UI elements don't re-position on opening keyboard

I am currently busy learning how to use Firebase and I've built a very simple UI for my experiment. Unfortunately, when I test the app and I want to fill in the EditTexts with the keyboard, the keyboard is appearing over the UI elements. I can't figure out why this is happening. I've tried out ConstraintLayout and RelativeLayout, but the problem is on both layouts.

Thanks in advance!

add this line of cdoe which will scroll the layout to above the soft keyboard.
getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_VISIBLE|WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_RESIZE);
or,
write your layout inside a scrollview

add
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustResize"
to your activity in the manifest file.

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 Scrollview doesn't scroll when keyboard appears onClick of EditText

I've been through n number of solutions for this problem and tried them all but nothing helped.
I have an EditText and onClick of it, a custom keyboard appears but the EditText doesn't comes up above the keyboard.
I have tried putting:
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden|adjustPan|adjustResize"
in my Manifest file.
I read somewhere that its a bug and it does not work in FULLSCREEN mode so I removed fullscreen mode from my manifest. Again didn't work.
Please help scrolling my EditText up :D
P.S: Please don't answer for android's default keyboard. I am using my own custom keyboard.

In scrollView use the following code:
in XML:
android:fillViewport="true"
OR
in Java:
setFillViewport(true);

You have to use a translate animation, to move the Edit-text or the entire view above the keyboard along with the Y-axis.
As you are using a custom keyboard,no other way seems to be possible.

Keyboard popup for editText should not push the UI and draw on top

After searching many related threads , i am posting this question .
My problem is that when i click on the editText box the Keyboard popup pushes the UI and the keyboard draws at the bottom rather i want the keyboard to draw over my UI and according to Android - Adjust screen when keyboard pops up?
I tried android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" in my manifest file but that didnt solve my problem . Again i get the same issue .
Is there any other solution , any related answers are welcomed . Thanks in advance .

In your AndroidManifest.xml, add the following line under the activity with the keyboard:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing"
Duplicate: Keyboard Showed messed up elements' position

I had this problem as well, and even though
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
should work, try putting the following code instead, in the onCreate() method of your activity:
getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_PAN);

i think android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" is what you are looking for

Insted of ..
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
Try this..
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"

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:
