Android: Combine inputType:phone and inputType:numberPassword

Question

I want to show the 'only digits' keyboard when user taps on the editText. This can be achieved by

android:inputType="phone"
android:digits="0123456789"

I also want my editText to hide the content. Which can be achieved by

android:inputType="numberPassword"

I tried to do both combined by doing:

android:inputType="phone"
android:digits="0123456789"
android:password="true"

This worked but android:password="true" is deprecated. Is this possible to achieve in any other way?

Something is wrong and pipe (`|`) is ignored in this case (I just tried). So, looks like `android:inputType="numberPassword"` is the best shot you have got unless someone comes up with really cool solution. — Rohit5k2, Mar 14 '16 at 13:06
why don't you try to do this in code. I guess pipe would work there. — Rohit5k2, Mar 14 '16 at 13:19
I was expecting that to work. Tried that just now. Unfortunately, didn't work. — Srujan Barai, Mar 14 '16 at 13:28

try this:

 android:inputType="number|numberPassword"

or you can also do this:

 android:inputType="phone|numberPassword"

That allows only numbers but that will open the regular keyboard. I want the 'only digits' keyboard to pop open. – Srujan Barai Mar 14 '16 at 12:59
I guess you mean `phone|numberPassword` but that isnt working. I already tried that. – Srujan Barai Mar 14 '16 at 13:07
