Answer 1

You can try something like this

    edittext.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
                    // NOTE By setting the on click listener, we can show the custom keyboard again,
                   // by tapping on an edit box that already had focus (but that had the keyboard hidden).
                    @Override public void onClick(View v) {
                        showCustomKeyboard(v);
                    }
          });


          // Disable standard keyboard hard way
          // NOTE There is also an easy way: 'edittext.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_NULL)' 
         // (but you will not have a cursor, and no 'edittext.setCursorVisible(true)' doesn't work )
                edittext.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
                    @Override public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
                        EditText edittext = (EditText) v;
                        int inType = edittext.getInputType();       // Backup the input type
                        edittext.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_NULL); // Disable standard keyboard
                        edittext.onTouchEvent(event);               // Call native handler
                        edittext.setInputType(inType);              // Restore input type
                        return true; // Consume touch event
                    }
                });


        // Disable spell check (hex strings look like words to Android)
        edittext.setInputType(edittext.getInputType() | InputType.TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS);
