Hint only disappears when you type in any text, not on focus. I don't think that there is any automatic way to do it, may be I am wrong. However, as a workaround I use the following code to remove hint on focus in EditText

myEditText.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
    public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
        if (hasFocus)
            myEditText.setHint("");
        else
            myEditText.setHint("Your hint");
    }
});
