    kgiannakakis, you didn't understand me, I don't want to show or hide the input method (Keyboard or what ever is selected by the user) I'm seeking for a way to show the standar android Dialog window where the user can select (switch) between different input methods installed on the phone? – z_z_z_z Jan 16 '11 at 09:39

From inside an Activity:

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

Or if you have a Context object (or getContext() (a subclassed view)):

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