Description

When editing TextInput word suggestion tab does not show above Swiftkey/Samsung keyboard
Swipe dos not work as well (path shows up on Samsung keyboard but no word shows up).
Google Voice input works fine.
Setting keyboard_suggestions to True (which is suppose to be True by default) does nothing.

As Kivykeyboardtester-0.5-debug.apk by @inclement gives exactly the same behavior I wonder whether it is my phone/keyboard fault or I do something wrong, or something is wrong with SDK2 (sorry if this was reported earlier).
I get the same behavior in the new Kivy Launched and when I build an apk.
I remember having the same issue about a year ago (and it was reason to stop playing with kivy). I remember that old Kivy Launcher (based on pygame and python2?) was working fine.
I would appreciate any hints.
