Android :: EditView In ListView Row / Loose Focus When Soft Keyboard Shows
Nov 9, 2010
I have some EditViews in the rows of a ListView.This works just fine except when the soft keyboard raises and lowers.When I touch the EditView within the ListView with the soft keyboard down, focus jumps to the EditView, then the keyboard comes up, removes focus from the EditView and sets focus to the ListView, resulting in an odd user experience with the focus no-where visible.Touching the EditViews with the keyboard already showing works as you would expect.The problem seems to be with the soft keyboard lowering and raising and the ListView getting confused about where focus should be placed.

I have a form that is working fine with the "Next" flow order when using the computer keyboard with emulator (and probably with the keyboard on the G1) but not with the SoftKeyboard with 1.5.Some fields indicate "Next" with this keyboard, some go to the correct field and others don't.Two of the fields are text and they only give a carriage return instead of "Next."My numeric fields give the proper "Next" key. Use of the SoftKeyboard is a little underdocumented so far (if there is a hidden doc online somewhere please provide me a link to it). There are also some added fields under 1.5 that I have asked about previously but received no answer.These appear to have something to do with the Soft Keyboard.Though these can be set programmatically I haven't seen the proper way to set these flags using XML. This field is the one that replaces "Numeric" which deprecated.

The home screen of my Android application has three EditText views, meant to be used as three different search functions, each with a "Search" button. The app works perfectly on the device (G1) when using the trackball: I can move between the EditTexts with the trackball, all the events fire as expected, I can enter text using the physical keyboard in the selected EditText, Enter correctly submits the proper search, etc.
However, I can't switch between the EditText views using touches - only by using the trackball. Touches seem to be completely ignored by the EditText. Touches do fire for the buttons, but very hard - takes a lot of tries to make a touch register. In the simulator, clicking on any EditText does nothing - the first one always remains selected, and I never get a soft keyboard. This is all inside a TabHost - I've read there are some problems with that configuration, but it sounds like a slightly different issue (the EditText doesn't seem to lose focus - everything works perfectly with the trackball).

I'm showing an input box using AlertDialog. The EditText inside the dialog itself is automatically focused when I call AlertDialog.show(), but the soft keyboard is not automatically shown. How do I make the soft keyboard automatically show when the dialog is shown? (and there is no physical/hardware keyboard). Similar to how when I press the Search button to invoke the global search, the soft keyboard is automatically shown.

I would like to play around with some ideas and develop a soft keyboard for Android to replace the default one.
Is there any general information about soft keyboard development for Android out there?
Any best practices or guidelines?
Can I do with my keyboard application pretty much anything I could do with a normal Android application?
Can I do HTTP connections to synchronize keyboard data with a cloud DB and other phones I have?
Can I open other windows/screens from a key press, e.g. to display a custom input interface different to a normal QWERTY one. If that doesn't work, can I use a pop-up dialog instead?

I have a tabbed view with one Activity per tab, and when I switch from the first tab, which has a TextView, to the second tab, which only shows a clickable list, the soft keyboard is still there. I want it to go away.
I tried this:
CODE:.............
But this does not work, because there is no relevant view to provide, as there is no View on the screen that takes keyboard input.

I'm using an MK802 mini PC. I don't have a USB keyboard yet.
When I plug in a wired USB mouse, I can use that to click on the on screen soft keyboard.
But when I plug in the wireless dongle for a USB mouse, the Android soft keyboard doesn't show anymore (I guess this is because the wireless dongle supports both keyboard and mouse, and tells Android a hardware keyboard is available, so Android doesn't show the soft keyboard).
Any way to ignore this and always show the soft keyboard? Or another keyboard I can download which will always show?

I am trying to apply a selector to a ListView to make it easy for those without touch screens to navigate my app. The thing is, by applying the selector to the ListView, it only seems to apply the background colors to the entire list, not the items inside of it. Code...

I have an activity with ListView and buttons below:
CODE:.................
ListView row contains delete button:
CODE:.................
In Adapter, Button onClickListener is set, also there are dummies to make list non-selectable:
CODE:..............
What I want is:
Always show buttons in the bottom of screen after list (no matter how long it is, there should be scroll if it's too long) ListView should not be selectable, I don't want row selection row delete button should be selectable (focusable) with touch and with trackball
And everything works except I can't focus row delete button with trackball (although it's working with touch).

A few days ago I was trying to fix this issue: I have a header (three ImageButton's) and a ListView. If I use the dpad, pressing DOWN to focus the ListView, the ListView shows as selected the seventh or eighth row, not the first one.
What I need to do is that the first element of the ListView get the focus (or selection) when I use the dpad, from another screen component, but instead, the seventh or eighth is selected.
I had minSdkVersion=3 in my manifest. When I changed it to minSdkVersion=4 it worked as expected (first row selected). Don't know why, but there is a difference between both.

The plastic edge that runs around the lower part of the slider on my phone is a bit loose right next to where you plug the micro USB into the phone. It's very minimal, just a little bit of give that you can't actually see but if you press against it there is a slight clicking noise from the plastic edge moving slightly.

I've got a ListView that works just great, except for this minor annoyance. I can use the trackball/dpad to move up and down my list, and the background changes according to which row has focus. But when I touch the row (click or long click), there's no background change letting me know what's been focused. I've tried setting 'focusable' and 'focusable in touch mode' to true on the rows, but it still doesn't work.
Just in case it matters somehow:
I am setting onClickListeners for each row. The row is comprised of LinearLayouts, TextViews, and a single ImageView. Focusable/clickable is 'true' for each row. Have not specified values for these on the ListView.
Trackable does act funny. I can only move between rows after touching inside the ListView. If I scroll trackball above the first item, it's impossible for me to scroll back into the list.

I've set the row (view) being used in a ListView as non-focusable along with non-clickable and have set the listview's focusable flag to false as well. However, I still get the yellow highlight when I use the scroll-ball on my device. How can I disable the yellow highlight and use my own special view/color instead upon focus?

I make ListView that has some items that has one EditText and one ImageButton. When touch the EditText in ListView's Item, Keyboard was appeared but EditText lose focus. What can I do for resolve this problem? I can use ScrollView instead of ListView by addView in ScrollView. And in ScrollView, when I touch the EditText, keyboard was appeared and EditText keep the focus. But I must optimize the list because the list may has many items. In ListView, I can optimize list in getView. But in ScrollVIew, there was not way to optimaize list. So, I must use ListView.

I have a screen where the first field is an EditText, and it gains the focus at startup, also popups the numeric input type, which is very annoying. How can I make sure that when the activity is started the focus is not gained, and/or the input panel is not raised?

I'm having a very very strange problem with input and textarea html tags in a WebView. Basically they never seem to gain input focus with the virtual keybaord. which shows a single input box. There is now way just tapping around the screen to get it to accept input. Strangely, if I use my trackball on my G1 to select the field, I can eventually get focus and type in it. For trackball-less things like the N1, that doesn't help though.

I have a layout which has one large EditText view at the top + a bunch of buttons at the bottom. The EditText is made to shrink and expand when the ime is activated/deactivated by using adjust_resize. The buttons at the bottom are pushed up above the ime.
I would like to hide these buttons when the ime displays, to provide enough space for the EditText view.
I have so far tried the following:
subclassed EditText and provided the activity the option to register a callback on the view's OnSizeChanged.
Used this callback to change the visibility of the buttons (actually the layout container) to GONE.
This work OK and does hide the buttons when the ime pops up. However, the EditText does not expand into the new available space. Furthermore, when the ime is disposed off, the EditText field is now bigger than it was originally, pushing (the now showing) buttons outside the screen.
I should also add that when typing the first letter into the view, and the ime displays the word options, the screen is redrawn and the EditText fills the vacant space. how to get this to work? Or even better, is there a simpler solution to my requirement? In my view, scrolling is not a good option.

I have an EditText control that does not pop up the soft keyboard when the user touches it. The thing is, that I have a number of other EditText controls elsewhere in my application that all work fine, and I cannot see anything really different about this one.The code is a bit complex to post here, but I was wondering if anyone knows of any reasons why the soft keyboard would not appear in some cases.
