Removing the focus of the Editbox in android - android

all
When i clicked in the EditText box to type something the border color of the EditTet box was changed.I dont need that,but i want to enter the text in the EditText box.
I tried a xml tag tag
android:focusable="false".
But its not working .How to do this?
Thanks in advance.

this probably will work..
editText.setOnFocusChangeListener(new OnFocusChangeListener(){
protected void onFocuschanged(){
editText.setBackground(#android:drawable.editbox_background);
}
});
go to editText in xml and add this tag,
android:gravity="left"

Easiest way I can think of is just use the editbox_background_normal ninepatch image and make yourself a selector that uses this image for the background in all states (default, focused, pressed) that way the view will not appear to the user to change at all.
Then just set the background of the EditText to your selector.

Underline text inside Editbox

As I enter text in editText it should automatically underline the text I entered. I need like as I continue to enter text in editText it draw like in background.
Can someone help me.
Use view with 1 dp of height and custom width with green background , inside framelayout over your editText, and handle custom_width same as you are handling image_width.
For underline effect in EditText you need to add this
//initialize edittext before
editText.setPaintFlags(Paint.UNDERLINE_TEXT_FLAG);

Watch image: Click Here
you should be able to use
android:cursorVisible="false"
in your xml or
editTxt.setCursorVisible(false);
from java
EDIT:
Use an OnFocusChangeListener on the EditText to get a callback when it gets and loses focus and use the setCursorVisible() method to set the cursor to whichever state you need.
you can set android:textCursorDrawable="#null" in your layout

How to give the hint of edittextbox of dialog which is created by code in android

I am creating a dialog box where there is a edit box I want to set the hint of editbox how can I do it.
please help me
thank you
Every EditText is also TextView and the TextView defines a method setHint():
final void setHint(int resid)
Doesn't this work?
EDIT Btw by edit box you mean EditText right?
I am not sure whether this works but might help you,
You could have initialized your Dialog with something like this,
Dialog dialog = null;
And now to Initialize your EditText you should use something like this,
edittext = (EditText) dialog. findViewById(R.id.editbox);
Now use the below method. It should do the trick,
edittext.setHint("Hint");
The same you can provide in the XML file also by adding :
android:hint="Text For Hint"
tag.
For dynamically adding it (in your code and not in XML), Boris & Androi have aldready mentioned it, so wont repeat it.
If you wont be changing once set, then I guess adding in XML is preferred rather than in code.
