Android EditText - Not able to enter value

Question

I'm a newbie in Android development. Recently, I have been facing a problem in the EditTexts used in my app which I'm currently running in Emulator. On clicking the EditText it receives focus, but on typing something I m unable to enter values.

Any help would be appreciable.

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:padding="0dp"
    android:weightSum="1" >

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight=".25"
        android:text="@string/amt"
        android:textSize="15sp" />

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/amount"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
        android:background="@drawable/edit_text"
        android:inputType="number" />
</LinearLayout>

Answer 1

Remove this line from xml file

android:inputType="number"

and if you want to enter anything then set input type of EditText

 android:inputType="textNoSuggestions"
