Hide Soft keyboard on return key press

If you don't want multiple line, for you edittext you can just specify a single line. For the edittext and also you can put imeOptions as Done like this:

<EditText    android:id="@+id/edittext_done"   android:layout_width="fill_parent"   android:layout_height="wrap_content"   android:imeOptions="actionDone"   android:singleLine="true"   />

I clearly don't know, whether you are trying to achieve this or not.Any way take a look.

EDIT: android:singleLine is deprecated since API 3 due to bad performance, you have to use android:maxLines instead. singleLine will be available because even now some effects are not supported by android:maxLines attribute.

I solved the issue by changing the following in the XML file from:

 android:inputType="textMultiLine"

to:

 android:inputType="textImeMultiLine"

Below code works for me.

IN XML:

    android:imeOptions="actionDone"    android:inputType="textCapWords"

IN JAVA CLASS:

    edit_text.setOnEditorActionListener(new OnEditorActionListener() {                @Override                public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub                    if ((actionId==EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE )   )                     {                           //Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "call",45).show();                       // hide virtual keyboard                       InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)getActivity().getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);                       //or try following:                       //InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)getBaseContext().getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);                       imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(auto_data.getWindowToken(), 0);                       return true;                    }                    return false;                }            });
