Decimal separator comma (‘,’) with numberDecimal inputType in EditText

by

A workaround (until Google fix this bug) is to use an EditText with android:inputType="numberDecimal" and android:digits="0123456789.,".

Then add a TextChangedListener to the EditText with the following afterTextChanged:

public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
    double doubleValue = 0;
    if (s != null) {
        try {
            doubleValue = Double.parseDouble(s.toString().replace(',', '.'));
        } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
            //Error
        }
    }
    //Do something with doubleValue
}
