factory reset hudl and "google keyboard stopped working" big problem

[Guest wbb1]

Google keyboard stopped working after factory reset.

 

Now i cant even setup the hudl as it wont let me get past the wifi stage of entering the wifi code.

 

Each time i click on the area the hudl wont load the keyboard, and i get the google keyboard has stopped working error and cant do anything about it.

 

i have tried installing a hudl rom of this site from "apply update from external" and that gives error for stock and custom roms.

 

Now i have a dud hudl that cant do anything but boot up and turn off.

 

Any help is appreciated.

You should be able to skip the wi-fi configuration, if thats not possible than a USB/Bluetooth keyboard should be all that you need to get past the initial setup to a point where you can install a fresh version of google keyboard.

I couldn't skip the wifi configuration, but a usb keyboard with the otg cable worked.

 

I typed in the code and it went through and installed google keyboard from google play, thanks.

 

You have saved me a trip to tesco to see if they could restore it. :)
