Soft Keyboard shows up on EditText focus ONLY once
Solution 1:
Try to open and hide inside a Runnable
as,
TO OPEN
ettext.requestFocus();
ettext.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
InputMethodManager keyboard = (InputMethodManager)
getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
keyboard.showSoftInput(ettext, 0);
}
},200);
TO CLOSE
ettext.requestFocus();
ettext.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
InputMethodManager keyboard = (InputMethodManager)
getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
keyboard.hideSoftInputFromWindow(ettext.
getWindowToken(), 0);
}
},200);
Solution 2:
You used the wrong view for showing the input window.
EditText editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText);
editText.requestFocus();
InputMethodManager imm =(InputMethodManager)getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
if(imm != null) {
imm.showSoftInput(editText, 0);
}
Solution 3:
try this:
final InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)EnterWordsActivity.this.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
if (imm != null)
{
imm.toggleSoftInput(YOUE_EDTITE_TEXT.SHOW_FORCED,1);
}
Solution 4:
None of above work until i clear the forces textField.clearFocus();
before requesting focus, so my final code in onResume
looks like this.
@Override
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
Log.d(TAG, "onResume: ");
resumed = true;
textField.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
textField.clearFocus();
textField.requestFocus();
if (!editMode)
textField.getText().clear();
inputMathodType = SharedPref.read(SharedPref.KEY_INPUT_MATHOD_SHARED_PREF, -1);
setInputMethod();
}
}, 200);
}
