@jennifer --- android:enabled="false" use this in XML. – Rahul Baradia May 22 '12 at 10:00

Refer EDITTEXT

        edt.setClickable(false);
    edt.setFocusable(false);


      ***Layout***

<EditText android:id="@+id/edt"
        android:layout_width="200px" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="" android:textSize="18sp"  android:maxLength="15">
    </EditText>

I am using for this problem, this solution:

valueText.setEnabled(false);
valueText.setClickable(false);
valueText.setFocusable(false);

//Just for better text vision
valueText.setTextColor(Color.WHITE);
