Question

In my application i have edit text as follows.

EditText1   EditText2
EditText3   EditText4
EditText5   EditText6

in xml i declared android:imeOptions="actionNext" and also i write

          editText1.setOnEditorActionListener(new EditText.OnEditorActionListener() {
        public boolean onEditorAction(TextView v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                 if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE ||   actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_NEXT) {
                     editText2.requestFocus();

                  return false;
                  }
                return false;
            }
         });

Now in virtual key board in edit text 1 if i press next i am getting focus into edit text3 instead of editText2 etc.

How can i get focus on EditText2 instead of edittext3
for my application user only press “Next or done” he never goes for trackball.

You could try adding the android:nextFocusDown attribute in your EditTexts.
