How to implement: click a button, then user can input something to a EditText

There is an EditText(edit) and a Button(btn) on screen.

User can click the EditText to input something, and I also want when user click the button, user can input something to the EditText too.

I tried:

btn.setOnClickListener(new View.OnclickListener() {
   public void onClick(View v) {
       edit.requestFocus();
       edit.performClick();
   }
});

But it doesn't work. Although edit get the focus, but the IME doesn't show.

performClick() works only when you implement the onClickListener for that particular View.

So, do this in the onClick of your EditText or Button

edit.requestFocus();
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.showSoftInput(edit, InputMethodManager.SHOW_IMPLICIT);
