You can use a lib Accordion-View screenshot is :

I have implemented some code as the answer suggested by #Super User. So from that i think you will sure get your solution.

Now just remember one thing whenever you want to add layout items then add item in Linear Layout and make different layout for different sections and after that include that layout in your Linear layout. I have tried for one section named radio.xml file which is included in Linear Layout above.
radio.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RadioGroup
android:id="#+id/radioGroup1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="15dp"

android:id="#+id/radio0"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="30dp"
android:checked="true"
android:text="Domestic"
android:textColor="#ff0000" />
<RadioButton
android:id="#+id/radio1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="30dp"
android:text="InterNational"
android:textColor="#ff0000" />
</RadioGroup>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<TextView

android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:text="Pick Up Location"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" />
<EditText
android:id="#+id/editText1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="30dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="1"

<EditText
android:id="#+id/editText2"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="30dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:ems="10" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="15dp"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView3"

You can start with ExpandableListView and customize it to your need. I think this would be a good way to start. Please follow a link below to customize ExpandableListView :
http://androidexample.com/Custom_Expandable_ListView_Tutorial_-_Android_Example/index.php?view=article_discription&aid=107&aaid=129
You can google for more links on customizing expandablelistview. Hope it helps.

You can use scaleAnimation where you can add in each section a layout panel and inside the layout textview or anything as your requirement. See this. Hope it might help you.

But I cannot get the last button to go at the bottom. Could someone please help me? I have tried a couple answers on here but none seemed to work. Maybe it was because of how I set the height of the other layouts but I'm not too sure on that.
Thank you in advance,
Tyler
Look this my implementations in some projects i think it will help you to determine your layout ,
may help you and feel free to feed me back in any issue
<?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" >
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/header"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:background="#FC9"
android:gravity="center" >

android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_margin="5dp"
android:text="Fixed Header"
android:textColor="#000"
android:textSize="20sp" />
</RelativeLayout>
<!-- Footer aligned to bottom -->
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/footer"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="#FC0"
android:gravity="center" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"

</ScrollView>
</RelativeLayout>
I think the best way I can think of is to use RelativeLayout. It has the member android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" which you can use in your Button within the RelativeLayout. This will always keep it at bottommost.

How to make the height of the two ListView controls to fit UI?

The layout posted below creates the the UI. I currently get a result as shown in a.png and c.png (there is a lot of empty space), but I hope to achieve something similar to b.png and d.png. How can I do this?
I want the height of lvReceiver and lvOnlyOrExcept to increase and decrease automatically by the rows of data.
What I get now looks like this:
a.png
c.png

The xml which you are inflating for the list views must be having excess padding/margin. Please post the xml which you are using to inflate for both the list views. The issue lies there

Not happy with my Android UI layout

I am having a heck of time trying to get my UI to look the way I want. Here's what I've got ...
I would like the TextView, the XX:XX:XX, text font to be larger and centered between the EditText and Button. Also how come the user gets the phone keyboard instead of a qwerty keyboard to use to enter text?
Here's my layout XML:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<EditText
android:id="#+id/new_bookmark_name"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="0.5"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="text" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/new_bookmark_clock"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="0.3"
android:text="#string/xx_xx_xx" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_add_new_bookmark"
style="?android:attr/buttonStyleSmall"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="0.2"
android:text="#string/add"/>
</LinearLayout>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/bookmark_list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
Use the following code to achieve what you want:......
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<EditText
android:id="#+id/new_bookmark_name"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="text" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/new_bookmark_clock"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:textSize="18dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="#string/xx_xx_xx" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_add_new_bookmark"
style="?android:attr/buttonStyleSmall"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="#string/add"/>
</LinearLayout>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/bookmark_list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
please refer this xml all the changes is done tested is also done.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"

<TextView
android:id="#+id/new_bookmark_clock"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:gravity="center_horizontal|center_vertical"
android:textSize="18dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:text="hello" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_add_new_bookmark"
style="?android:attr/buttonStyleSmall"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:text="add"/>
</LinearLayout>
<ListView
android:id="#+id/bookmark_list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"/>
</LinearLayout>
You can use relative layout to do that. You can change the font size with android:textSize
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<EditText
android:id="#+id/new_bookmark_name"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="text" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/new_bookmark_clock"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/new_bookmark_name"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/btn_add_new_bookmark"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="20sp"
android:text="#string/xx_xx_xx" />
<Button
android:id="#id/btn_add_new_bookmark"
style="?android:attr/buttonStyleSmall"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:text="#string/add"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Replace android:layout_gravity="center" by
android:gravity="center" in your TextView.
and regarding the keyboard layout, it looks like you are trying in the emulator. The emulator shows up 12pad keyboard in portrait mode. You can try in the device.
Please follow below, i have made a sample UI exactly what you have asked for using Relative Layout and by using minimum number of lines. Please have a look and check if can solve the purpose. I have also attached snapshot for the same.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<RelativeLayout
android:padding="4dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
>
<EditText
android:id="#+id/ed_name"
android:layout_width="100dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="number" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tv_name"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/ed_name"
android:text="XX:XX:XX"
android:textSize="18dp" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/btn_name"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:text=" add " />
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
About the keypad :Check it on actual device , the device will open its own default keypad.

Layout does not match preview

I have designed an action sheet that appears when a user press a button. It is a separate xml file that I am including in another layout file. In the layout preview, it looks exactly as I want it. However, when it runs on my phone, the layout is messed up.
Here is how it should look:
And here is how it does look:
Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening?
Here is the layout code for the action sheet. The section that isn't displaying right is in the last linear layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"

android:textColor="#806014"
android:textSize="20sp" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
And here is how it is included:
<FrameLayout
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/edit_text_frame">
<include layout="#layout/edit_text"/>
</FrameLayout>
Edit: In addition to a fix for this specific problem does anyone know why the preview doesnt match the way it actually shows up on the phone?
Thanks for the help!

You could place the font, size, color TextViews into a Table Layout.

Android LinearLayout Alignment

Being new to android I am still learning the intricacies of layouts. I am trying to create a simple bar on top of a map. For the most part this works fine.
My issue is that I want everything to be right aligned except for the Button which I want left aligned. I have tried quite a few combinations and am unable to get desired layout.
This is beginning to make me believe my structure as a whole is not correct. This seems like there should be an easy fix. What am I missing??
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/transparent_panel_hud"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:gravity="right">
<Button
android:text="View"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:drawableRight="#drawable/arrow_down"
android:textSize="10sp"
android:drawablePadding="3dp"/>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingRight="15dp" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/latitude"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:gravity="right"
android:text="#string/default_latitude"
android:textSize="18sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/longitude"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="right"
android:text="#string/default_longitude"
android:textSize="18sp" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingRight="10dp" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:text="#string/speed"
android:textSize="18sp" />
<TextView

Do the following changes to your XML layout, you will get the output as you mentioned. Try this.
Remove the line android:gravity="right" in LinearLayout with id=transparent_panel_hud
Keep your Button in a LinearLayout as below.
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:gravity="left" >
<Button ... as you like />
</LinearLayout>
Keep your remaing 3 vertical LinearLayouts in a LinearLayout as below.
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:gravity="right" >
<LinearLayout vertical 1 ... as you like />
<LinearLayout vertical 2 ... as you like />
<LinearLayout vertical 3 ... as you like />
</LinearLayout>
I tested above changes to your code, its working. You too check it and let me know the result.
Try this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/transparent_panel_hud"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal">
<Button
android:text="View"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textSize="10sp"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:drawablePadding="3dp"/>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:id="#+id/rightlayout"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:paddingRight="10dp" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:text="heading"
android:textSize="18sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/heading"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:text="default_heading"
android:textSize="18sp" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#id/rightlayout"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingRight="10dp" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:text="speed"
android:textSize="18sp" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/speed"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
