Edit Text without Autocorrect

Question

I want an EditText without the autocorrection. I have set the textNoSuggestions inputType, as shown:

 <EditText
    android:id="@+id/txtTarga"
    android:layout_width="150dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:ems="10"
    android:hint="Targa"
    android:inputType="textNoSuggestions|textCapCharacters" >

The capitalize flag works, but it is still autocorrecting.

How can I disable it?

Answer 1

inputType textVisiblePassword will do the trick (most of the times, because as Commonsware pointed out, it stays a request and you'll might find yourself finding devices where it works, and devices where it doesn't work)

Answer 2

android:inputType="textNoSuggestions"

according to this, inputType attribute may or may not be supported by some devices .

However, this seems to work more often

android:inputType="textNoSuggestions|textVisiblePassword"
