thank you Amit, I am using [ChipsLibrary](http://www.androidviews.net/2012/11/chips-text-fields/). i have edited some code in the library to achieve the UI of the screen. As I am adding other stuff as chip data rather than contacts or mail-id's back functionality is not working properly. Means when we press back key entire chip is not deleting it's coming to edit mode. How can I solve this? Can you plz help me... Thank you – Sruthi Mamidala May 26 '14 at 07:50
