Hi,
my first message here.
Anyone any luck working with a smartphone on Android?
smartphone: Samsung S4mini (I9195)
braille display: Freedom scientific Focus 14 Blue with perkins style input
working with touchscreen is no option in this case!
install of brltty went well and navigation through launcher is ok.
ones inside an app the problem starts.
getting in to an input field (url for browser or phonenumber for
textmessage) is troublesome. sometimes you get there, sometime you don't.
Once in the input field the cursor on the braille display doesn't follow
so makes it very hard to make adjustments of the input.
And if you're finally done there's no way to confirm the search or
input. Also no other way to get back out of the input field.
'Enter' doesn't work as expected.
Any who can give us some clues to get started, much appreciated.
The documentation available doesn't gives us sufficient answers.
