Android Question lost keystrokes in edittext

[frasc]

I have a USB thermometer that sends readings via keystrokes once per second. When run in a text editor, it works fine. When I run it via a textbox that I clear after ENTERPRESSED, I occasionally lose keystrokes because it seems like the textbox can't keep up with the rate of entry. Is there an alternative way to grab keystrokes without using edittext?

Try ( you can also hiden editText )

Sub EditText1_TextChanged (Old As String, New As String)
    Dim str As String
    str = New
    Log(str)
End Sub

Thank you, but that didn't help.

I did manage to fix it by using Erel's suggestion in this thread and used a label coupled with Activity_KeyPress in place of the edittext box
