Can we get all the suggestions shown in any keyboard on android while typing?
If no, is there any alternate way of doing it?
I tried with SpellCheckerSessionListener, didn't succeed.

Could anyone help me the way which combination of
android:inputType
can directly show the softkeyboard with numbers and different digits in it. Take a look on that screenshot:
needed softkeyboard That is what I'm looking for.
I have found combination of
android:inputType="text|textVisiblePassword"
which shows such keyboard: found softkeyboard.
But it's not what I'm looking for.
Thanks in advance.
Android TV's GBoard (Keyboard app) only supports email, password, text, and numeric input layouts. Unfortunately none of those is very close to what you're looking for. You can either implement a keyboard-like UI within your app to accomplish what you're looking for (substantial undertaking) or use the password layout and give instructions to the user, depending on your use case.
Is there a way to access Android's standard keyboard's auto-correct suggestions?
I have searched and searched through the Android APIs to no avail. This is close, but not quite there. Previous questions have been left unanswered, but I was hoping that maybe now it's possible?
If not, what's the next step from here? Do I...write my own dictionary? Buy one?
I noticed with some apps/and even accessing websites on the phone, that my phone keyboard does not provide me with the auto correction feature.
I was wondering , is it possible to disable the auto correction in my app when someone clicks on EditText?
Thank you
Try adding
android:inputType="text|textNoSuggestions"
in you xml.
Please see how to avoid soft keyboard showing auto correct suggestion?
Update
After reading How to disable displaying "suggestions" on the Soft Keyboard it seems the above will not work in a few rare cases.
Therefore, a safer way to go would be to use
android:inputType="textNoSuggestions|textVisiblePassword"
or
android:inputType="textFilter"
I have a app in which i have edit text. I want to use it as a search bar. So when i click on it, i want to get a keypad in which i should have a search button.
I tried it using: android:imeOptions="actionSearch", android:imeActionLabel="Search" but i didnt get it. In android 2.1 we are getting it, but in android 2.2 we are not getting it. Can any one you suggest a good solution for this?
Its already answered at SO. Check out the answer here
Your edittext should be set as singleLine.
Is it possible to have the AutoCompleteTextView show the suggestions above the keyboard just like when using the default dictionary? (If yes, how:))
Or can I use my own database to show suggestion when using EditText?
Hope you understand what I mean:)
Thank you

I don't think this is possible. The suggestions shown above the keyboard are actually part of the IME, so completely unrelated to your application / activity.
The only way to do this would be for you to build-in your own IME and then you can customize what suggestions would be there. You can base it on latinIME, but there are still a couple of things you would need to figure out:
You would need to figure out how to tell Android to use your custom IME in your app. Or, like this answer say, just build in the keyboard in your app.
if your user is using a different keyboard (for different language, or swype or something like that), they would probably not like it much...
