Please complete the original bug report template to include information software and hardware versions.
There are so many different android keyboards and OS you will need to be more specific.

[naowang]

plaform is android OS 10.
phone is huawei p30.
the keyboard is the huawei security keyboard. I didn't know why.
the keyboard can not change to other keyboard.

Can you please provide some replication steps about how we can get this keyboard and the sort of key that is not working?

[naowang]

the keyboard is part of system. have the phone have the keyboard. when click the entry the keyboard popup. maybe the entry attibute triggered the security keyboard.

[andydotxyz]

Can you please include a screenshot of this secure keyboard. And one of the keyboard you would expect?

[naowang]

here can not reply image. I have replied by the email. can you receive it?

[andydotxyz]

Images can be attached by tapping "Attach files by..." below the input box

[naowang]

this is the special keyboard.

[andydotxyz]

To an English speaker this looks like the normal keyboard.
What were you expecting to see?

[naowang]

the system other edit default have right default chinese input keyboard. but this entry have wrong default input keyboard that can't input chinese character.

[andydotxyz]

Ah now I understand - I have updated the title accordingly.

[andydotxyz]

Can you please provide more information about how to replicate? We don't have any expert liguists here, but using Telugu/Indian as an example the keyboard appears as expected:

[andydotxyz]

this is the special keyboard.

Under what circumstances would you expect this special keyboard to appear on your device?

[naowang]

The huawei phone have one option when input password show the security keyboard. I closed the option. everything is right.
Maybe fyne entry was recognised as password entry by system.

[andydotxyz]

Ah, this is starting to make sense. We request the "visible password" keyboard because Samsung phones ignore the "don't show autocomplete" hint. Perhaps we need to remove that workaround in the hope that they fix that bug?

[naowang]

remove it is right. thanks

[andydotxyz]

I think we have this resolved in PR #2447, please can you let me know if it works @naowang ?

[naowang]

the developing edition display nothing. but I is click the entry area. the popup keyboard is not right.

[andydotxyz]

It seems there is an issue with light theme that has crept in.
If you set your phone to dark mode, or activate it in the code you can test this fix, we need to get the theme resolved in another change.
Sorry for the confusion

[andydotxyz]

The theme fix is now merged into the PR so it should be working OK again.
My apologies for the problems, should not happen this late in testing!
