EditText error message with keyboard change affecting the theme/style
<p>I have two edit texts, with validation to ensure that a value was entered for each box. </p>

<p>The problem is, when the keyboard is not displaying everything is ok, but when the keyboard is displayed the hover validation moves above the edittext and has a white background when it should be black.</p>

<p>Hopefully the images should show it better.</p>

<p>N.B it only happens on the below edittext, the top one is fine as the keyboard does not cover it once it is opened.</p>

<p>I have set the keyboard to not resize the screen, i.e.
<code>android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustPan"</code></p>

<p><strong>I think it may be an Acer issue on the Acer A501 tablet, as my Samsung Galaxy does not have this problem.</strong></p>

<pre><code>    private TextWatcher mileageListener = new TextWatcher() {

    @Override
    public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before,int count) {}

    @Override
    public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count,int after) {}

    @Override
    public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
         String start = mStartMileage.getText().toString().trim();

        // check that start mileage has been entered
        if ("".equals(start)) {
            mStartMileage.setError(getText(R.string.validation_enter_start_mileage));
        }
    }
};
</code></pre>
