I would like to display Numberic keyboard to the user first even though my AutoCompleteTextView's input type is text.

I read this How do I default to numeric keyboard on EditText without forcing numeric input? question and tried to fix it. But it is only showing numeric keyboard. It won't allow me to input Text.

I would like to show first "numberic" input but also allow to enter "text" to AutoCompleteTextView. Any solution?

Edit

I am using Galaxy Tab 2 with 4.0.4 OS Version

When screen launch, following keyboard appears.

But I want to switch keyboard to "numeric" input (which appears when we press "123" button)

@mtetno i edited my question. can you please refer it again.. – Chintan Rathod Sep 12 '14 at 09:46
i guess u need to set input type..to "numberPassword" – KOTIOS Sep 12 '14 at 09:50
But how can i do that? I also require to allow user for input of alphabetic. If i set "numeric", user is not allowed to input alphabetic. – Chintan Rathod Sep 12 '14 at 09:51
@mtetno nope.. numberPassword will not allow user to enter alphabetic characters. – Chintan Rathod Sep 12 '14 at 10:00
