Close virtual keyboard on button press

Question

InputMethodManager inputManager = (InputMethodManager)
                                  getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); 

inputManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow(getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(),
                                     InputMethodManager.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS);

I put this right after the onClick(View v) event.

You need to import android.view.inputmethod.InputMethodManager;

The keyboard hides when you click the button.

mMyTextView.setOnEditorActionListener(new TextView.OnEditorActionListener() {
    public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
        if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_SEARCH) {
            // hide virtual keyboard
            InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
            imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(m_txtSearchText.getWindowToken(), 
                                      InputMethodManager.RESULT_UNCHANGED_SHOWN);
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
});

Use Below Code

your_button_id.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        try  {
            InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)getSystemService(INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
            imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(), 0);
        } catch (Exception e) {

        }
    }
});

You should implement OnEditorActionListener for your EditView

public void performClickOnDone(EditView editView, final View button){
    textView.setOnEditorActionListener(new OnEditorActionListener() {

        @Override
        public boolean onEditorAction(EditView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
            hideKeyboard();
            button.requestFocus();
            button.performClick();
            return true;
        }
    });

And you hide keyboard by:

public void hideKeybord(View view) {
    inputMethodManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.getWindowToken(),
                                  InputMethodManager.RESULT_UNCHANGED_SHOWN);
}

You should also fire keyboard hiding in your button using onClickListener

Now clicking 'Done' on virtual keyboard and button will do the same - hide keyboard and perform click action.

For Activity,

InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)getSystemService(INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(), 0);

For Fragments, use getActivity()

getActivity().getSystemService();

getActivity().getCurrentFocus();

InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)getActivity().getSystemService(INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(getActivity().getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(), 0);

In your case, as you only have one EditText, the bellow solution is the best one, I believe. If you had more than one EditText component, then either you would need to focus on the EditText that you wanted to close, or call the bellow function for every EditText. For you though, this works brilliantly:

editText.onEditorAction(EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE);

Basically, the EditText already has a function that is intended to deal with what to do after the keyboard has been used. We just pass that we want to close the keyboard.
