how to hide keyboard after typing in EditText in android?

I have a EditText and button aligned to parent's bottom.

When I enter text in it and press the button to save data, the virtual keyboard does not disappear.

Can any one guide me how to hide the keyboard?

Solution

  • This should work.

    InputMethodManager inputManager = (InputMethodManager) context.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE); 
inputManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow(this.getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(),InputMethodManager.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS);

    Just make sure that this.getCurrentFocus() does not return null, which it would if nothing has focus.
