The element <input type="date" /> cannot be activated.

When I click on the fields on the emulator it doesn't show me the entrance date but the android keyboard.

Take a look at this: http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/inputs_mobile.html

It tells you which html5 input types and attributes work on each browser. It looks like the datepicker isn't working for most Androids, and thus it would show as a simple text input.
