Answer 1

Tod answer is almost complete, but when you want to settext of an edittext with this eventcode you should to add a little thing:

sample_et.setText((char)event.getUnicodeChar()+"");

Answer 2

char unicodeChar = (char)event.getUnicodeChar();

Answer 3

Try this..

String s="";

@Override
public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
    EditText t=(EditText)v;
    s=t.getText();  
    return false;
}

Answer 4

If you don't have a KeyEvent object you can use this on the keycode :

public void onKey(int primaryCode, int[] keyCodes) {
     char c = Character.toChars(primaryCode)[0];
}

Answer 5

Use

String.fromCharCode();

String.fromCharCode(65,66,67) returns ABC.

See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/fromCharCode .

Answer 6

Use event.getNumber().
