I want to click a edittext and show dialog date so I try

mDateDisplay = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.dateDisplay);
    mDateDisplay.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
            if (hasFocus) {
                showDialog(DATE_DIALOG_ID);
            }
        }
    });

The dialog will show if mDateDisplay is a button

but I want to use edittext

what should I do?

android dialog android-edittext listener
Edit
Report

You can use OnClickListener event to handle the dialog box but after disabling the android:focusableInTouchMode of EditText in the xml file like this. eg - android:focusableInTouchMode="false".

Because when the EditText is first touched it calls the focus event and on second touch it call the click event so you have to disable the focus event first.
