Hello,
This is a quick tutorial for Bluetooth Keyboard.The main issue with this phone and external (bluetooth) keyboards is that the pression of some keys (such as "W" and many others) produce the lock screen of the phone. While in the specific the key "T" is not completely working.
This issue is due to the gesture management which breaks the normal behaviour of the external keyboard. To solve this problem it is possible to disable the gesture management exploing the fact that our device is already rooted in the stock firmware (rom).
The following procedure allow us to disable the smart gesture and restore the normal functionality of the external keyboard.

Hello,
Quick tutorial for Bluetooth Keyboard
1. Go to the Google Play Store.
2. Look for the app "Root Browser" and install it.
3. Open "Root Browser".
4. When you open the first time it asks to install "Busy Box". Just Accept and install it.
5. In "Root Browser" go to /system folder.
6. Open the file "build.prop" using the "RB Text Editor".
7. Set the following parameters (which are already at the end of the file) to 0:

ro.mtek_double_click_support=0
ro.mtek_screen_gesture=0

8. Save the file and close the "Root Browser".
9. Reboot your device.
10. Once the device has boot the paired BT Keyboard should work properly.

Warning: the screen gesture and the double tap awake are disabled if you apply this procedure. To use a bluetooth (external) keyboard it is necessary to disable these features because they brake the normal behaviour of the external keyboards under the Umi Iron Pro android rom.

Disclaimer: the modification of the "build.prop" file can be dangerous, do it on your risk so don't blame me if you brick your device. Don't apply this procedure if your smartphone is not an Umi Iron Pro with stock rom version 3.02. Therefore only for Umi Iron Pro with 3.02 version of the firmware.
Thanks Bye.
