title: Arabic language is not supported with the use of inputType
body: <p>I had an issue with setting hint in Arabic language. Please refer <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18572800/alternating-edit-text-hint-not-visible-for-arabic-language?noredirect=1#comment27329187_18572800">Alternating edit text hint not visible for Arabic language</a>
  for details. The issue was with the use of inputType in the xml. I have removed it and now a normal keypad appears onclick of the edittext field. But I want the user to enter numbers only and I want numerical keypad to appear. How to do it?</p>
  
  <p>In short, the use of inputType will not display the Arabic content and if it is not used then I am getting alphabetical keypad.</p>
  
  <p>Please help, thanks in advance</p>
