Question

Okay so I have a custom view inside a dialog but its onKeyDown never get called. I tried onKeyPreIme too but didn’t work and setting dialog’s setCancelable to true didn’t help either.

edit :

//Removed all unnecessary code

public class CustomView extends LinearLayout
{    

    @Override
    public boolean onKeyDown (int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
    {
            if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK && event.getRepeatCount() == 0)
            {           
                   //do stuff here
                    return true;

            }    
            return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);         
    }
}
public class CustomDialog
{
    Dialog dialog;
    public class CustomDialog(Context context)
    {
         dialog = new Dialog(context);
         dialog.setContentView(R.layout.test);// the test.xml has CustomView

    }

}

Move your onKeyDown logics to an OnKeyListener implementation and register it in your View’s constructor.
