android WebView - content not editable

I use a WebView to authorize a user on a social network using their API.

My WebView loads a form with 2 EditTexts(or whatever they're called in web development) and a button.

The strange issue: the keyboard does not show up when clicking on an EditText in the form BUT if the activity gets paused and resumed (for example I press HOME and then come back) the EditTexts become editable and I'm able to enter login data.

LogCat output for complete procedure (opening page, pausing activity and coming back) goes below. Yeah, I also noticed the wrong spelled "false". Any ideas?

I have found something in the Google group try this

webview.requestFocus(View.FOCUS_DOWN);
        webview.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
                switch (event.getAction()) {
                    case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
                    case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
                        if (!v.hasFocus()) {
                            v.requestFocus();
                        }
                        break;
                }
                return false;
            }
        });
