Implicit "Submit" After Hitting Done on the Keyboard at the Last Edittext

Implicit Submit after hitting Done on the keyboard at the last EditText

Try this:

In your layout put/edit this:

<EditText
    android:id="@+id/search_edit"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:inputType="text"
    android:singleLine="true"
    android:imeOptions="actionDone" />

In your activity put this (e. g. in onCreate):

 // your text box
 EditText edit_txt = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.search_edit);

 edit_txt.setOnEditorActionListener(new EditText.OnEditorActionListener() {
     @Override
     public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
         if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
             submit_btn.performClick();
             return true;
         }
         return false;
     }
 });

Where submit_btn is your submit button with your onclick handler attached.

Android - Handle Enter in an EditText

I am wondering if there is a way to
handle the user pressing Enter while
typing in an EditText, something like
the onSubmit HTML event.

Yes.

Also wondering if there is a way to
manipulate the virtual keyboard in
such a way that the "Done" button is
labeled something else (for example
"Go") and performs a certain action
when clicked (again, like onSubmit).

Also yes.

You will want to look at the android:imeActionId and android:imeOptions attributes, plus the setOnEditorActionListener() method, all on TextView.

For changing the text of the "Done" button to a custom string, use:

mEditText.setImeActionLabel("Custom text", KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER);

android: Softkeyboard perform action when Done key is pressed

Try this

editText.setOnEditorActionListener(new OnEditorActionListener() {        
    @Override
    public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
        if(actionId==EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE){
            //do something
        }
    return false;
    }
});

insert the data in database when keyboard's done button is click in android

make one

class DatabaseHelper
    public class DatabaseHelper extends SQLiteOpenHelper{
    SQLiteDatabase dbms1;
    DatabaseHelper dbHelper;
    Cursor records;
    public DatabaseHelper(Context context){
        super(context,"UserDatabase", null,1);
        Log.i("Information", "Database Created");
        // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
    }
    @Override
    public void onCreate(SQLiteDatabase db) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    }
    @Override
    public void onUpgrade(SQLiteDatabase db, int oldVersion, int newVersion) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    }
    public void createTable(){
        try{
            dbms1=getWritableDatabase();
            String sql1="create table if not exists user(_id INTEGER  PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, name text not null,emailid text,gender text,username text,password text,birthdate text,phonenumber text,admin boolean,image BLOB);";
            Log.i("haiyang:createDB=", sql1);
            dbms1.execSQL(sql1);
        }
        catch(SQLiteException e){
            Log.i("SQLiteException",e.toString());
        }
    }

    public void closeDatabase() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        try{
            dbms1.close();
        }
        catch(SQLiteException e){
            Log.i("SQLiteException",e.toString());
        }
    }
    public boolean inserRecord(String name,String emailid,String gender,String username,String password,String birthdate,String phonenumber,boolean admin,Drawable drawableResource) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Bitmap image = ((BitmapDrawable)drawableResource).getBitmap();
        ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        image.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG, 100, out);
        ContentValues record=new ContentValues();
        record.put("name",name);
        record.put("emailid",emailid);
        record.put("gender",gender);
        record.put("username",username);
        record.put("password",password);
        record.put("birthdate",birthdate);
        record.put("phonenumber",phonenumber);
        record.put("admin",admin);
        record.put("image",out.toByteArray());

        try{
            dbms1=this.getWritableDatabase();
            dbms1.insert("user", null,record);
        }
        catch(SQLiteException e){
            Log.i("SQLiteException",e.toString());
        }
            return true;
    }
}

after you have to create object of

DatabaseHelper dbHelper=new DatabaseHelper(this);
dbHelper.createTable();

now call insert method of DatabaseHelper class

dbHelper.insertRecord(....arguments....);

How to show soft-keyboard when edittext is focused

To force the soft keyboard to appear, you can use

EditText yourEditText= (EditText) findViewById(R.id.yourEditText);
yourEditText.requestFocus();
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.showSoftInput(yourEditText, InputMethodManager.SHOW_IMPLICIT);

And for removing the focus on EditText, sadly you need to have a dummy View to grab focus.

---

To close it you can use

InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(yourEditText.getWindowToken(), 0);

---

This works for using it in a dialog

public void showKeyboard(){
    InputMethodManager inputMethodManager = (InputMethodManager) context.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
    inputMethodManager.toggleSoftInput(InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED, 0);
}

public void closeKeyboard(){
    InputMethodManager inputMethodManager = (InputMethodManager) context.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
    inputMethodManager.toggleSoftInput(InputMethodManager.HIDE_IMPLICIT_ONLY, 0);
}
