You are using the wrong syntax for xpath. The syntax is:

Input Text    xpath=//android.widget.EditText[@resource-id='name']

The format is described in the Selenium2Library documentation, under the section "Locating or Specifying Elements"

Try like this:

xpath = "//*[@resource-id='name']/android.widget.EditText"

I believe it solves your problem.
