How To Validate an EditText to handle numbers only in Android?

Question

How can I validate a text view in android to handle positive integer numbers?

I don't want it to accept any character or signs etc...

Have you taken a look at the EditText's inputType attribute? You can set a whole bunch of different input types that the EditText should limit the user input to.

From the sounds of it, you're probably looking for something like:

<EditText
    ....
    android:inputType="number" 
     ... />
