Image View doesn't match parent's rounded cornered background

<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/flTodayTraining"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="#dimen/fl_today_training_bg_margin_bottom"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/fl_today_training_bg_margin_top"
android:layout_marginHorizontal="#dimen/fl_today_training_bg_margin_horizontal"
android:background="#drawable/today_training_bg"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#id/tvDaysTrained"
>
<androidx.appcompat.widget.LinearLayoutCompat
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="#dimen/iv_today_training_detail_height"
android:src="#drawable/male_upper_body"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/upper_body"
android:textSize="#dimen/tv_today_training_detail_text_size"
android:textColor="#color/black"
android:paddingVertical="#dimen/tv_today_training_detail_padding_vertical"
android:gravity="center"
/>
</androidx.appcompat.widget.LinearLayoutCompat>
</FrameLayout>
That's the cornered background of the frame layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<solid android:color="#color/white" />
<corners
android:radius="15dp"
/>
</shape>
As you can see in the image, it's rounded in the bottom, but not in the top, how do I make it rounded in all corners?
Please give me an answer that works on all version, not only api 31 +

Very simple. Just use cardView
see below XML code
<androidx.cardview.widget.CardView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="10dp"
app:cardCornerRadius="15dp">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="160dp"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
app:srcCompat="#drawable/fruit1" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#drawable/bg"
android:gravity="center"
android:paddingBottom="5dp"
android:text="Apple"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textSize="20sp"
android:textStyle="bold" />
</LinearLayout>
</androidx.cardview.widget.CardView>
and the result is below
pros-
you can easily give elevation to card view to show shadow
easily give it radius.
looks more attractive.
much more.
I hope it'll help you.

Instead of setting the background to the FrameLayout set it to the immediate ViewGroup. Also remove fitXy in the imageview
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/flTodayTraining"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="#dimen/fl_today_training_bg_margin_bottom"
android:layout_marginTop="#dimen/fl_today_training_bg_margin_top"
android:layout_marginHorizontal="#dimen/fl_today_training_bg_margin_horizontal"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="#id/tvDaysTrained"
>
<androidx.appcompat.widget.LinearLayoutCompat
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#drawable/today_training_bg"<--set it to immediate viewgroup instead
android:orientation="vertical"
>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="#dimen/iv_today_training_detail_height"
android:foreground="#drawable/some_foreground" <-- insert the new background drawable you created
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
android:src="#drawable/male_upper_body" <-- removed fitXy
/>
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/upper_body"
android:textSize="#dimen/tv_today_training_detail_text_size"
android:textColor="#color/black"
android:paddingVertical="#dimen/tv_today_training_detail_padding_vertical"
android:gravity="center"
/>
</androidx.appcompat.widget.LinearLayoutCompat>
</FrameLayout>
Create this background drawable
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shape="rectangle">
<gradient android:startColor="#color/light_blue" android:endColor="#color/dark_blue"/>
<corners android:radius="50dp"/>
</shape>
Please help me with this. Thank you

I got the solution. By adding this code in the button xml file, it worked just fine.
app:backgroundTint="#null"

Add this to your drawable folder and add it ass background of the button.
round_gradient_bg.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<solid android:color="#eeffffff" />
<corners android:bottomRightRadius="16dp"
android:bottomLeftRadius="16dp"
android:topRightRadius="16dp"
android:topLeftRadius="16dp"/>
<gradient
android:startColor="#ffff00"
android:centerColor="#00ffff"
android:endColor="#ff0000"
android:angle="45" />
</shape>
Then go to your res/values/themes.xml
change
<item name="colorPrimary">#color/purple_500</item>
to
<item name="colorPrimary">#null</item>

<solid android:color="#f00" />
</selector>
observed thing : if I use android:divider="?android:dividerVertical" then divider is working

Use this in your drawable xml like following
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<size android:width="5dip" />
<solid android:color="#f00" />
</shape>

adding custom border drawable to android RelativeLayout not showing - Xamarin Forms

I'm trying to add a background rectangle shape to a custom RelativeLayout in android and I'm following the recommendations of most questions on here by implementing a custom drawable in customborder.xml and setting it as the background of the custom.axml view. I have also tried setting the relativeLayout source as well.
You can see I've also tried it in an imageView which isn't showing up either.
I've messed around with size and color but nothing appears to be rendered.
Am I missing something that needs to be done in code? Or the xml?
customborder.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
shape="rectangle">
<corners radius="20dp"/>
<padding left="50dp" right="50dp" top="50dp" bottom="50dp"/>
<stroke width="10dp" color="#B2F7FE"/>
<solid color="white"/>
</shape>
custom.axml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="8dp"
android:background="#drawable/customborder">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageViewBackground"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="49.0dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:background="#ffededed"
android:adjustViewBounds="false"
android:alpha="1"
android:backgroundTint="#00000000"
android:foreground="#drawable/customborder" />
<refractored.controls.CircleImageView
android:id="#+id/Image"
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:src="#drawable/icon" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/Text"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="left"
android:paddingLeft="10dip"
android:layout_marginLeft="10.5dp"
android:background="#drawable/customborder">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/Text2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:textSize="24dip"
android:textColor="#FFFFFFFF"
android:paddingLeft="5dip"
android:text="Test"
android:layout_marginLeft="46.0dp"
android:layout_marginTop="12.0dp"
android:layout_gravity="left" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/Text1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#FF7F3300"
android:textSize="20dip"
android:textStyle="italic" />
</LinearLayout>

Please replace your customborder.xml file with following code,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:shape="rectangle">
<corners
android:bottomLeftRadius="20dp"
android:bottomRightRadius="20dp"
android:topLeftRadius="20dp"
android:topRightRadius="20dp" />
<padding
android:bottom="50dp"
android:left="50dp"
android:right="50dp"
android:top="50dp" />
<stroke android:width="10dp" android:color="#B2F7FE"/>
<solid android:color="#ffffff" />
</shape>
Your mistake was android prefix is missing.Also you are missing close tag in your layout.

Android layout design

I'm sorry if I asking a stupid question here.
I'm looking for android layout design. Is there has a web easy for us to design the android layout and finally generate xml code to android studio.
I wanted to have a layout design as image below, however I don't think it is possible to do using android studio layout.

Try this xml code..

You need to divide the layout in smaller elements. e.g. Choose station will be a TextView having a background image and text on it "Choose Station". Below that there will be a Relativelayout with image background and a EditText. There will be a search button with magnifying glass as background drawable. This will be aligned to right of parent so that it be on top of Edittext.
