switching language using external HW keyboard on Android

Hi,

I have KODI 16 running on Android and on Windows.
In the Windows based KODI – when I switch language (Ctrl +Shift) – I can search kodi dialogs in different languages even without using the on-screen Keyboard.
In the Android based KODI – when I switch language KODI ignores keyboard characters. it will only allow to type English. so in fact I must use on-screen keyboard for languages other than English making the keyboard useless.

The external Keyboard switches languages in all other Android apps, the problem is only in KODI.

I’ve searched this forum and didn’t find topics addressing this problem, and other forums have no solution.

do you have any idea ?
