A ListView overlaps a SearchView in a CoordinatorLayout

I'm fixing an app after the AndroidX migration, and I had a very odd bug that my ListView was not being loaded on the onCreate/onStart/onResume events:
A ListView is not displaying any data on OnCreate/OnStart after AndroidX migration
By matter of chance, I decided to "simplify" my layout and removed a LinearLayout that contained the ListView. After this change, the data was loaded properly because it seems LinearLayout was somehow blocking the getView event. However, after this change, the SearchView is being overlapped by the ListView, and I don't know how to put them in the right order (first the SearchView followed by the ListView).
This is how it looks now:
This is my code:
other_ruins.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<include layout="#layout/search_container" />
<ListView
android:id="#+id/lstOtherRuins"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true"
android:layout_margin="8dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:choiceMode="singleChoice"
android:layout_below="#id/toolbar_container"
android:layout_gravity="left|start" />
</androidx.coordinatorlayout.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
<com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView
android:id="#+id/adView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:adSize="SMART_BANNER"
app:adUnitId="#string/banner_ad_unit_id" />
</LinearLayout>
search_container.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<FrameLayout
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/toolbar_container"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
app:theme="#style/ToolBarStyle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="#color/colorPrimary" />
<com.miguelcatalan.materialsearchview.MaterialSearchView
android:id="#+id/search_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</FrameLayout>
Regarding, the search_container I tested also using the AppBarLayout and crashed the app; therefore, it's not a solution.
Any idea how can I fix it? And why is this happening? If you know how to fix the previous issue and somehow call the getView event on the onCreate/onStart/onResume events is another solution.

You need to replace the FrameLayout in the search_container.xml with AppBarLayout as the AppBarLayout should wrap the Toolbar when you're using the Toolbar within the CoordinatorLayout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/toolbar_container"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
app:theme="#style/ToolBarStyle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="#color/colorPrimary" />
<com.miguelcatalan.materialsearchview.MaterialSearchView
android:id="#+id/search_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>

In my case, I needed to wrap my FrameLayout with a AppBarLayout make it work properly, when I didn´t do it, it duplicates the toolbar creating an strange shadow. This is the final change:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/toolbar_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<FrameLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
app:theme="#style/ToolBarStyle"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="#color/colorPrimary" />
<com.miguelcatalan.materialsearchview.MaterialSearchView
android:id="#+id/search_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</FrameLayout>
</com.google.android.material.appbar.AppBarLayout>
Only one of them breaks the app.

TabLayout in the fragment is shadowed by activity's title bar

I have an Activity with 4 tabs. The TabLayout is placed at the bottom (I know this is a violation of guidelines, but that's the design). One of the Fragment also has tabs which should be placed at the top, but it's shadowed by the title bar.
.
How can I add tabs to Fragment, so that it's not shadowed by the Toolbar?
Here is activity_layout.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/bg_main"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/fragments"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/tabs"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/bg_main_tabs"
app:elevation="#dimen/elevation"
app:tabIndicatorHeight="0dp"/>
</LinearLayout>
and fragment_with_tabs.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/bg_main"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/clothes_tabs"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#color/colorAccent"
app:tabIndicatorColor="#color/colorPrimaryDark"
app:tabSelectedTextColor="#color/colorPrimaryDark"
app:tabTextColor="#android:color/white" />
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/clothes_fragments"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
</LinearLayout>

Set the elevation to 0. Setting the elevation from the AppBarLayout is ideal but anyway you can do something like this
getSupportActionBar().setElevation(0);

(tablayout) Tabs come over the keyboard when editText is focused

I have setUp tabLayout with ViewPager which has 5 Fragments.
tabLayout with android:layout_gravity set to bottom . Third fragment has editText which when focused , my tabs come over the keyboard.
Tablayout without EditText
TabLayout with EditText
Main layout :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/appBarLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<include
android:id="#+id/t"

android:background="#color/colorPrimary"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:id="#+id/tabs"
app:layout_collapseMode="parallax"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
</android.support.design.widget.TabLayout></android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
Third Fragment layout :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<EditText
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="40dp"
android:hint="Enter something"
/>
</LinearLayout>

Open AndroidManifest.xml and add to your activity tag
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
If this doesn't work add
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing"
This will prevent the soft keyboard from adjusting the layout.
Hope this helps.

Put The TabLayout under the ToolBar and aove the ViewPager

ViewPager is cut off

I have a TabLayout, below a SwipeRefreshLayout containing a ViewPager (each page has a RecyclerView). I used to have the SRL in each page fragment but now changed it so I only have one which is way more convenient.
For some reason the ViewPager gets cut off and I'm unable to scroll all the way up to the top of the RecyclerView.
Does anyone have a solution for that?
Here are my layout xmls:
activity_main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/main_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/mainTabLayout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
android:elevation="6dp"
android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
app:tabGravity="fill" />
<android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout
android:id="#+id/mainSwipeContainer"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/mainViewPager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_below="#id/mainTabLayout" />
</android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
the fragment layout:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/mainRecyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" />
</RelativeLayout>

Replace your RelativeLayout by a LinearLayout in your activity_main.

Fragment from View Pager hiding behind Tab Bar

I am having an issue with a Tab bar and ViewPager in my android project. What the app does it has an activity which hosts a tab layout and then has 2 fragment which represents each of the tabs.
When the activity is opened it posts to an API to get some data and puts the data into a data adapter for a Recycler View and Card layout in each of the fragments.
The recycler view will contain 3 items but only 2 are being shown as the first is being hidden under the toolbar and/or the tab bar as shown in the screenshot below.
Below is the layout file of my activity
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
tools:context="com.BoardiesITSolution.CritiMonApp.AppsActivity">
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="#style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar">
<include layout="#layout/toolbar" />
<android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
android:id="#+id/tabs"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
app:tabMode="fixed"
app:tabGravity="fill" />
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/viewpager"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<!--app:layout_behaviour="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behaviour" />-->
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
Below is the layout of the fragment
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<view
android:id="#+id/recycler_view"
class="android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_centerInParent="true" />
</LinearLayout>
Below is the layout for card layout
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:cardview="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:layout_margin="8dp">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:elevation="5dp">
<TextView
android:id="#+id/txtApplicationName"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:maxLines="3"
android:padding="8dp"
android:textColor="#222"
android:textSize="15dp"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>
Below is the screenshot as mentioned above which shows the problem. I've pixelated some of the text but it should you what I mean, there should be 3 items but the first item is hiding underneath the tab bar.

Edit: As suggested below by #smeet and #hardik, adding the scroll behavior app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" should fix the problem while preserving the scroll behavior. Scroll behaviors only work if the view is a direct child of the coordinator layout.
Old Answer
Just Wrap your appbar layout and viewpager in a vertical LinearLayout
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
tools:context="com.BoardiesITSolution.CritiMonApp.AppsActivity">
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
//appbar layout
//viewpager
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
From the docs, CoordinatorLayout is a super-powered FrameLayout. So you can expect the typical "lay views on top of other views" FrameLayout behavior.

Adding :
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
in ViewPager resolved issue in my case.

if we will wrap app bar layout with linear layout than toolbar will not hide when you scroll so accepted answer might not help you if you want to hide toolbar when you scroll.
Smeet did it right way but not explained! here is full example with explanation.
add app namspace to CoordinatorLayout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
......
>
and just add below line in your ViewPager
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
complete xml will be as below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay">
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="#+id/toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
