Two EditText One has to be completed before pass to the other

Question

First of all sorry if I have mistakes on my english.

I'm quite new to android. My problem here is that I have two EditText, call them Name and Phone, on the activity. So What I want is that the user can't write down in Phone if before, the EditText Name wasn't completed.

I have tried implementing the OnFocusChange method but I don't know if I'm implementing it well.

So there is my class code, where "et_nom" is the EditText Name and "et_tel" is the EditText Phone. What I'm doing wrong?

Thank You

public class MainActivity extends Activity implements OnClickListener, OnFocusChangeListener{

    EditText et_nom, et_tel;
    RadioButton rg_mascle,rg_femella;
    Switch sw_carnet;
    RatingBar rb_estrellas;
    String texto;
    Button b_enviar;
    Intent intent;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.primera);
        et_nom = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.et_nom);
        et_tel = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.et_tel);
        rg_mascle = (RadioButton)findViewById(R.id.rg_mascle);
        rg_femella = (RadioButton)findViewById(R.id.rg_femella);
        sw_carnet = (Switch)findViewById(R.id.sw_carnet);
        rb_estrellas = (RatingBar)findViewById(R.id.rb_estrellas);
        b_enviar = (Button)findViewById(R.id.b_enviar1);
        b_enviar.setOnClickListener(this);
        et_tel.setFocusable(false);
        et_tel.setClickable(true);

    }

    public void onRadioButtonClicked(View v)
    {
        boolean checked = ((RadioButton) v).isChecked();

    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {

        if (v.getId() == R.id.b_enviar1)
        {
            intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, Segunda_Act.class);
            startActivity(intent);
        }

    }

    @Override
    public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {

        if(v.getId() == R.id.et_nom && hasFocus)
        {
            et_tel.setFocusable(true);
        }

    }


}

You may want to look at implementing a text change watcher instead, and enable or disable the second EditText based on the contents of the first:

    editText1.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {

        @Override
        public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        }

        @Override
        public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        }

        @Override
        public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
            if(editText1.getText() != null && !editText1.getText().equals(""))
            {
                editText2.setEnabled(true);
            }
            else
            {
                editText2.setEnabled(false);
            }
        }
    });

This will enable the second edit text if there is any text in the first, and disable the second if the first is empty.

It doesn't work. I'm implementing it on the OnCreate method, is it right? — Sergio, Oct 20 '14 at 19:42
what part doesn't work? were you able to debug the event, or is the event not firing? also, you will want to set the second EditText to enabled=false in the layout xml so it starts out as disabled. — invertigo, Oct 20 '14 at 19:47
