Add android:singleLine = "true" to your EditText

<EditText
            android:id="@+id/inputSearch"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="50dp"
            android:background="@drawable/edit_text_border"
            android:digits="abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:hint="Search jobs"
            android:singleLine="true"
            android:imeOptions="actionDone"
            android:inputType="textVisiblePassword" />

Hope it works

you are doing it in correct way but than also test it in another devices because imeOptions do not work on all devices,particularly some older ones. if you want to do this dynamically than this is the way

editText.setImeOptions(EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE);

and to track "Done" button use this code

editText.setOnEditorActionListener(new EditText.OnEditorActionListener() {
@Override
public boolean onEditorAction(EditText v, int actionId, KeyEvent event) {
 if (actionId == EditorInfo.IME_ACTION_DONE) {
  //do here your stuff f
  return true;
 }
 return false;
 }
});

Try to use android:imeActionLabel="Next"

<EditText android:id="@+id/inputSearch"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="50dp"
    android:hint="Search jobs"
    android:gravity="center"
android:imeActionLabel="Done"
    android:imeOptions="actionDone"
    android:background="@drawable/edittext_bg"
    android:digits="abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890"
    android:inputType="textVisiblePassword"/>

Hope this will work

I have found this issue on older devices. What has worked is to set android:inputType=""

as well as android:imeOptions="actionDone"
