I want to show this keyboard by default on EditText focus: These actions didn't help: inputType=number inputTYpe=phone numeric=integer setRawInputType(...) How should I do it? Wishmaster That old problem still not solved. There's no way to show numeric keyboard with option of switching back. This question discussed here Is there a way to show the numbers first on the soft keyboard for Android? johnrao07 try to use this in java: editText.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT); editText.setRawInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER); There's no way to achieve this. Even if your input method

I'm facing a very strange problem with an EditText with assigned InputFilter in an application I'm writing. The idea is, to have an EditText, which only accepts decimal numbers as input with a maximum of two decimal places and a decimal separator according to the user's locale settings. Here are the relevant pieces of code The EditText in my layout <EditText android:id="@+id/value" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:digits="01234567890,." android:inputType="number|numberDecimal" android:nextFocusForward="@+id/category" > The InputFilter

How to add to an EditText component another hint that will react as an hint, but with different as the default hint. For example: field name is city, so I would like the primary hint in black to be displayed as "city" and in light blue I would like it to be dislayed as "tap to select a city". Are there any ready-to-go components or xml attributes for it? Is this a case where I need Java code and implement onfocus and show/hide another TextView that will react as label? I got this as strings.xml: <string name="fld_fullname"> <![CDATA[ <font color="#8B8B8B">City</font> <font color="#BABABA">tap

I'm trying to write a word guessing game like hangman in android. let's say if the word is 'apple'. I want to display 5 underlines to tell the player that the word is 5 chars long, and they should be displayed/filled like below i cant think of a way to do so easily. i found this to be exact the same what Im looking for but there's no answer given and somehow got a lot of downvotes. my initial thought is creating edittext with underline to be the hint and loop through all the characters. this will create # of edittext based on how many characters, but underline will be gone once a char is

I have a bold button that, when pressed, is supposed to change the typeface of the selected text in the EditText field . This all works perfectly, with one exception. If there is bold typeface elsewhere in the EditText , and I try to create a new bold section, the original section is changed back to normal . For example, this string: Bold not bold more bold. If I highlight any of the normal words and press the button, they do become bold , but the first word becomes normal . I can't see any reason for this in my code. Thanks! final StyleSpan normalStyle = new StyleSpan(Typeface.NORMAL); final

In my application I've implemented a num-pad of my own, which is used for entering (number-based) passcodes. The 'password', or rather the 'dot'-representation of it, is shown on 4 EditTexts implemented in 4 boxes above the num-pad. When you enter a number one of those boxes will get filled in with a dot - for this I use the TransformationMethod PasswordTransformationMethod - but I'd want the number you punch in to be visible for a short while before it gets hidden (Like ~200ms). Is there any implementation of this readily-done in Android or how would you implement this the best way? I'm sure

Update: actually, this is not a problem with Asus Phones, it's a problem with Asus ZenUI's keyboard. You can install a keyboard you like to walk around the problem. I have tested Zenfone 2 with Google Keyboard installed. Everything in my TextWatcher works fine. But it is not a bug fix or problem solution. I have two InputFilter s and one TextWatcher attached to my EditText . InputFilters : standard InputFilter.AllCaps() filter and custom 'alphabet characetrs only'. They works as magic. TextWatcher makes some text transofrmations (transliterates symbols from Russian into English). TextWatcher
