How do I show the number keyboard on an EditText i

Question

I just basically want to switch to the number pad mode as soon a certain EditText has the focus.

Answer 1

You can configure an inputType for your EditText:

<EditText android:inputType="number" ... />

Answer 2

To do it in a Java file:

EditText input = new EditText(this);
input.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER);

Answer 3

Define this in your xml code

android:inputType="number"

Answer 4

EditText number1 = (EditText) layout.findViewById(R.id.edittext); 
    number1.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER|InputType.TYPE_CLASS_PHONE);
     number1.setKeyListener(DigitsKeyListener.getInstance("0123456789”));

This code will only takes numbers from "0123456789”, even if you accidentally type other than "0123456789”, edit text will not accept.

Answer 5

editText.setRawInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER);

Answer 6

EditText number1 = (EditText) layout.findViewById(R.id.edittext); 
number1.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER);
