Android emulator does not accept keyboard input - SDK tools rev 20

For those using custom AVD skins and SDK rev 20 tools, how do you access the keyboard for work?

The solution discussed in the Android emulator does not use keyboard input. SDK rev 20 tools only work for unmanaged default skin (WVGA800).

It uses the "Google Android emulator skins for Nexus S and Nexus One" found here:

I tried editing AVD config.ini by adding hw.keyboard = true, it still does not work.

Apparently, there is a file hardware.iniin each folder of the skin (for example NEXUS-S) that indicates hw.keyboard=no. You can change this line to include the keyboard in a skin-based AVD. There is also hw.dPad=yesif you want to use the arrow keys.

From Eclipse, go to AVD Mananger. Select a specific AVD and click Edit. Go to the "Hardware" section, click "Create." Select a property name: keyboard support By default, a value of no is added. Just click on the column of values ​​and change it to yes. Click "Edit AVD" again. This will add the hw.keyboard = yes property in the config.ini file for AVD.
