EditText input method action not working when setting imeActionLabel

Question

I have an Edittext with imeoptions asactiongo. and I triggered my event when pressing soft keyboard enter button.

mModelId.setOnE

I've checked at Android 2.1 and Android 4.0 versions and your code is working fine. IME_ACTION_GO event is reported in case EditText has singleLine option specified to true. In case it is specified to false actionId has IME_NULL value independently of the setImeActionLabel was called or no.

In the TextView.onKeyDown method i've found that IME_NULL actionId is used when KEYCODE_ENTER is detected

mEditor.mInputContentType.onEditorActionListener.onEditorAction(
                                this, EditorInfo.IME_NULL, event))

Perhaps it is custom keyboard issue. Do you use any? If so try these changes:

instead of

mModelId.setImeActionLabel("Search Model", KeyEvent.KEYCODE_ENTER);

should be

mModelId.setImeActionLabel("Search Model", EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_GO);
