Remove the error indicator from a previously-validated EditText widget

android, android-edittext

Solution

protected void onPause () {
    TextView textView = ...; // fetch it as appropriate
    textView.setError(null);
}

Because as mentioned in the documentation:

If the error is null, the error message and icon will be cleared.

Problem

I am using an EditText widget, and I am validating it with the `setError()` method of EditText and it validates correctly. But I have an button in the same screen that redirects to another activity. And when I press back button and come back to the screen the validation still appears. So on the activity `OnPause` event I want to remove the validation of the EditText. How is it possible.
