How do I hide the soft keyboard when changing tabs?

Question

EDIT : Seems I\'m not making myself clear. What I need is a way to hide the soft keyboard whenever i replace the fragment I am in. How do I go about doing this ?

programmatically you could use, capturing the view of the active activity on the screen of the device.

public final void onTabReselected(Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
        View focus = getCurrentFocus();
        if (focus != null) {
            hiddenKeyboard(focus);
        }
    }
public final void onTabselected(Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
        View focus = getCurrentFocus();
        if (focus != null) {
            hiddenKeyboard(focus);
        }
    }
public final void onTabUnselected(Tab tab, FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction) {
        View focus = getCurrentFocus();
        if (focus != null) {
            hiddenKeyboard(focus);
        }
    }

private void hiddenKeyboard(View v) {
        InputMethodManager keyboard = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
        keyboard.hideSoftInputFromWindow(v.getWindowToken(), 0);
    }
