Question

I have an edittext in my layout, like this:

//...    
<EditText
    android:id="@+id/editText_username"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:hint="@string/string_username" >
</EditText>
//...

And when the layout is shown, the keyboard appears with the focus on the edittext, but this just happens in ICS… And I don’t want that the keyboard appears automatically, just when the edittext is clicked.

How can I do this?

The initial state of the keyboard is configurable in your Android manifest, like this:

<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden"/>
