the iframe, which may or may not change some of the event processing.
Seems fine on some devices.
Seems fine on Sony Xperia Neo and Samsung Galaxy S. On Sunday i'll verify on Samsung Galaxy S 2 and close if it's fixed.
Appears to be fixed on Galaxy S II and all other devices i tried.
