Can I add an Image Header in Navigation Drawer Layout?
Yes you can add with no problems.
If you use android studio navigation drawer or some thing else every thing are same. Some additional methods will be present and you need to check the methods required by you and delete other methods. You may also need to add few methods.
As per the latest android, best way of designing navigation drawer is by using recycler view and by using material design.
There are lot of materials in google for doing this, one of the finest tutorials I prefer is in the link given below you can have a look:

In the menudrawer activity setcontentview(layout).Inside this layout
try to add an imageview.My sample xml is as folllows

android:layout_width="match_parent"

space available using match_parent in both dimensions. -->
<FrameLayout
android:id="#+id/content_frame"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" />
<!-- android:layout_gravity="start" tells DrawerLayout to treat
this as a sliding drawer on the left side for left-to-right
languages and on the right side for right-to-left languages.
The drawer is given a fixed width in dp and extends the full height of
the container. A solid background is used for contrast
with the content view. -->

I have created a ListView to which I've added CardView.
As you can see in the image, when I start scrolling, the last Card in the ListView is not completely displayed. It scrolls up but it does not come above Android's navigation bar at the bottom. I've been testing on a HTC One M8.
Here is the ListView:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/wanna_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:divider="#null"/>
</LinearLayout>
And here is the CardView that I inflate and set into the adapter of the listview:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<android.support.v7.widget.CardView

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="200dp"
android:id="#+id/cv"
android:foreground="?android:attr/selectableItemBackground"
android:clickable="true"
card_view:cardCornerRadius="6dp"
card_view:cardUseCompatPadding="true"
card_view:cardElevation="2dp">
<!-- compat padding is required if using AppCompat -->

android:id="#+id/secondLine"
android:layout_below="#+id/firstLine"
android:text="10 Oct at 7pm"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/firstLine" />
<Button
android:layout_width="180dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="YES"
android:id="#+id/button3"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/thumbnail" />
<Button
android:layout_width="60dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="NO"
android:id="#+id/button4"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/button3"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/button3"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="false" />
</RelativeLayout>
</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>
</LinearLayout>
I have also tried my card view layout without wrapping it in a LinearLayout and it still does not work.
Is there a setting in the layout xml that will take care of this?
Thanks in advance.
android:layout_marginBotton=" "
add margin bottom should try once.
So adding a margin to the bottom of listView worked, as below:
<ListView
android:id="#+id/wanna_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:divider="#null"
android:layout_marginBottom="80dp" />
Am surprised this is the only way to get it to work though. I would have assumed the Android framework took care of these things.
Is the ListView in a Fragment ? As far as I know, this is possible when you have used a Toolbar such as :
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
...
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll"
...
>
</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
then change the attribute to:
app:layout_scrollFlags="enterAlwaysCollapsed"
Adding margin at the bottom of ListView is sort of a hack. I have given a probable cause for this. If this is the case, then you won't need to add the margin in ListView. There is always a reason behind the UI behavior. I hope this helps.
I followed up the android docs to build a navigation drawer on my app main activity. But the contents are in a string array in my main activity java code. The listview elements are not lined up.
How do I make them lined up to the left so they all are aligned equal distance from the left side of the screen? I also want this behavior in portrait and layout modes.
This is my xml file.

From the link you shared, there is a layout R.layout.drawer_list_item. there is an XML layout called drawer_list_item.xml. this is the file responsible for all the item in the listView.
check for gravity in the XML and remove it or set the property to alignParentLeft
You should NOT be creating this yourself, and instead should be using the AppCompat provided NavigationLayout for this.
This is designed to set this all up for you using just menu.xml files, and using this control will ensure your drawer matches the guidelines exactly.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/design/widget/NavigationView.html
I think your Text of ListView is align to the center,
android:layout_gravity="center
change that to right or left according to your requirement
which may help
I suspect that you are using android:gravity="center" instead of android:gravity="center_vertical" in the TextView for the List.
I am trying to set my ImageButtons in a horizontal scroll view that appears under the frame layout. Below is what I have done so far. However, this scrolls everything, including my frame layout. How do I avoid that? Or in another way to look at it, I'm trying to take my navigation drawer and lay it down instead of popping out from the side? Maybe there's a way to replicate that? Overall goal is to get something that looks similar to the old blackberry scroll menu.

I don't know if I understood well, but I use this library to do horizontal scroll, you can implement this horizontal listView and inside it put your ImageButtons just like you would do with a vertical ListView.
https://github.com/sephiroth74/HorizontalVariableListView
Hope it helps you.
In my Nav Drawer, I have a ListView and below that some ImageButtons. To show the Listview on top and rest of the views at the bottom of the screen, I used relative layout as below.
In this scenario, when I rotate my phone to horizontal orientation (e.g. not enough length to show ListView and others), the ImageButtons overlap the ListView (like floating DIVs in HTML).
I tried using LinearLayout with layout_gravity = "bottom" for the container of ImageButtons, but then the buttons were placed adjacent to the Listview, rather than at the bottom of the scren.
Please guide me how to implement this correctly.

This is what it should be looked like & how it is looked like in vertical mode
This is how it is looked like in horizontal mode
The layout components are overlapped because you have used Relative layout as parent.Try to use Linear layout with vertical orientation, instead of Relative layout.
Then Try to do this
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/drawer"
android:layout_width="240dp"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_gravity="start"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ListView

I know my answer is bit late. I will suggest to make seperate xml layout and add this layout to listview with 'addFooterView' method. It will bound that xml always in last of that list view. I hope it will help you.
I am using the sliding menu in my application
After clicking on the setting icon I go the following result
The content in the first layout is wrapping, instead I want to hide that part of view

Any kind of help will be greatly appreciated
You should consider using jfeinstein10's SlidingMenu. It is quite good and is widely used by many popular Android apps such as Foursquare Rdio, Falcon Pro, ...etc
