How to remove underline below EditText indicator? [duplicate]

Answer 1

set the background color of EditText to white.

You can set the background color of your screen to EditText background, if both screen background color and EditText background color are same means EditText underline won't be visible.

android:background="#FFFFFF"

programmatically I did it this way:

editText.setBackground(null);

Answer 3

android:background="@android:color/transparent"

Answer 4

You can also define a STYLE for your editText so you can regroup all properties in common. It is very powerful if you have to multiple edit text that need to has the behaviour

Put the code in res/values/styles.xml

<style name="MyEditTextStyle" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Widget.EditText">
    <item name="android:background">@color/transparence</item> //NO UNDERBAR
    <item name="android:maxLines">1</item>
    <item name="android:height">28dp</item> //COMMON HEIGHT
</style>

After that you just need to call it in your editText

               <EditText
                android:id="@+id/edit1"
                style="@style/MyEditTextStyle"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
               <EditText
                android:id="@+id/edit2"
                style="@style/MyEditTextStyle"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
