Answer 1

I was using an EditText with inputType="number" and solved the problem by modifying Asha's solution:

private TextView.OnEditorActionListener numberEnterListener = new TextView.OnEditorActionListener(){
        public boolean onEditorAction(TextView tv, int actionId, KeyEvent event){
            if(actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE 
                || actionId == EditorInfo.IME_NULL
                || event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER){

                tv.clearFocus();

                //Stupid keyboard needs to be closed as well
                InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) context.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
                imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(tv.getWindowToken(), 0);

                return true;
            } else {
                return false;
            }
        }
    };

The focus was removed in order to stop showing the number pad. The imm was required because a soft keyboard was still present even after clearing focus.
