How to enter ampersand (&), asterisk (*) and other characters into android 2.1 emulator?

I am trying to add a new account to android 2.1 emulator. When I enter my password, I was unable to enter some characters like #, $, &, *, except @. For example, when I press shift + 7, only 7 is displayed in the password text box.

Any suggestion?

Typing these special characters into the emulator works correctly for me (Linux, US International keyboard layout). What platform are you using? Have you tried on-screen keyboard emulator?

Have you tried switching your input method from alpha to numeric / character?

I had the same problem. On your phone, you have to make sure the keyboard / locale settings match your computer settings. Find the settings icon and from there.

I could not enter special characters with pop-up soft keyboard, PC hardware keyboard, or gray keyboard to the right of the emulator window on emulator 2.3.3 (API10).

However, when I tried to use emulator 4.0.3 (API15), the PC's hardware keyboard entered characters without issue. The gray keyboard to the right of the window will just repeat keys if I hold them down to get to characters. The soft keyboard was not available in my configuration and I didn’t spend time configuring it.
