Here is the example exactly which you are looking for. check this

Here is the simple logic with `Arrays and addTextChangedListener for EditText

In Change the block of code as like this.

if (textlength {
   if ((String)listview_array[i].contains(et.getText().toString()))
   {
     array_sort.add(listview_array[i]);
   }

I have replace equalsIgnorecase with contains. Please check the difference here
