OnEditorActionListener not working

Question

I simply want to catch the event when the user press enter on an editText.

I did not get the Toast message, not the \"Enter pressed\" and not the \"Some key pressed!

I don't know why Atul Chatuverdi's answer was downvoted, -- after lots of browsing, this one finally did "a wonder" to me.

I confirm that ActionDone may not work. It works on my Samsung but for some reason doesn't work on Fly S. The event is just not fired. Both are Android 7.1. I wonder, if it is a bug of Google's keyboard...

The code that I used to make it finally work on all devices is

(You can use text instead of textUri, depending on your needs).

In my fragment:

editText = view.findViewById(R.id.et_path);
...
editText.setOnEditorActionListener(new onGo());

and the nested class to process the action.

private class onGo implements TextView.OnEditorActionListener {
   @Override
   public boolean onEditorAction(TextView textView, int i, KeyEvent keyEvent) {
    if (i == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_GO) {

         // To do stuff
        return true;
    }
    return false;
   }
  }

As for if (event != null && (event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER)) in a multiline text, I have the same problem. It works with Samsung keyboard, Hacker's keyboard, but not Google keyboard.

Advice to use a textwatcher is a no-go for various reasons (like pasting text with enter signs instead of pressing the enter button and others).
