    This is a new issue on my Blackberry Priv. When I open the physical keyboard to type something, the on screen keyboard turns on at the same time. I've tried a restart but this didn't solve the problem. Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    John

    Solved the problem. If you touch the keyboard icon in the bottom right of the screen, the "Change Keyboard" box comes up. There is a toggle switch to "show on-screen keyboard even if a physical keyboard is available". I must have turned it on at some point by accident.

    Are both keyboards active at the same time? Are you sure the physical keyboard is fully open?

    I am able to type on both keyboards at the same time - they are both on.

    If the physical keyboard is fully open and it is not switching off the virtual keyboard, you must have a defective unit.

    Ok - thanks. It just started happening. I'll call my IT support about it.
