Android Button needs two click for action


The question is old and I don't know whether this will solve your problem, since your pastebin link doesn't work anymore, but since I stumbled upon your post with the same problem and I found a solution I will post it anyway:

In my case the problem occured when I applied a custom style to a button following a tutorial:

<style name="ButtonStyle" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.Button">    <item name="android:focusable">true</item>    <item name="android:focusableInTouchMode">true</item>    <item name="android:clickable">true</item>    <item name="android:background">@drawable/custom_button</item>    <item name="android:textColor">@color/somecolor</item>    <item name="android:gravity">center</item></style>

The problem was the following line:

<item name="android:focusableInTouchMode">true</item>

Once I removed it the button worked as expected.

Hope this helps.


I used the following to solve a similar problem. It automatically clicks on the item again if the first click only gets focus:

input.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {            public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {                if (hasFocus) {                    v.performClick();                }            }        });

I needed focusableInTouchMode to be true.


Similar to Maves answer. This did the trick for me:

<Button     style="@android:style/Widget.EditText"    android:focusableInTouchMode="false"    android:layout_width="match_parent"    android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
