Connect a wireless keyboard to your Android device by Bluetooth or wireless. Create a new odf-document and open it (or an already existing odf-document) in the Android Viewer, activate the edit mode and type in characters via the external keyboard. Every character will be recognized and displayed twice. If you try to delete one of the typed characters it will delete the doubled character (not only a single part of the doubled).
I can not confirm with Version: 5.5.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 59c0682
Hi Andreas Mantke, Could you please try to reproduce it with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ ? I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO'. Please change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' if the bug is still present in the latest version.
Hi Xisco, it's a bug on the Android Viewer of LibreOffice. Is there a new version that fix this bug? I got this bug on my Android tablet with Bluetooth keyboard and with Wireless keyboard.
You can try with a daily build from http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/
I tried with a daily build and I wasn't able to open an odf-file or create a new one (I enabled the experimental mode). Thus I couldn't verify if the bug is already present or fixed. FYI: I had the same issue with the current LibreOffice Viewer from the Playstore (6.0.0 Alpha). It wasn't able to open a file on my tablet. The old viewer was able to open such files (maybe take a bit of time).

The bug with opening the files on Android should be fixed now. Thank you
It seemed that the issue with an external keyboard (I connected with a wireless keyboard) is gone now. But the apk from dev-builds was to slow on my tablet (it's not a high performer), thus I could not make real tests. I could only insert one character and it got a pause for longer time. Thus I need a non-debug-build to run real tests. Would be great if a working LibreOffice viewer could make it to the Playstore.

I can confirm that this bug still exists in LibreOffice Viewer 6.1.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID:9cf2616. I am testing with a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 running LineageOS version 14.1-20180208-NIGHTLY-klimtwifi. Steps to reproduce: 1. Open LibreOffice Viewer for Android. 2. Enable Experimental Editing Mode. 3. Open a document for editing. 4. Connect a Bluetooth keyboard. 5. Type characters. Result: At this point you will see that every character entered is doubled on the screen. Expected result: Each character typed should only appear on the screen once. Further, as it does not seem that any new information is needed, I am switching this bug to UNCONFIRMED.
