How to show numeric software keyboard on Android Tv?

Question

I am trying to show numeric software keyboard on Android Tv when edittext is focused.

I have already tried these;

editText.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_PHONE);

editText.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER);

editText.setRawInputType(Configuration.KEYBOARD_12KEY);

android:inputType="phone"

android:inputType="number"

but they only disable text characters, don't make them invisible.

Is there a way to show phone type software keyboard on Android Tv?

sorry i forgot to explain, i'm talking about android software keyboard — alian, Dec 09 '15 at 13:27
I don't believe you can show a numeric keyboard on the TV itself. It's not part of the Leanback Keyboard. — Nick Felker, Dec 14 '15 at 04:26

You can check out Input Method Editor on the Android TV developer site. It has a sample there for SoftKeyboard.

Hope this helps!

Your links are for Android, not Android TV specific, and `android:inputType="phone"` is not working on Android TV – Nutriz Feb 21 '20 at 08:39
