Can't disable predictive text

Question

I'm trying to disable predictive text for a given EditText, as explained here, but I still get the autocomplete by the prediction...

I've got a Samsung Galaxy S with XT9 enabled.

Anybody can help?

<EditText
    android:id="@+id/search_field"
    android:layout_width="300dp"
    android:layout_height="27dp"
    android:background="@drawable/bg_searchfield"
    android:hint="@string/search_hint"
    android:imeOptions="actionSearch"
    android:inputType="text|textNoSuggestions|textFilter"/>

Answer 1

The only solution that worked for me to see the right font on hint and on text using the Calligraphy library is:

• Set your password EditText in your xml with android:inputType="textNoSuggestions|textVisiblePassword"
• Configure your EditText programmatically with: passwordET.transformationMethod = PasswordTransformationMethod()

This will:

1. Show the correct font on hint
2. Show the correct font on text
3. Show the correct font if you've got a TextInputLayout
4. Will not show suggestion or predictions in your keyboard.
