Before you downvote and mark as duplicate, read my question.

I've read the other questions discussing this, and all of them work for my layouts, except for the very first one created.

At the moment, this is at the top of my onCreate method:

getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);

^ That makes it so at least the keyboard doesn't pop up on startup, but the EditText is still focused on.

This is the XML for my EditText:

<EditText

    android:id="@+id/password"

    android:layout_width="wrap_content"

    android:layout_height="wrap_content"

    android:layout_below="@+id/changePass"

    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"

    android:layout_marginTop="167dp"

    android:ems="10"

    android:imeOptions="flagNoExtractUi"

    android:inputType="textPassword"

    android:maxLength="30" >

</EditText>

This is what it looks like when I bring up my activity:

The problem is that with some phones, when an EditText is focused like this, they can't write in it. I want it to not focus.

What I've done works for the next layouts brought up in that it the EditTexts are not focused on and would look more like this:

Notice that it's the same layout, though. This is the screen after the user has been brought back to this screen, which would indicate nothing wrong with the XML because this is the same XML, but the problem is that the EditText is only focused on when the activity is created.

I've done research and all of the other questions don't help me with this (they did however help the keyboard not show up, thankfully). How can I make it so the EditText on startup will look like the second screenshot, rather than the first?

You can set property of Layout like android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants" and android:focusableInTouchMode="true"

Example:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

  android:id="@+id/mainLayout"

  android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants"

  android:focusableInTouchMode="true" >



    <EditText

        android:id="@+id/password"

        android:layout_width="wrap_content"

        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:layout_below="@+id/changePass"

        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"

        android:layout_marginTop="167dp"

        android:ems="10"

        android:imeOptions="flagNoExtractUi"

        android:inputType="textPassword"

        android:maxLength="30" >

    </EditText>



</RelativeLayout>

May this one helpful ;)

XML code:

<EditText

    android:id="@+id/password"

    android:layout_width="wrap_content"

    android:layout_height="wrap_content"

    android:layout_below="@+id/changePass"

    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"

    android:layout_marginTop="167dp"

    android:ems="10"

    android:focusable="false"

    android:imeOptions="flagNoExtractUi"

    android:inputType="textPassword"

    android:maxLength="30" >

</EditText>

Java code:

EditText edPwd = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.password);

edtPwd.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {



        @Override

        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {



            v.setFocusable(true);

            v.setFocusableInTouchMode(true);

            return false;

        }

    });

set focusable false in xml and set it true via the code

In your main_layout
add this 2 lines:

android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants"

android:focusableInTouchMode="true"

example:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants"

android:focusableInTouchMode="true"> *YOUR LAYOUT CODE* </RelativeLayout>

Add this in onCreate()

getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);

or in onCreateView()

 getActivity().getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);

XML Code

<EditText 

    android:imeOptions="flagNoExtractUi"

    android:focusable="false"

    />

Java Code in onClickListerner

 mEdtEnterPhoneNumber.setFocusable(true);

    mEdtEnterPhoneNumber.setFocusableInTouchMode(true);
