public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {

((EditText) etIOStartDate).setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {

    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

        new DatePickerDialog(getActivity(), StartDate, myCalendar.get(Calendar.YEAR), myCalendar.get(Calendar.MONTH), myCalendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH)).show();
    return false;
    }
});
}
DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener StartDate = new DatePickerDialog.OnDateSetListener() {

        @Override
        public void onDateSet(DatePicker view, int year, int monthOfYear,
                int dayOfMonth) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub

            myCalendar.set(Calendar.YEAR, year);
            myCalendar.set(Calendar.MONTH, monthOfYear);
            myCalendar.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, dayOfMonth);

            String myFormat = "dd-MM-yyyy";
            SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(myFormat,
                    Locale.getDefault());

            ((EditText) etIOStartDate)
                    .setText(sdf.format(myCalendar.getTime()));
        }
    };

Try this. There are two events Action down and Action up.

((EditText) etIOStartDate).setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {

        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View arg0, MotionEvent arg1) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            switch(arg1.getAction())
            {
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN :
                new DatePickerDialog(getActivity(), StartDate, myCalendar.get(Calendar.YEAR), myCalendar.get(Calendar.MONTH), myCalendar.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH)).show();
                break;
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP  :
                break;

            }

            return true;
        }
    });
