I put the following menu option in my application to display the
keyboard:
case R.id.keyboard:
Toast.makeText(this, "Back button removes keyboard.",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager)getSystemService
(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);
imm.showSoftInput(mListView, InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED);
return true;

I hope that helps.
