Answer 1

If you use OnClick action on EditText like:

java:

mEditInit = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.date_init);
mEditInit.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        showDialog(DATEINIT_DIALOG);
    }

});

or kotlin:

editTextChooseDate.setOnClickListener {
        showDialog(DATEINIT_DIALOG)
    }

So, it will work perfectly if you put into xml of your EditText the following lines:

android:inputType="none"
android:focusable="false"
android:cursorVisible="false"

For example:

or for MaterialDesign
