Well I don't know whether it will help you or not. but am sharing because some other may be benifited. I got the same issue in my Kindle tablet.

And I have solved this just by adding the simple attribute to the edittext.

<EditText
     .........
     android:textCursorDrawable="@drawable/Black"
/>

And its done. Now it will show each character you types.

If it helps you, I will suggest you to write the above attribute everytime you declare an edittext, even though this issue doesn't occur.

Looks like your problem is this:

When user clicks in the EditText to type, the keyboard pops up and hides the EditText, thus the user can't see what he's typing

For this, you can put that EditText into a ScrollView so that when keyboard pops-up, Android scrolls the EditText up. This way,the user can see what he's typing.
