Way to hide softkeypad provided not effecting the features of the edittext in android
Try this one in activity class
getwindow().setsoftInputMode(winowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);
This one is avoiding of soft key pad
please use this in manifest:
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden" android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden"
You ddont need to add any method in menifist. just add this code.. It will automaticlly hide when you click on button to get value.
Want to hide softkeyboard use this code in your click listener method.
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);imm.hideSoftInputFomWindow(edittext.getWindowToken(),0);
i hope this code work fine.
