Solution 1:

A simple solution would be to tell the TabBar to adjust for Softkeyboard Mode. To do this, go to your manifest file, and in the Tabbar Activity add this line,

android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"

This makes your Tabbar to stay at the bottom even when the softkeyboard is visible.

Solution 2:

Update: Ignore answer, thought you were using Adobe Flex for Android (dont know why!!) This works, hides the tabbar on soft/virtual keyboard being activated, and makes it visible again when its deactivated.

The listeners could be added on a global application level http://bbishop.org/blog/?p=524.
