Option-4
Eclipse > Window menu > AVD Manager
Select your virtual device and click Edit
Under Hardware, Click New
Select Keyboard Support then click OK
Edit its value to yes
Now you have to click off onto another item in the list, like “Abtract LCD Density” or something. This seems to make the UI keep the “yes” change.
My other AVDs that don’t have this “keyboard support” hardware property added do NOT accept my physical keyboard input.
