                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="60dp"
                app:hintTextAppearance="@style/TextLabel"
                android:textColorHint="#ffffff"
                android:layout_below="@+id/input_layout_email"
                >

 <RelativeLayout
                android:id="@+id/password_layout"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="45dp"
                android:layout_marginTop="4dp"
                android:gravity="center_vertical"
                >

                <TextView
                    android:id="@+id/txtPreview"
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
                    android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
                    android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
                    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
                    android:gravity="center_vertical"
                    android:text="¿"
                    android:textColor="#548a72"
                    android:textSize="32sp"/>

                <com.hurix.bookreader.views.ClearableEditText
                    android:id="@+id/passwordEditText"
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="35dp"
                    android:layout_toLeftOf="@+id/txtPreview"
                    android:ems="10"

EditText should be direct child of TextInputLayout. You have nested TextInputLayout with other layouts. Try something like this:

<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">
    <EditText
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:hint="Hello"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout>

I have tried it. If I give TextInputLayout directly to editview, then the hint is not appearing on the edittext instead it is displaying within the relative layout. – Seshasri Seetalam Sep 12 '16 at 09:46
Then Share that code please so that i can look where the issue is. :) – Dhananjay Sarsonia Sep 16 '16 at 12:25
I had a similar issue. Maybe you can try this link: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41981312/android-display-textview-in-the-right-side-of-edittext-which-is-in-the-textinpu/43884289 if you want to add a textview at the end of EditText inside TextInputLayout. – Yesha May 03 '18 at 11:16
