Answer 1

try this

@Override
public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
    boolean ret = super.dispatchTouchEvent(event);
    InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
    imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(mCurretnView.getWindowToken(), 0);  
    return ret;
}

or

editText.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {

    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
        imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(mCurretnView.getWindowToken(), 0);  
        return false;
    }
});
