Write this code in manifest.xml file for 'SecondActivity' Activity.

<activity name="EditContactActivity"

</activity>

Answer 2

Have you tried:

InputMethodManager im = (InputMethodManager)
this.getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);

im.hideSoftInputFromWindow(this.getCurrentFocus().getWindowToken(),
InputManagerMethod.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS);

This is the code I throw in at points I want to hide the keyboard.

Answer 3

Solved using a variation of the technique posted by phalt:

InputMethodManager im = (InputMethodManager) this.getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
im.hideSoftInputFromWindow(getWindow().getDecorView().getWindowToken(), InputMethodManager.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS);

This code works correctly during onCreate/onStart/onResume, since doesn't rely on a focused view to get the window token from.

If In Fragment Class

@Override
    public void onResume()
    {
        getActivity().getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);
        super.onResume();
        }

If In Activity Class

 @Override
    public void onResume()
    {
        this.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_ALWAYS_HIDDEN);
        super.onResume();
        FetchLocation fl = new FetchLocation(mContext, locationResult);
    }

Answer 5

you can use like this also:

InputMethodManager imm;

Write below line in onCreate() Method:

imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);

And this line is in onclick of button:

imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(arg0.getWindowToken(), 0);

Example:

public class FirstActivity extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    findViewById(R.id.button1).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View arg0) {

            imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(arg0.getWindowToken(), 0);
            Intent intent = new Intent(FirstActivity.this, SecondActivity.class);
            startActivity(intent);
        }
    });
}
}
