Where do I find key mapping files used by Gboard and/or Samsung KB?

I use a Bluetooth keyboard from Logitech generally using Hungarian QWERTZ

I have tried three keyboards two of which give the wrong character for "shift + 1", but a third does it correctly

- Samsung Keyboard wrong "!"
- Gboard wrong "!"
- External Keyboard Helper (Playstore app) right "'"

"shift + 4" on all keyboards produces "!", which is right

This leads me to think that:

- the Logitech keyboard may not be at fault (because the Playstore app works okay with it)
- Samsung and Gboard look to be at fault: why produce the same character with two different keystrokes?!
- Gboard might be using the mapping set by Samsung

I have the same problem on both S10+ and on Tablet S7

Are there any files I could check? Google and Samsung don't want to know about my problem
 
Do you get the "configure physical keyboard" popup when you connect the keyboard? You have to set the Gboard setting to Hungarian in there.
 
No popup. The Gboard setting is already set to Hungarian and all the key mappings are correct except the one I have mentioned

Hmm... I don't think it's possible to remap an individual key... I actually looked into this myself (don't tell the Americans, but I prefer their layout for @ and " to the UK one).

Google barely care about non-US English speaking countries, so with Hungarian you are probably out of luck. Sorry.
