I was making an application for me kind of in jest and I came across a problem, ListView of Android Studio does not ignore the Portuguese accents.

Could anyone post a code, would you like to resolve this? Type the word search by ignoring the accents.

Follow the code I'm using below.

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
    private ListView lv;
    private EditText et;
    private String[] lst;
    private ArrayList < String > lst_Encontrados = new ArrayList < String > ();

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.lvlist);
        et = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.etlist);

        lst = new String[] {
            "Cáncer", "Cancer", "Mamá"
        };

        lv.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter < String > (this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, lst));
        CarregarEncontrados();

        et.addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
            public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
                // Abstract Method of TextWatcher Interface.
            }

            public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
                // Abstract Method of TextWatcher Interface.
            }


            public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
                CarregarEncontrados();

                lv.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter < String > (MainActivity.this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, lst_Encontrados));
            }
        });

        lv.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {@Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView <? > arg0, View view, int position, long id) {

                AlertDialog.Builder test = new AlertDialog.Builder(MainActivity.this);

                if (((TextView) view).getText().equals("Cáncer")) {
                    test.setTitle("hemoglobina");
                    test.setMessage("doidera");
                    test.setNeutralButton("OK", null);
                    test.show();
                }

                if (((TextView) view).getText().equals("Cancer")) {
                    test.setTitle("Volume");
                    test.setMessage("KCT");
                    test.setNeutralButton("OK", null);
                    test.show();
                }

                if (((TextView) view).getText().equals("Mamá")) {
                    test.setTitle("eu");
                    test.setMessage("sou fodastico");
                    test.setNeutralButton("OK", null);
                    test.show();;;
                }
            }
        });
    }


    public void CarregarEncontrados() {
        int textlength = et.getText().length();

        lst_Encontrados.clear();

        for (int i = 0; i < lst.length; i++) {
            if (textlength <= lst[i].length()) {
                if (et.getText().toString().equalsIgnoreCase((String) lst[i].subSequence(0, textlength))) {
                    lst_Encontrados.add(lst[i]);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

If you are in API 9 or higher, you can use a simple method with Normalizer and REGEX to remove all accents. If not, you will need to create a Map with accents and change them.

Try something similar:

public void CarregarEncontrados() {
    int textlength = et.getText().length();

    lst_Encontrados.clear();

    for (int i = 0; i < lst.length; i++) {
        if (textlength <= lst[i].length()) {
            String textoAux = (String) lst[i].subSequence(0, textlength);
            String textoFormatado = et.getText().toString();

            //Removendo acentos do item da lista a comparar
            textoAux = removeAcentos(textoAux);
            //Removendo acentos do item digitado
            textoFormatado = removeAcentos(textoFormatado);

            if (textoFormatado.equalsIgnoreCase(textoAux) {
                lst_Encontrados.add(lst[i]);
            }
        }
    }
}

private void removeAcentos(String texto){
    //Verificando a versão do SDK instalado no device
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.GINGERBREAD) {
        removeAcentosPosGingerbread(texto);
    } else {
        removeAcentosPreGingerbread(texto);
    }
}

@TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.GINGERBREAD)
public String removeAcentosPosGingerbread(String texto) {
    //Fazendo a troca dos caracteres acentuados pelos correspondentes nao acentuados
    texto = Normalizer.normalize(texto, Normalizer.Form.NFD);

    //Removendo as "sujeiras" deixadas no processo
    texto = texto.replaceAll("[^\p{ASCII}]", "");

    return texto;
}

private static Map<Character, Character> acentosMap;

public static String removeAcentosPreGingerbread(String texto) {

    if (acentosMap == null || acentosMap.size() == 0) {
        acentosMap = new HashMap<>();
        acentosMap.put('À', 'A');
        acentosMap.put('Á', 'A');

    }

    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(texto);

    for (int i = 0; i < texto.length(); i++) {

    return sb.toString();
