How to clear EditText when it has focus and any keyboard key is pressed

I am trying to clean EditText when it has focus and the soft keyboard appears and any key is pressed. I am using OnFocusChangeListener method to detect when EditText has focus, but I do not know how to implement the keyboard event in the same method.

Can anyone help me? Thank you. Kind Regards

You can use also use the setOnFocusChangeListener of the Editext

 private boolean isFirstTime = true;

    FIRST_EDITTEXT.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
        @Override
        public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
              if(s.toString().length()>0 && isFirstTime ){
                FIRST_EDITTEXT.setText("");
                isFirstTime = false;
               }
        }

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

        @Override
        public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
        }
    });

Now if we are one the SECOND EditText we will true the isFirstTime boolean , for the First EditText like below.

 SECOND_EDITTEXT.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
            @Override
            public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {

                isFirstTime = true;

            }

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

            @Override
            public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
            }
        });
