Hide soft keyboard when pressed

Question

I have EditTextin Activity, and I want it to be active, and the soft keyboard is open when I open it Activity. Here is my xmlfor EditText:

<EditText
    android:background="@null"
    android:cursorVisible="true"
    android:elegantTextHeight="true"
    android:enabled="true"
    android:focusable="true"
    android:hint="Search"
    android:id="@+id/editText11"
    android:inputType="textNoSuggestions|textCapSentences"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:singleLine="true"
    android:textColor="#000000"
    android:textCursorDrawable="@null" />

and I used android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible"for the activity in which I have this one EditText.

The problem is that when I press backonce, the keyboard does not hide (ideally this applies to all other EditTexts), and when I press again back, it closes Activity. The first press, backI do not receive the call onBackPressed(), and the second backpress. Why is this behavior happening and how to solve it?

        if (activity.getCurrentFocus() != null) {
            inputMethodManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow(activity.getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(), 0);
        }

BaseActivity.java

@Override
protected void onPause() {
    super.onPause();

    final InputMethodManager inputMethodManager = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Activity.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
    if (inputMethodManager != null && inputMethodManager.isActive()) {
        if (getCurrentFocus() != null) {
            inputMethodManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow(getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(), 0);
        }
    }
}

Answer 3

public static void hideKeyBoardMethod(final Context con, final View view) {
    try {
        view.post(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) con.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
                imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.getWindowToken(), 0);
            }
        });

    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
    if (event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
        switch (keyCode) {
            case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK:
                 //useful for hiding the soft-keyboard is:
                 getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);

                return true;
        }

    }
    return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}

I tested my code, it works fine.

Step 1: Create CustomEditTextas shown below.

 <com.yourpackage.yourappname.CustomEditText
        android:id="@+id/edittext"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

Step 2: Create a Class CustomEditText.java.

public class CustomEditText extends EditText {

    Context context;
    private static Activity mSearchActivity;;

    public CustomEditText(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
        this.context = context;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean dispatchKeyEventPreIme(KeyEvent event) {
        if(mSearchActivity != null && event.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK){
            KeyEvent.DispatcherState state = getKeyDispatcherState();

            if(state != null){
                if(event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN && event.getRepeatCount() == 0){

                    InputMethodManager mgr = (InputMethodManager)
                            context.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
                    mgr.hideSoftInputFromWindow(this.getWindowToken(), 0);
                }
                else if(event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_UP && !event.isCanceled() && state.isTracking(event)){
                    mSearchActivity.onBackPressed();
                    return true;
                }
            }
        }


        return super.dispatchKeyEventPreIme(event);
    }    

}

Step 3: In your activity, configure CustomEditText and hide the KeyBoard, as shown below.

CustomEditText editText = (CustomEditText) findViewById(R.id.edittext);

        InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
        imm.showSoftInput(editText, InputMethodManager.SHOW_IMPLICIT);

Step 4: In your activity, just a Overridemethod onBackPressed().

 @Override
    public void onBackPressed() {
        super.onBackPressed();

    }
