Is there any way to programatically hide the emoticon key in kitkat keyboard? I have marked the key in the image given below.
I need to remove this icon from the keyboard displayed when I tap an edit text in my application. Can anybody help?
1)
Do a long press on the button you marked in your picture. There should pop up a small window.
Hit Input languages and deselect Emoji / Emoticons / ....
2)
If the first way does not work, download the android kitkat keyboard and use this instead of your current keyboard.

I am developing custom keyboard in android and I have some popup characters but they are in a different style, so I want to change their style for example make the background white, and I want to make the popup characters swipe not clickable, see the images, when long press on the "." character the ".com .net .org" will appear
when long press on "."
this should appear, see it's background color is different than the original keyboard
thanks in advance.
I have a problem in my android air project. I have a text box when i click on it the default keyboard of device will pop up from the bottom of the screen. But the text box which i clicked also will be on the bottom, hence when the keyboard pops up the text box is under the keyboard so my entered text will not be seen and also i don't want to shift the text box to the top of the screen. Please suggest any code for disabling the default keyboard so that i can use my own one where ever i want on the screen.
Thanks.
To stop a text input from requesting the Software Keyboard you should set your textinput.needsSoftKeyboard to false

I have an application where user needs to input some text. When I click the editText area a keyboard appears and then I input the text after which I have to press the "back" key on my phone to hide the keyboard and then press the submit button which is getting annoying.
How do I get that "ok" button that does it for me which I am used to? I have Android version 2.3.6 on my phone. Is this even available at this API level ?
Use onEditorActionListener http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView.OnEditorActionListener.html on your EditText.

I need my soft keyboard input to have both return button AND done button so that the user can write paragraphs in my EditText and click on Done to close the keyboard. Is this possible?
I've tried:
android:inputType="textMultiLine"
android:imeOptions="actionDone"
together but it didn't work.
PS: I'm testing on Samsung keyboard type.
No, I believe it's not possible prior to API level 11 (3.0).
The same issue cropped up here (discussed in the comments to the accepted answer):
Android Soft keyboard action button
From the final comment:
Looking at a few apps on my phone, it seems common to have the multiline box last, with a visible "Done" or "Send" button below it (e.g. Email app).
I am relatively new to Android development. My requirement is such that I have a multiple line input box(such as comment box); as the user clicks the box a soft-key keyboard appears on screen which has either an "Enter" button or "Next" Button as an Action key.
I want the keyboard to have both, "Enter" as well as "Next" Button and also the comma(,) button.
I have searched throughout the web. They only have options to specify the "android:imeOptions" tag. But this option does not give the desired output as I need.
Kindly help.
PS: I do not want to create a custom keyboard. Just want to modify the existing soft-key keyboard to be displayed.
Also, I am working on Android v2.2
Thanks for your help.

There is, at most, one action key for an input method editor (a.k.a., soft keyboard). You cannot have two. Depending on the input method editor, you may have zero, as the input method editor is not obligated to show an action key.
