 Tested with ScummVM android app (amd64-v8a) 2.2.1pre and 2.3git:

 Occurs on:
 - EoB (Eye of the Beholder), on the character screen creation, when trying
 to name a character. If you bring up the keyboard (which is not brought up
 automatically), and then type a name, the game understands wrong
 characters (or a repeated character). Eg. I tried to name my character
 "Meep" and got "PP"

 - Beneath a Steel Sky, when trying to name a save game from the game's
 native menu, rather than ScummVM's own in-game menu. Again, wrong
 characters (or sometimes no characters) appear.

 This is probably an issue for other games too, but I haven't tested with
 more.

 Maybe a workaround would be to support ScummVM's virtual keyboard (which
 is not currently supported on Android 2.1+)

 Android Device: Xperia Z5 Compact. Android OS 7.1.1
