EditText with custom shape (drawable)

To create EditText with our own shape, create a drawable XML to define our custom shape:

res/drawable/myshape.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:shape="rectangle"
    android:padding="10dp">
    <solid android:color="#505050"/>
    <corners
        android:bottomRightRadius="10dp"
        android:bottomLeftRadius="10dp"
        android:topLeftRadius="10dp"
        android:topRightRadius="10dp"/>
</shape>

Reference my shape in layout xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout 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"
    android:layout_margin="20dp"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context="com.blogspot.android_er.androidedittextchanged.MainActivity">

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/title"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
        android:autoLink="web"
        android:text="http://android-er.blogspot.com/"
        android:textStyle="bold"/>

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/edittext1"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:hint="normal EditText"/>
    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/edittext2"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:hint="EditText with custom shape"
        android:textColorHint="#B0B0B0"
        android:textColor="#F0F0F0"
        android:background="@drawable/myshape" />

</LinearLayout>
