    So, today I thought I'd try to be productive and build out a new sales model for a client during my commute using my KEYone and Google Sheets. After all, the ability to use Android apps is the whole point of Android.

    What a disaster! I wasn't able to bring up the VKB in Google Sheets (The SYM button did nothing) and the PKB defaulted to the ALT characters for all keys. I couldn't access an equal sign or any of the alpha characters to write forumlas!!

    Is this true?! Am I missing something, or is the Google Sheets app simply unusable on the KEY phones??

    OK. I'll reboot and try again tomorrow. Are you able to bring up the VKB while using Sheets?

    User error is the easiest thing to fix, Soni hope I'm just holding it wrong!

    Yes on the virtual keyboard (from the sym key) but you have to either start typing first or click in the Fx - Enter text or formula first.

    Just confirming that it's working properly now. Must have been a glitch with the PKB that didn't work inside Google Sheets immediately after I installed Sheets. After a reboot, it works perfectly.
