From official doc

requestFocus()

  • Call this to try to give focus to a specific View or to one of its descendants. A View will not actually take focus if it is not focusable (isFocusable() returns false),

requestFocusFromTouch

  • Call this to try to give focus to a specific view or to one of its descendants. This is a special variant of requestFocus() that will allow views that are not focusable in touch mode to request focus when they are touched.

  • Returns boolean Whether this view or one of its descendants actually took focus.
