Android - EditText's hint changes View/Layout's size

I have a LinearLayout consisting of 3 LinearLayout's consisting of 2 TextView's and an EditText. When I add a hint to the third EditText I end up with a lot of whitespace between the 2nd and 3rd TextViews and also after the 3rd.
Code and images are below. What could be causing this?
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:visibility="gone"
android:id="#+id/self"

<EditText
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/self_phone_edit"
android:phoneNumber="true"
android:hint="#string/enter_phone"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:text="#string/edit"
android:id="#+id/edit_self_button"
android:onClick="toggleSelfEdit"
/>
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="right"
android:text="#string/update"
android:id="#+id/update_self_button"
android:visibility="gone"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Without hint:
With hint:

I think you forgot writing the android:visibility="gone" at the third edittext. I tried your xml and when I put visibility="gone" inside the edittext your xml looks like the first screenshot :)

Please suggest me what to do to solve it.
Thanks.

change the match_parent to wrap_content
i think you can wrap it so by adding
android:phoneNumber="true"
in your XML layout. try this .

Try it:
<EditText
android:id="#+id/txtFamousRegion"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:inputType="textMultiLine|number"
android:singleLine="false"
android:digits= "0123456789" />

Software Keyboard resizes layout even with windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"

I have the layout below, which when the software keyboard opens the bottom buttons move up and all get squished together.

I have set android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" in the manifest but this does not seem to have changed anything.
Testing on my Note 3 with android 4.3
Is there another way I need to force the view to not get pushed together and just have the software keyboard lay on top of the view

Please put android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden|adjustPan" inside activity tag of manifest file

android:gravity="bottom"
add this line to both your vertical as well as horizontal linear layout
I guess this was the answer you were looking for

Replace with following code
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/btnLayout"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_above="#+id/progressbar_Horizontal"
>
<Button
android:id="#+id/play"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
/>
<Button
android:id="#+id/pause"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/back"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/fwd"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>
<ProgressBar
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal"
android:id="#+id/progressbar_Horizontal"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
/>
</RelativeLayout>

I want to place the relative layout (last relative layout which having 3 buttons it, after scrollview ) at the bottom my screen. but its not happening
what to do??
Edited: The happening is i statically placed the relative layout by specifying padding, when running in portrait mode i made it fix at bottom but when i changed to landscape its not at bottom. How to place relativelayout in bottom in either cases??
Thanks

Add following line to your Relative layout
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
This must be work.
Happy coding.

Here the solution I tested and which works :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="100dp"
android:layout_weight="1.0" android:fadingEdge="none">
...
</ScrollView>
<RelativeLayout android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="60dip"
android:background="#drawable/tabbarbottom">
<Button android:id="#+id/jobs" android:text="About Us"
android:layout_width="100dp" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
...></Button>
<Button android:id="#+id/aboutus" android:text="Value"
android:layout_width="100dp" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
...></Button>
<Button android:id="#+id/benefits" android:text="History"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" ...></Button>
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
The first LinearLayout should have layout_height="fill_parent".
This way it takes up the whole screen.
The ScrollView should have a
small fixed height, and an extra android:layout_weight="1.0" : it
will take up whatever space is remaining.
The RelativeLayout should
have a fixed height (it will always take up the same space at the
bottom of the screen), and the Buttons inside of it should have
layout_height="fill_parent" (to have the same height as the
RelativeLayout).

Make parent layout as relative layout. layout which contain button put that on bottom using
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
This will work

In the ScrollView
android:fillViewport="false"
