This pull request is created by [automatic cherry pick workflow](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/releases/Flutter-Cherrypick-Process.md#automatically-creates-a-cherry-pick-request) Please fill in the form below, and a flutter domain expert will evaluate this cherry pick request. ### Issue Link: What is the link to the issue this cherry-pick is addressing? #172250 ### Changelog Description: Explain this cherry pick in one line that is accessible to most Flutter developers. See [best practices](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/blob/main/docs/releases/Hotfix-Documentation-Best-Practices.md) for examples Fixes a bug where `TextInput.hide` call incorrect clears the text in the active text field. ### Impact Description: What is the impact (ex. visual jank on Samsung phones, app crash, cannot ship an iOS app)? Does it impact development (ex. flutter doctor crashes when Android Studio is installed), or the shipping production app (the app crashes on launch) If an app calls `TextInput.hide` to hide the software keyboard, the user input in the current active text field will also be erased. It impacts the production app. The framework itself doesn't seem to call `TextInput.hide` in a way that would affect the user. ### Workaround: Is there a workaround for this issue? Yes, in theory, developers can store and restore the `TextEditingValue`, when they need to call `TextInput.hide`, to undo the clear. However I suspect the reverted PR may also [break voiceover](https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/145681#issuecomment-3110985123). ### Risk: What is the risk level of this cherry-pick? This is a revert of #160653. The reverted PR was merged in February, and the previous implementation was [introduced in 2021](https://github.com/flutter/engine/pull/23776). ### Test Coverage: Are you confident that your fix is well-tested by automated tests? - [] No This change is a revert so the added test will also get reverted. ### Validation Steps: What are the steps to validate that this fix works? To verify the fix on master (it has already landed on master), run this app: ```dart import 'package:flutter/material.dart'; import 'package:flutter/services.dart'; void main() { runApp(const MyApp()); } class MyApp extends StatelessWidget { const MyApp({super.key}); @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return MaterialApp( title: 'Flutter Demo', debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false, theme: ThemeData( colorScheme: ColorScheme.fromSeed(seedColor: Colors.deepPurple), useMaterial3: true, ), home: const MyHomePage(), ); } } class MyHomePage extends StatelessWidget { const MyHomePage({super.key}); @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return Scaffold( body: Center( child: SizedBox( child: ListView( children: [ TextButton( child: Text('hide keyboard'), onPressed: () => SystemChannels.textInput.invokeListMethod("TextInput.hide"), ), TextField( controller: TextEditingController(text: '️a' * 20), maxLines: 1, ), ], ), ), ), ); } } ``` focus the text field and then click the hide keyboard button. The text "aaaaaa..." should remain after the button is clicked.
Flutter is Google's SDK for crafting beautiful, fast user experiences for mobile, web, and desktop from a single codebase. Flutter works with existing code, is used by developers and organizations around the world, and is free and open source.
Documentation

Terms of service
The Flutter tool may occasionally download resources from Google servers. By downloading or using the Flutter SDK, you agree to the Google Terms of Service: https://policies.google.com/terms
For example, when installed from GitHub (as opposed to from a prepackaged
archive), the Flutter tool will download the Dart SDK from Google servers
immediately when first run, as it is used to execute the flutter tool itself.
This will also occur when Flutter is upgraded (e.g. by running the flutter upgrade command).
About Flutter
We think Flutter will help you create beautiful, fast apps, with a productive, extensible and open development model, whether you're targeting iOS or Android, web, Windows, macOS, Linux or embedding it as the UI toolkit for a platform of your choice.
Beautiful user experiences
We want to enable designers to deliver their full creative vision without being forced to water it down due to limitations of the underlying framework. Flutter's layered architecture gives you control over every pixel on the screen and its powerful compositing capabilities let you overlay and animate graphics, video, text, and controls without limitation. Flutter includes a full set of widgets that deliver pixel-perfect experiences whether you're building for iOS (Cupertino) or other platforms (Material), along with support for customizing or creating entirely new visual components.
Fast results
Flutter is fast. It's powered by hardware-accelerated 2D graphics libraries like Skia (which underpins Chrome and Android) and Impeller. We architected Flutter to support glitch-free, jank-free graphics at the native speed of your device.
Flutter code is powered by the world-class Dart platform, which enables compilation to 32-bit and 64-bit ARM machine code for iOS and Android, JavaScript and WebAssembly for the web, as well as Intel x64 and ARM for desktop devices.
Productive development
Flutter offers stateful hot reload, allowing you to make changes to your code and see the results instantly without restarting your app or losing its state.
Extensible and open model
Flutter works with any development tool (or none at all), and also includes editor plug-ins for both Visual Studio Code and IntelliJ / Android Studio. Flutter provides tens of thousands of packages to speed your development, regardless of your target platform. And accessing other native code is easy, with support for both FFI (on Android, on iOS, on macOS, and on Windows) as well as platform-specific APIs.
Flutter is a fully open-source project, and we welcome contributions. Information on how to get started can be found in our contributor guide.
