Why don't you want the keyboard to hide when the input is complete? — Suhayl SH, Apr 24 '17 at 05:40
Hi, have you tried forcing it to appear in any way? Such as http://stackoverflow.com/a/10420979/7813290 — Jamin, Apr 24 '17 at 05:40

you should use TextWatcher to know when u complete typing, and then u can hide keyboard as below:

 EditText editText;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    editText = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText);
    editText.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
        @Override
        public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {

        }

        @Override
        public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {

            if(count == 5){

            InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
            imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(editText.getWindowToken(), 0);}

        }

        @Override
        public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {

        }
    });

}

so in this code after typing five characters the keyboard will automatically hide.

Try it.

Call this function whenever the input gets complete

InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Activity.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
//Hide:
imm.toggleSoftInput(InputMethodManager.HIDE_IMPLICIT_ONLY, 0);

private void hideKeyboard() {   
    // Check if no view has focus:
    View view = this.getCurrentFocus();
    if (view != null) {
        InputMethodManager inputManager = (InputMethodManager) this.getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
        inputManager.hideSoftInputFromWindow(view.getWindowToken(), InputMethodManager.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS);
    }
}

InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);

editText.requestFocus();

imm.showSoftInput(editText, 0);

Try this (in editText you should put your own editText).
