Hide the soft keyboard in Android

We can force Android to hide the virtual keyboard using the inputMethodManager.

For example you have EditText like this:

EditText myText = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.login);

relativeLayout.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {

       public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {

             InputMethodManager inputMethodManager = (InputMethodManager)

                              getSystemService(activity.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);

             //here activity is your activity class

             inputMethodManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow(myText.getWindowToken(),0);

             return false;

      }

});
