Gear vr no virtual keyboard on online chat

Tried joining a variety of servers on gear vr mine craft and im unable to register on any of the servers as clicking the chat bar does not bring up the virtual keyboard. The virtual keyboard works fine in single player when prompted with chat but in multiplayer it will just do nothing. Please fix soon
