Question

I have a listview application. When I run the application, setTextFilterEnabled() is working because there is a keyboard. I installed this application into a real Android phone. setTextFilterEnabled() is not working because of no keyboard. How it will work? The phone contains only four buttons and no keybord. How this is possble?

Or what should I do?

Answer 1

Try holding down the menu button. This brings up the virtual keyboard. If that works, you can give your users a hint (for example, using a Toast) that they can do that. Or, you can provide a button somewhere that pops open the virtual keyboard (have a look at InputMethodManager).
