Clear text in EditText when entered

Also you can use code below

editText.getText().clear();

just use the android:hint attribute in your EditText. This text shows up when the box is empty and not focused, but disappears upon selecting the EditText box.

First you need to call setContentView(R.layout.main) then all other initialization.

Please try below Code.

public class Trackfolio extends Activity implements OnClickListener {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    public EditText editText;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        editText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText1);
        editText.setOnClickListener(this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View v) {
        editText.getText().clear(); //or you can use editText.setText("");
    }
}
