I want to move the layout up when the soft keyboard is open. I tried with all the options that I found in Google like
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
but my layout does not move up.
Can anyone please help?
From the doc
"adjustResize"
The activity's main window is always resized to make room for the soft
keyboard on screen.
"adjustPan"
The activity's main window is not resized to make room for the soft
keyboard. Rather, the contents of the window are automatically panned
so that the current focus is never obscured by the keyboard and users
can always see what they are typing. This is generally less desirable
than resizing, because the user may need to close the soft keyboard to
get at and interact with obscured parts of the window.
Try putting this in your manifest file
<application ... >
<activity
android:name=".myActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" ... >
...
</activity>
...
</application>

When the on-screen keyboard is displayed some UI elements in my layout shrink and/or disappear.
I do not want the underlying UI to change at all when the keyboard displays or hides.
Try try to prevent this I have added keyboardHidden to the configuration changes declaration in my Activity manifest believing that this would tell the system that I will handle any resizing required, but it has made no difference.
Is there a simple way to prevent any resizing when the keyboard displays and is hidden?
It sounds like you want the adjustPan option for the windowSoftInputMode attribute in the manifest:

The details of the different options can be found here
You add it to the activity definition in the manifest like this:
<activity
android:name=".ui.MyActivity"
android:label="#string/my_activity_title"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"/>
As above it's worth noting that using this will sometimes push part of your Activity off screen if there is a 'focused' element which would otherwise be hidden by the keyboard.
In the layout file of one of my activities I've got 2 inputs at the top and at the bottom and a next button.
The problem is, when keyboard shows, it covers the button. How can I bring the views above keyboard?

You can use android:windowSoftInputMode attribute to specify what should happen whether the layout is resized or whether it scrolls.
In your manifest file
<activity name=".YourActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustResize">
...
</activity>

Use "adjustResize"
It makes main window always resized to make room for the soft keyboard on screen.
<application

<activity
.............................
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden|adjustResize" />
</application>
I trying to fix layout resize in my Activity when keyboard appear on the screen. I've tried to put in manifest on the activity: windowsSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden" but with not results, my layout is still resizing when I open the keyboard with someone on messenger which is unussual.
If you are doing what I think you are doing, stateAlwaysHidden is not the way to go about it.
<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" >
From the documentation
The activity's main window is not resized to make room for the soft keyboard. Rather, the contents of the window are automatically panned so that the current focus is never obscured by the keyboard and users can always see what they are typing.
This is, I think what you want. The pan not to change
Here's a link to the documentation regarding it http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element.html#wsoft
How to make my layout stay on position, when keyboard appears?
Whenever android soft keyboard appears layout view push to up
According to this Android developer guide,
"adjustPan"
The activity's main window is not resized to make room for the soft keyboard. Rather, the contents of the window are automatically panned so that the current focus is never obscured by the keyboard and users can always see what they are typing. This is generally less desirable than resizing, because the user may need to close the soft keyboard to get at and interact with obscured parts of the window.
So add this in your AndroidManifest.xml
<activity android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" > </activity>
You can try setting a Dummy layout below your layout with the width and height of your preference and Set the visibility of the Dummy layout to invisible.
I am facing issues when soft keyboard opens up on my 2 pane layout as seen above.
For the left side list view fragment i want to adjustPan the soft input. If i don't do this then when the soft keyboard closes it leaves back blank space on the list fragment.
For the right side detail pane i want to adjestResize the soft input so that user can enter text into both edit texts and click button with soft keyboard still open.
I tried setting the properties differently for my fragments in their respective onCreateView() using setSoftInputMode() but that did not help me much because both fragments got adjustResize finally.
Any solutions/ideas which will help me with this?
Thanks in advance.
to ensure that the system resizes your layout to the available
space—which ensures that all of your layout content is accessible
(even though it probably requires scrolling)—use "adjustResize":
<application ... >
<activity
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" ... >
...
</activity>
