Research direction
Start by running the mandatory reproducer at https://github.com/mayurkadampro/Keyboard-example on an Android device with React Native 0.82.1, using the TextInput and its returnKeyLabel prop. Trace the Android TextInput implementation to determine why the supplied label is not applied. Done means returnKeyLabel produces the expected keyboard return-key label on Android, with coverage for the reported behavior.
