Language switch with single press of the shift key

[Teracotapie]

Hello, 

I have a Samsung galaxy Tab S9 tablet 8\128 WiFi. There is one big problem with changin language on physical external keyboards. Language switches by pressing only one shift key alone (without other key and do not depend on them at all). I have tried multiple different keyboards, including original keyboard in official store. I also thied multiple side prand keyboars including my main one - Redragon Draconic bluetooth keyboard. Changing or turning off shortcuts in settings does not help. can you recomend what to do in this situation and how to solve the problem. Maybe reccomend me some apps to remap the keys

Hi! Warm welcome to the Samsung Members community!

To be sure you're aware that Shift + Space does cycle through languages, You can turn it off in settings, I think it's called Physical Keyboard Setting


Unless its JUST Shift key?
The fact that it's doing this for all keyboards points towards a setting somewhere.

1. Double-check Android's Language & input settings: Disable all language-switching shortcuts for external keyboards. Verify keyboard layout.

2. Boot into Safe Mode: If the problem stops, a third-party app is the culprit. Uninstall recent apps one by one.

3. Keyboard remapping apps (use cautiously): Apps like External Keyboard Helper might work, but read reviews first.

4. Update Android: Check for system updates.

5. Contact Samsung Support: They might have specific advice.
