Solution 1:

Add this to your manifest file

  android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden"

as

<activity android:name=".youractivity"
              android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden"

    </activity>

Solution 2:

Hide it by :

editText.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_NULL);

and when you need to show it use :

editText.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_CLASS_TEXT);
editText.requestFocus();
InputMethodManagermgr= (InputMethodManager) getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
mgr.showSoftInput(editText, InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED);

Solution 3:

android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants"
 android:focusableInTouchMode="true"

add this two lines at top view

ex:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants" <-----
    android:focusableInTouchMode="true" > <-----
    ....
    EditText
    .....
    </RelativeLayout>
