You need to set the IME Options on your EditText.

Then add a OnEditorActionListener to the view to listen for the "done" action.

EditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.some_view);
editText.setOnEditorActionListener(new OnEditorActionListener() {
    @Override
    public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
        boolean handled = false;
        if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
            // TODO do something
            handled = true;
        }
        return handled;
    }
});
