    <requestFocus />
</EditText>

You need to Edit your AVD and set both :

Keyboard Lid Support and Keyboard Support to YES

Then restart your AVD. May be it will work.

See avd image below:-

EDIT : To enable soft keyboard in Genymotion

Go to Settings -> Language & input and open the Default item under Keyboard & Input Methods. There is a Hardware setting that you can toggle on/off. When it is on you use your physical keyboard and when it is off the standard soft keyboard should pop-up whenever a text field gets focus.
