Why is Android WebView refusing user input?

Question

I\'m developing an Android application that uses a WebView to display the login page for Facebook. The page loads beautifully, and I\'m able to select the username/password

I spend a lot of time to solve this problem. Finally, I realized that it is not about WebView. In my case, I have a webview inside dialog. I want to handle back pressed button to cancel dialog and finish activity as well. And I wrote code below:

private void setOnBackPressed() {
    this.setOnKeyListener(new OnKeyListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onKey(DialogInterface dialog, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
            if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) {
                dialog.dismiss();
                activity.finish();
            }
            return true;
        }
    });
}

So, when I use the keyboard, this method reject all key presses somehow and then it doesn't appear on the text fields.

I only changed the return value to false. So, it worked properly.

Hope it helps!!

PS: this method is inside my dialog class that extends Dialog class
