How to move the input layout go up when the keyboard appears

I'm sorry if any similar question has been resolved in other topics. I have a screen with the root is a frame layout.
The layout in back contains a lot of content
The layout in front contains an edit text to allow user enter some text. Normally, it put at the bottom of the screen.
What I expected is when the keyboard appears, the layout contains content is keep unchanged while the layout contains edit text move up to the keyboard.
Please check the images below
Is there any solution to achieve this?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Basically what you need is to edit the activity tag in your AndroidManifest.xml:
<!-- Configures the keyboard to be hidden right away and for UI to keep content as is when shown -->
<activity
android:name="com.example.myactivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustPan" />

AdjustPan with EditText at Bottom of Layout Causes SoftKeyboard to Slightly Obscure EditText View

Been looking through various threads to figure this out but I'm still stumped. When I apply "adjustPan" to an activity with an EditText at the bottom, the UI is pushed up correctly but the Edit Text is slightly obscured by the keyboard at the bottom. After closer inspection I noticed it obscures just under the actual text in the edit text so that I can see the full view when I add a new line. It's as if the android mark for what is the bottom of the edit text view is actually the bottom of the last line of text in the edit text rather than the full container. To this end I'm losing a few pixels at the bottom. Would appreciate any thoughts on the matter! Is it a bug of some description perhaps? Been driving me crazy!
Also of note, the workaround of wrapping everything in a scrollView and using adjustResize instead is unfortunately not an option in this case.
Thanks!

Try adding android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" into the activity section of your AndroidManifest.xml file.
<activity>
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
</activity>

android softkeyboard to not cover any part of EditText

I am using a ScrollView as the parent in my layout file. In my manifest, for the activity, I have android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan". But the problem is that although the focus is not covered by the keyboard, part of the EditText is covered. This makes it difficult to move around in the multiline EditText.
As use case
Say I am four lines in, and I want to go back to line 2 to edit a misspelling. When I try to move the cursor, the EditText jumps up and down, making the user experience crappy. So how do I get the entire EditView to appear above the keyboard? And yes, there is room for that.

Try adding this line to your ScrollView: android:isScrollContainer="false"
See also Forcing adjustPan in activity containing ScrollView for reference.

Android animate edittext up on click

I have put ten edit text in scroll view when i click on edit text my keyboard appear. What i want when i click on edit text one its automatically show the edit text two which is right below the edit text one. I have used
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
but none of them giving me the desired result and i think by doing this way i cannot acheive this.
Right Now I have to scroll manually or click on the next button. How to achieve this automatically as i have seen this functionality in many of the apps?

In your manifest, within the "activity" declaration for the Activity you need to resize, add
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
If it doesn't work with your ScrollView you may need to implement a simple ListView.

Keyboard issues arising on orientation change

In my app I am using various edit text and text view and list view.
Now my problem is my keyboard appears again on orientation change. Ideally when user minimize the keyboard, it should be in minimized state when device is tilted. But it reappears. How do we handle this situation.
My other problem is one of my edit text is some what at the end of screen. When keyboard appears, it hides the edit text. so user is not able to see what he is typing. What is the ideal way to handle this.
thanks.

Solution to all problem is this line android:windowSoftInputMode="stateUnchanged|adjustResize"
"stateUnchanged" will make the state of keyboard same as it was in earlier state. Either hidden or visible.
"adjustResize" will make your edit text visible.
Hope this helps.!!!
Edit
This need to be added in android manifest file.

I had this same problem. To keep the keyboard from re-appearing on rotation when you have TextViews, you must do 2 things-
Make sure the TextView doesn't have the focus. Even after hiding the keyboard, a TextView can still be focused. Try calling
textView.clearFocus()
and you should be able to see the difference in the TextView.
Make sure there is another view before it (like a parent LinearLayout, or even just a LinearLayout with 0 width and 0 height) which has these properties-
android:focusable="true"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true"

Try adding this code in your Activities properties in the manifest
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustPan"
Like
<activity
android:name=".MyActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustPan" >
This should take care of both your problems

For the Second Question :
You can set your layout to ScrollView to avoid hiding of edittext on Keyboard appears.
Put your entire layout in a ScrollView.

I found the following documentation to be helpful in understanding the various flags associated with the soft keyboard:
