Chat right alignment issue on Samsung Galazy s3 API 18 - android

I am developing an android application that also implements a chat but I am facing a weird issue on a galaxy s3 device running api 18.
s the image clearly show the text aligned on the right isn't well formatted as it should be on a single line. The layout file is as simple as possibile and no issue is shown on other phones and emulators.

Here is my xml layout file:
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/textMine"
android:layout_marginBottom="15dp"
android:visibility="visible" >

android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:paddingBottom="10dp"
android:visibility="visible"
android:paddingTop="10dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp">
<com.sonarmusic.robotoTextViews.RobotoRegularTextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#000000"
android:textSize="16sp"
android:text="non so"
android:id="#+id/textMessageMine" />
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
<ImageView
android:layout_width="15dp"
android:layout_height="15dp"
android:layout_alignBottom="#id/profilePicMine"
android:layout_alignLeft="#id/profilePicMine"
android:src="#drawable/verde_on"
android:id="#+id/isArtistMine"/>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="5dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:background="#color/chat_yellow"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true">
</RelativeLayout>
<com.sonarmusic.robotoTextViews.RobotoLightTextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="6sp"
android:textColor="#color/gray_text"
android:text="08-08-2016"
android:id="#+id/timeMine"
android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
android:layout_below="#+id/nuvolaMine"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/nuvolaMine" />
</RelativeLayout>
To me it looks like an issue due to right alignment that either android api 18 or both os and device can't render well, another reason why I have this thought is that the texts on the left side(the received ones in green background) are formatted the right way. But I have no clue on how possibily solve it.
PS Not supporting that device is NOT an option

Replace
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
by
android:layout_width="match_parent"
in your RelativeLayouts

Drawable not showing or showing blurred on Galaxy 8+ or Note8

I've got problem with drawables in my app. I have different folders for different resolutions. Normally app works perfect however on new , big phones like Samsung galaxy S8+ , Note 8 images are not being displayed or they are blurred. I dont know if it's OS issue (both of them run with Oreo) or resolution problem ? What I know is that with previous OS and phones app works perfectly.

Grey area on nexus 9

I'm facing an issue on nexus 9.
I have a "basic layout" for my view:
<RelativeLayout android:id="#+id/micContainer" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#99ffffff" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" android:layout_marginBottom="15dp" >
<LinearLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_centerInParent="true">
<TextView android:id="#+id/main_ment_0" style="#style/ment_txt" android:text="" android:layout_margin="5dp" />
<TextView android:id="#+id/main_ment_1" style="#style/ment_txt" android:text="" android:layout_margin="10dp" android:layout_marginLeft="10dp" android:visibility="gone" />
<TextView android:id="#+id/main_ment_2" style="#style/ment_txt" android:text="" android:layout_margin="10dp" android:layout_marginLeft="10dp" android:visibility="gone" />
</LinearLayout>
<ImageView android:id="#+id/main_mic" android:layout_width="70dp" android:layout_height="70dp" android:background="#drawable/mic_0" android:layout_margin="3dp" android:layout_centerVertical="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
This works well on a nexus 5:
However on a nexus 9, a grey area is visible and I can't figure why:
Do you have any idea why this grey area is visible (and if yes why it doesn't show on nexus 5) ?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Edit: the background you see behind the relativeLayout is a videoView.
I also tried on other phones (Samsung S*, Pantech Vega) and it's working well.
Here is the complete screenshot of what I have (and what I want) on my nexus 5:
your base RelativeLayout height is wrap_content, change to
android:layout_height="match_parent"

Android FancyCoverFlow - Centered Image has Off-Set on old/smaller Device

I have a problem with the FancyCoverFlow which extends Gallery:
https://github.com/davidschreiber/FancyCoverFlow
I want to center the selected Image of the FancyCoverFlow. On my 5" Android 4.2 Device it works perfectly. But on my 3.7" Android 2.2 the selected Image has an Off-Set to the left.
(I prepaired Images, but I can't post them until I does have 10 Reputations xD)
My FancyCoverFlow Item in XML looks like this:
<package.FancyCoverFlow
android:id="#+id/fancyCoverFlow"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
fcf:maxRotation="55"
fcf:scaleDownGravity="0.8"
fcf:unselectedAlpha="0.3"
fcf:unselectedSaturation="0.0"
fcf:unselectedScale="0.2" >
</package.FancyCoverFlow>
The layout of the item I'm displaying in this FancyCoverFlow looks like this:

I already tried center everything I've found :D ImageViews (FitCenter) etc...
Nothing worked. It is so stupid that it works on my newer Device but on the older one not..
Hope someone can help me and maybe had the same issue.
EDIT 1:
Does it results of the deprecated class Gallery? But if so, why does it work on my newer device? :D
Thanks!

RelativeLayout displays incorrect on real device

I have a question regarding Android RelativeLayout. My layout works perfectly on the emulator which is configured like a LG Nexus4 (screen, resolution). But if I run the app on my real Nexus4 it has serious errors and I don't know how to fix them.
Here is my layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/mainMenuLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/zeekedLogo"
android:contentDescription="#string/logo"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="24dp"
android:layout_marginRight="24dp"
android:src="#drawable/badge" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textButtonPlay"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="56dp"
android:text="#string/menu_play"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textButtonResume"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#+id/textButtonPlay"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:text="#string/menu_resume"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textLabelLevel"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_above="#+id/zeekedLogo"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="54dp"
android:text="#string/menu_level"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textButtonSound"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/zeekedLogo"
android:layout_marginLeft="24dp"
android:text="#string/menu_sound_on"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
</RelativeLayout>

Thanks in advance!
After adding a background color to my relativelayout it worked on my Nexus4. It's all I did ... and I think it's strange. But at the end I'm happy that it works.

Android Button text not centered when using API 17 for rendering

In the graphical view of layout, when I choose API 15 or lower from the button shown in the image below, the text in the encircled buttons looks fine.
When I choose API 17, the text is displaced even though the xml code is same. Changing the button padding does not help.
Is this just a problem with Eclipse or is it possible that new versions of android may see this displaced text?
What's the workaround to fix this?
XML code:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".HomeActivity" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/linearLayout1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_margin="3dp" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:src="#drawable/label" />
</LinearLayout>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/linearLayout1"
android:layout_below="#+id/linearLayout1"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:text="#string/about_title"
android:textSize="20sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_alignRight="#+id/linearLayout1"
android:layout_below="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:text="#string/temp" />
<LinearLayout

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/textView2"

android:layout_below="#+id/textView2"

<Button
android:id="#+id/button2"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="#string/tournaments" />
<Button

android:text="#string/results" />
</LinearLayout>
android:gravity="center" did not help
I restarted eclipse twice. Strangely it did not help in the first restart but it looked fine after the second one. Also, its working fine on device.
Apologies for the question, I must have waited before posting the question.
Not sure if the default style for Buttons changed in API17... possibly...
Anyway, adding android:gravity="center" should be fixing this for you.
i don't know i faced this problem check restart a eclipse.. and check..
adding android:gravity="center" should be fixing this for you
