type in android mobile chat with connected bluetooth keyboard press ctrl+a to select all when that doesnt work try pressing ctrl+c to copy selected text using shift+arrowkey. either of those keystrokes should produce a select all or copy selected text. neither is currently working, ctrl+a and ctrl+c does not work… ctrl+v does seem to be working still however a little glitchy it has crashed my game on certain occasions…

I don' t agree with seeing this as a feature, i would like to see the old copy paste technique back as the stuff we have now is messy and not accesible for everyone.
