After updating to android 10 on my Note10+ the keyboard is missing. I couldn't restart because it needed a password, but I managed to restart using side buttons. Still no keyboard. I currently have an expensive brick in my pocket. Please help.
The same issue just happened to mine last night....... I've tried restarting it and everything else to no avail. I'm going to try and find a keyboard that I can plug in with the USB-C to USB adapter that came with the phone..... Otherwise I see no solution other than factoring resetting the phone. Thanks Samsung you guys really suck sometimes.
@user5HClBV8PIZHere are the steps on how to place your phone into safe mode.
Turn the device off.
Press and hold the Power key.
When 'Samsung' appears on the screen, release the Power key.
Immediately after releasing the Power key, press and hold the Volume down key.
Continue to hold the Volume down key until the device finishes restarting.
'Safe mode' displays in the bottom left corner of the screen.
Release the Volume down key when you see 'Safe Mode.'
Uninstall apps that are causing a problem.
Turn off safe mode
Press and hold the Power key.
Tap Restart.
Tap OK.
The device restarts in normal mode.
Just to follow up, Going into safe mode allowed me to fix the problem. The issue was my 3ed party keyboard (Google handwriting keyboard) not working with the update. Going into safe mode allowed me to set the Samsung keyboard as default and that solved my problem. Hopefully my preferred keyboard will be fixed soon too.
Don't do a factory reset for this, it probably isn't necessary.
