I have two EditText, how can I set the cursor to the right EditText

 EditText emailE = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editTextEmailLogin);
 EditText passwordE = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.editTextPasswordLogin);
 String email = emailE.getText().toString().trim();
 String password = passwordE.getText().toString().trim();

if the user pressing Singin and the Electronic EditText is empty, position the cursor in the Electronic EditText. and the same for the EditText password

if (TextUtils.isEmpty(email)){
        Toast.makeText(this, getResources()"email is empty", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        //set cursor in Email editText
        emailE.setSelection(0);
        return;
    }
    if(TextUtils.isEmpty(password)){
        Toast.makeText(this,"password is empty", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        //set cursor in Password editText
       passwordE.setSelection(0);
        return;

        Toast.makeText(this, getResources()"email is empty", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        //set cursor in Email editText
        emailE.requestFocus();

etext1.setSelection(Your position)

or

 EditText etext1 = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.etext1 );
    etext1.setSelection(etext1.getText().length());

or

etext1 .requestFocus(Your_Text.length());

Try this also; check it
