EditText no more than x decimals android

I have a EditText where I enter a number.

What I want is to forbid this number to have more than "x" number of decimals, for example, three.

I have tried to do it by using the listener, but I don´t find exactly the solution.......

precioProducto.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher(){
                public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {

                }
                public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {

                }
                public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
                    String[] numeroDecimal = s.toString().split(",");
                    if(numeroDecimal[1].length()==3){

                    }
                }
            });

How can i "lock" the EditText to be more than 3 decimals??

Thanks a lot.

I tried what Vinay Wadhwa told me, but after trying a little bit and so on, sometimes(not everytimes), the application breaks giving me the next log:

add a class variable which stores the last previous value of the edit text

say String lastVal

 precioProducto.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher(){
                    public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {

                    }
                    public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {

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

                        String[] numeroDecimal = s.toString().split(",");
                        if(numeroDecimal[1].length()>=3){
                          precioProducto.setText(lastVal);
                        }
                        lastVal=s.toString();
                    }
                });
