> There is a small bug in iOS 8.0, which makes all the Bluetooth keyboards

> 
> a. If you use just one software keyboard in iPhone, temporarily add another

> arbitrary one.
> 
> b. Open the Notes app.
> 
> c. Create a new note.
> 
> d. Hold down L1 and press B7 to turn off the quick navigation option.
> 
> e. Press L3 to turn RiVO into typing mode.
> 
> f. Hold down L1 and press L3 a few times to cycle through the list of 
> software keyboards.
> 
> g. Hold down L1 and press B7 to turn on the quick navigation option.
> 
> h. Now RiVO should work fine. If you want, you may delete the software 
> keyboard temporarily added at Settings, General, Keyboard, Keyboards.

> Thanks.
