onClick event is not triggering | Android

I made a very simple test application with one activity and one layout. The onClick doesn't trigger the first time it is pressed, as it should.

The activity:

package com.example.mytest;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        final EditText ed1 = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);

        ed1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "1", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
                        .show();

            }

        });
    }

}

The layout:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" >

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/editText1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:ems="10" >

        <requestFocus />
    </EditText>

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/editText2"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_below="@+id/editText1"
        android:ems="10" />

</RelativeLayout>

If you run this application, and click on the second editText and then back on the first one, it will not trigger the onClick. You can keep selecting back and forth and it will not trigger the onClick at all. I need this basic functionality, but haven't been able to think of a way to get it to work. Ideas?

Notice

I have tried all of the methods recommended on my API level 16 physical device and my API level 8 emulator, but I get the same problem.

Clarification

When editText1 is focused and is clicked on, then the onClick method fires. If editText2 is focussed, and then editText1 is clicked, it doesn't fire. Big problem.

Its the most simplest way to work with date picker.

private DatePickerDialog datePickerDialog;
EditText etJoiningDate;
etJoiningDate=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.etJoiningDate);

etJoiningDate.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {

    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {

        switch (event.getAction()){
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:

                final Calendar cldr = Calendar.getInstance();
                int day = cldr.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH);
                int month = cldr.get(Calendar.MONTH);
                int year = cldr.get(Calendar.YEAR);
                // date picker dialog
                datePickerDialog = new DatePickerDialog(TestActivity.this,
                        new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {
                            @Override
                            public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int monthOfYear, int dayOfMonth) {
                                etJoiningDate.setText(dayOfMonth + "/" + (monthOfYear + 1) + "/" + year);
                            }
                        }, year, month, day);
                datePickerDialog.show();

                break;
        }


        return false;
    }

Simple, Reuseable Kotlin Solution

I started with two custom extension functions:

val MotionEvent.up get() = action == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP

fun MotionEvent.isIn(view: View): Boolean {
    val rect = Rect(view.left, view.top, view.right, view.bottom)
    return rect.contains((view.left + x).toInt(), (view.top + y).toInt())
}

Then listen to touches on the Edittext. This will only fire if initial ACTION_DOWN event was originally on the Edittext, and still is.

myEdittext.setOnTouchListener { view, motionEvent ->
    if (motionEvent.up && motionEvent.isIn(view)) {
        // Talk your action here
    }
    false
}
