I have a bunch of EditTexts in my Android application, each with InputMethod set to numberSigned. My target device does not have a hardware keyboard and uses the software keyboard for numeric entry. Android replaces the standard "Done" button to the right of the entry box with a "Next" button. How can I use "Done" instead?

First you need to set the android:imeOptions attribute equal to actionDone for your target EditText as seen below. That will change your 'RETURN' button in your EditText's soft keyboard to a 'DONE' button.
android:imeOptions="actionSend" /> You can then listen for presses on the action button by defining a TextView.OnEditorActionListener for the EditText element. In your listener, respond to the appropriate IME action ID defined in the EditorInfo class, such as IME_ACTION_SEND . For example: findViewById<EditText>(R.
You can force Android to hide the virtual keyboard using the InputMethodManager, calling hideSoftInputFromWindow , passing in the token of the window containing your focused view. This will force the keyboard to be hidden in all situations. In some cases you will want to pass in InputMethodManager.
Try adding android:imeOptions="actionDone" to your EditText.

This can also be accomplished in code with:
myEditText.setImeOptions(EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE); If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
