setOnEditorActionListener not working with soft keyboard submit button, but does with laptop Enter key?

Question

Can someone please provide a solution to get a working listener for the soft-keyboard DONE button, and/or explain what I\'m doing wrong in my current approach?<

Answer 1

Try this,

    ((EditText) findViewById(R.id.comment_text)).setOnEditorActionListener(new TextView.OnEditorActionListener() {
                @Override
                public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {

    if (event != null && (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_GO
                            || event.getKeyCode() == event.KEYCODE_ENTER))
    {
    //do whatever you want
    }

                }
            });
