EditText with soft keyboard and “Back” button

You can override when the keyboard disappears using this method:

  public boolean onKeyPreIme(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
   if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK && 
       event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_UP) {
           // Do your thing here
           return false;
   }
   return super.dispatchKeyEvent(event);
  }

Taken from my other answer @ : Android: Error popup on EditText doesn’t move down when keyboard goes away
