Setting input type in EditTextView programmatically makes the cursor go back to the start of EditTextView

When the user typed # in EditTextView I set its input type to InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_VISIBLE_PASSWORD. By doing that the effect was the cursor is going back to the start of the EditTextView.

You should be able to add something like the following after setting the input type

editText.setSelection(editText.getText().length());

I know It's not exactly ideal but I'm pretty sure it's the only way to get the behavior you want.
