Description Jonny D 2013-01-22 09:31:24 UTC 
I'm using the Android port and noticed that many keys from the software keyboard are not passed through SDL's text input API.  Among other keys, none of the numerical keys work.  I've seen the same on a device and emulator.  Here's a patch (attached) that passes on the needed data from the SDLInputConnection::sendKeyEvent callback.
