For this you have to take the onTouchListener on the parent layout of the Layout File. on the TouchListener you have to code to hide the Keyboard when click outside the EditText. Please follow XML Layout and Java class to resolve this issue please follow following url.

One way is that you can set a focus change listener to the EditText. When the widget loses focus you can hide the Keyborad by:-

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