How to resolve view pushing problem of Android keyboard when clicking on EditText?

In my Android app, when a user clicks on EditText the keyboard appears and just pushes all the screen views upwards dislocating my UI components.
How can I solve this issue, I want the keyboard to overlay over my UI components and then the user can type what he/she wants.

Add this to the activity in your AndroidManifest.xml
android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"

Hide view when showing keyboard

I have two EditText views and one ImageView. My goal is to hide the ImageView when i am showing the keyboard (When the user have clicked on one of the EditText fields)
Then show the imageView again when the user have unfocused the EditText field or the keyboard is not visible anymore.
I have tried tons of different ways to do this. But nothing really works as intended. Do you guys have any idea how i could achieve this

Have you tried to detect if the keyboard is opened ? How do I Detect if Software Keyboard is Visible on Android Device?
Make debug and when is opened try to hide image . imageview.setvisibility (GONE)
if it does not work you can try to change layout
Make 2 layouts and switch visibility if the keyboard is open /closed

You can add a OnFocusChangeListener to the EditText,when you click the EditText,it will get focus,and then you can hide the ImageView.

<activity android:name="SearchResultsActivity"
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"/>
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.
regards! :)

You can do one thing, place UIView-> UIImageView -> UITextfield1-> UITextField2.Handle the UIImageView hiding state in textfield delegates which are Begin and End editing delegate methods

Need to scroll the page when keyboard is visible

Hi i have developed application in android using phonegap and jquerymobile.When the keyboard is visible while typing in textbox,the footer comes above the keyboard and textboxes are resized.

use a scrollview in your layout and in manifest change to android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustResize|adjustPan"

Keyboard layout hiding android action bar?

In my Android application running in a XOOM device, when I click in an Edittext the keyboard opens and hides the Actionbar. I don't want this to happen, how can I solve this? This is done by the Google Contacts app for the tablet for example.
EDIT:
I have several edittexts in which the user needs fo fill. At first, when the user clicked on one edittext on the bottom, the keyboard showed up and hide the edittext in which the user was typing, so he couldn't see what he was typing. I found it really bad, and to solve it I just added to the manifest: android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustPan"
But after that, now the screen adjust itselfs and hides the action bar.
The Google Contacts app does the same, but it magically doesn't hide the Action bar. How do they do it?

Use adjustResize instead of adjustPan. The framework will always try to keep the focused element on-screen by scrolling any parent views if necessary.
If your EditText field is not nested in some sort of scrolling container such as a ScrollView then your layout may be too tall to completely display when the keyboard resizes your activity. Try wrapping your form's layout in a ScrollView. This will also allow your app's content to scroll if it is running on a smaller screen device where it may have similar issues.

Get soft keypad to stop modifying my LinearLayout on display?

In my android application, I have an EditText. When I click in this field, the soft keyboard appears, expanding from the bottom of the screen. It seems to actually modify my layout, pushing contents upwards. When I dismiss the keypad, it retracts, and I see my layout re-expand to take up the space it previously occupied.
Is there a way to get the keyboard to simply appear "on top" of my layout, so that I don't get this somewhat unpleasant relayout animation? The EditText is pinned to the very top of the screen, so I don't have to worry about the keypad hiding it.
Thanks

By default, Android should be using "Pan and Scan", which would work more or less how you described. The keyboard is displayed over your view, and you can scroll your view in the background. If you override the windowInputMode for you Activity, or Android determines that your Activity is resizable (because of the presence of a resizable field... ListView, ScrollViews, etc), it may resize your view instead, and it sounds like that's what you're running into. To force it to Pan and Scan try adding:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"
as an attribute to the Activity element in your xml layout.
There's a third option as well. You can specify that when an EditText is selected it will be edited in full screen mode. The other controls in your view will be hidden, the user will be presented with just the keyboard, an EditText control, and optionally some other limited controls. If your EditText doesn't require a lot of context from other elements of your view, it may prevent a cleaner user interface.

Add:
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
to your activity attr in manifest.xml. Hope it will help.

This questions seems to state a resize is not desirable. I had the same issue, but adding
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing"
to the manifest file instead solved my problem.
