I'm having the exact same problem. I've implemented a class that subclasses TextView, implements onCheckIsTextEditor and onCreateInputConnetion, and has an android:inputType. Unfortunately neither method is ever called for me. I'm calling showSoftInput on this view, and I'm getting absolutely nothing in the way of error logging information. I know that this works as if I point showSoftInput to an EditText on the same layout the keyboard will pop up.
Clearly, other people have gotten this to work, so it's not impossible, but I'd love to know what exactly I'm missing here.
