There is such an input field, using dances with a tambourine made the keyboard appear in Genymotion, but at the same time nothing is entered at all, except from the clipboard it turns out to be pasted. I even assigned OnClick to this field, an event in the log can be seen (Log.d (TAG, "editName.OnClick");). Virtual keyboard is enabled in the settings, Hardware Physical keyboard is not found in the settings.
<EditText android:id="@+id/editName" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_below="@+id/catlist" android:layout_marginLeft="10dp" android:layout_toRightOf="@+id/editID" android:focusable="true" android:focusableInTouchMode="true" android:hint="@string/Name" android:inputType="text" android:clickable="true" android:enabled="true" android:editable="true"> </EditText> editName.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { @Override public void onClick(View v) { editName.requestFocus(); InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); imm.toggleSoftInput(InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED, InputMethodManager.SHOW_IMPLICIT); //imm.toggleSoftInput(InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED, InputMethodManager.HIDE_IMPLICIT_ONLY); //imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(editName.getWindowToken(), 0); Log.d(TAG, "editName.OnClick"); } });
