I need to open android text keyboard that starts from numpad. I would like to access both numpad and alphabetical characters in same keyboard like android:inputType="text". But, I want to see numpad part first (like in picture) when keyboard opened.
As far as I know, there is no InputType option that obtain this result.
I found this answer that shows how to use privateImeOptions to change soft keyboard settings but couldn't find further information.
Is there any way to achieve this?
Thanks
I have made android app. my client ask me that change default language at soft keyboard case by case. one case, keyboard should be English keyboard, another, Korean keyboard.

When I click in a TextEdit in my Android app in the emulator, it wants to make any characters I type in underscored - why would that be? And then it brings up a "helpful" soft keyboard with a number of strange symbols on it - strange to me, that is; they're probably perfectly normal to somebody fluent in an Asian languages.
For some reason, the default keyboard language for emulators is Japanese (I think). Just long press on the edit text, select "Input Method" from the context menu and change the language to English in the preference screen.
I have some edit boxes in my app, some of them I will input English text, some of them I will input Spanish.
I'm using the standard android soft keyboard, however as my device locale is set to English, when I type Spanish in one of my "Spanish" edit boxes, the English corrective text/predictive text makes this difficult.
The only workaround I've found, is to go into the device settings and change the language over, but this is quite annoying.
Is there anyway I could have some kind of button, that when clicked would dynamically change the soft keyboards language setting? Is this exposed via any Intents?

Try to slide your finger across the spacebar on your keyboard to change languages.

No, sorry.
However, you can use textNoSuggestions with your android:inputType attribute on the EditText to try to get rid of the suggestions.
In the main phone settings you can choose input languages and then you can swipe the space bar to switch.
Whenever I click on textarea on the webview, it displays a keyboard which is showing me characters in English, but whenever I start typing, my typed characters get converted into some other language (Chinese) and on rendering only that other language words are rendered instead of English.
if you are using 1.6 or higher then go to
menu>setting>language & keyboard and uncheck all the check box expect android keyboard.
may this help you?
