So i had a listener that i thought i got rid of but it was still in
the code:
emailEntry.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener() {
public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
emailEntry.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(0, 0, 0, 0);
return false;
}
});
Now the setError behavior works fine. Issue Resolved.
