I don't have a physical keyboard attached (Bluetooth is off, no OTG dongle attached) to this tablet but for some reason it is permanently stuck in physical keyboard mode. When I bring up the keyboard icon from the drawer it allows me to change 'Physical keyboard' from ON to OFF, but it lies. :( Bringing it up again stubbornly shows it back to ON.

The first time I rebooted after installing XposedFreeInput, tapping into an input text field brought the on screen keyboard up right away and I almost fell out of my chair. I thought I was hallucinating. So I rebooted again just to make sure and now... it's again locked in physical keyboard mode. Previously I tried the Disable Desk Dock xposed module but that didn't help.

I realize XposedFreeInput was originally created to solve a Samsung problem ("[Q] Bluetooth keyboard switches input method", ...showthread.php?t=2216329), and Disable Desk Dock for a Sony.

Anyone have any idea why XposedFreeInput would only work the one time, and how can I get it to work again?

Edit: Rooted stock 4.1.2.
