Keyboard Spamming Random Keys and Unusable

You've got a physical problem with the keyboard, though it could be due to either something shorting out part of the keyboard matrix (i.e. something metallic loose in the keys or even a sugary liquid spilled on it in the past) or an actual hardware failure in the keyboard scanning circuitry.

The pattern here isn't obvious, since though all of the affected keys are in a couple relatively close areas, they aren't all on the same rows and/or columns. However, even those vary from one keyboard to the next, so it's possible the pattern just isn't clear.

To confirm whether the problem is truly hardware the simplest test is to swap the keyboard, though with many modern mobile devices that's not easily done. It's the fact that other keys don't respond when the false keypresses occur that makes hardware the more likely issue, since most current keyboards only allow a single or at most 2 keypresses to occur before others are locked out, suppressing future key detections until the previous ones have been cleared.

I've had similar issues with laptop keyboards due to lemonade spills causing keys to stick, that removing and flushing the keyboard keys with water were able to resolve. However, I was aware this had occurred and disassembled the device almost immediately after these spills happened, so cleaning them out was easier when the keys were still relatively damp.

As I mentioned it could also be circuitry, so if you're unaware of any spills this might require technical support from your device manufacturer. As a past hardware tech I've had experience in hardware maintenance, so removing and holding a keyboard under running water or better yet a spray cleaning solution is something that wasn't an alien idea to me. If you're not comfortable doing this or unsure exactly what might have originally caused it, leave it to the experts.
