Turn off short-press keyboard shortcuts
By default, when you type on the physical keyboard from the home screen, your device uses short-press keyboard
shortcuts. You can change your settings so that typing on the physical keyboard either does nothing or starts a search in
the BlackBerry Device Search app.
