Give EditText focus without showing the soft input - android

I have an EditText configured in the following way because I have a custom keyboard to display:
binding.editText.showSoftInputOnFocus = false
It works alright but I want to give the focus to the field when I load the screen, so I'm doing the following in my onStart method:
binding.editText.requestFocus()
When I do this the default keyboard unfortunately shows and hide my custom keyboard.
How to give the focus to the EditText without showing the soft input?

Android - focus an input textfield inside a webview

I have a problem to focus an input textfield inside a webview. In the webview a text input field is shown. If you click inside, the keyboard opens and the navigationbar is shown as required. The problem is, that the keyboard hides the input textfield. You can enter the text but you don´t see the input, until you scroll down.
Is there a way to resize the webview so the input text field is shown or to automatically scroll to the textfield?
The immersive mode (for usability reasons - required) is used, so I can´t set the windwoSoftInputMode flag to adjustResize.

How to view custom softkeyboard while tap on EditText in android?

I want to show softkeyboard after tapping on EditText in my custom Softkeyboard.
I have made one custom keyboard in which I've added one key.
This key will navigate you to a Conversion View which contains an EditText.
So after tapping on that EditText I want to open my own custom softkeyboard.
Please reply me as soon as possible.
You have two options: create a soft keyboard using the InputMethodService--that is, create a true soft keyboard that will be listed under the keyboard listing in the device's settings that the user can turn on and use at any time. That can be a lot of work.
You're other option is to mock the soft keyboard by creating a custom view, of which you handle input and toggle the visibility of explicitly in your app; blocking the native soft keyboard from showing (which you can do per activity via your manifest or in code).

soft keyboard full screen in android application

I have an application, where I have a list view, and list view is made upon custom adapter. I have made a suggestive search on list view. My problem is that, when I am about to type something in edit text search pan; then soft keyboard pop up gets full length by width and height in the screen, so I have no option to see whether my list view is getting changed on text change in edit text. I am being enable to see search result until I press done button in soft keyboard. I want soft keyboard pop up just pops up half the screen of my application so that I can see my listview data changes on text change given in edit text. Is there any solution related to my issue???
Add to your EditText the attribute android:imeOptions="flagNoExtractUi". This will prevent the soft keyboard to take full-screen size.
