If I am doing a lot of typing I prefer a physical keyboard; certainly on my phone. I have an Anker bluetooth keyboard - model K 1280.

This connects easily to my S5 phone, but I have difficulty connecting it to my Tab 2 (OS 4.2.2).

I select BT from the drop down tablet menu, press the BT icon and am shown my paired BT devices. I switch on my keyboard and tap the settings icon for keyboard. The next screen shows a check box "Use for input" I tap this but nothing happens even though the blue LED is flashing on the keyboard;on my phone the check box takes a tick and the keyboard connects

Any advice please?.
