Answer 1

You can add like this

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.home_screen);

EditText edittext = (EditText)getViewById(R.id.edittextid); 
edittext.setText("To:") 
}

Then you will see the text when ever you starting the activity.

I hope it helps....
