ListView overlaps textview and background image in android

I am trying to design layout but its not rendering properly. Background logo is not visible at all. When phone goes to landscape mode then textview below listview is not visible.
Below is my xml.
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

You problem may come from using ListView inside ScrollView. You should avoid it. To overcome your problem, I think you can set a specific height for your ListView or using a vertical LinearLayout to add row views programmatically.
Using a ListView to make it not scroll is extremely expensive and goes against the whole purpose of ListView. You should NOT do this. Just use a LinearLayout instead. - from Romain Guy - the developer who write ListView in GG.

ok the problem is there with your definition, just define your LinearLayout below View (which is belowListView). check this
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"

android:fillViewport="true"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context="com.example.view.MainMenuActivity" >
<ImageView

android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:background="#80000000" />
<ListView
android:id="#android:id/list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#+id/View1_hr"
android:layout_marginTop="0dp"

Try this as your list_item and use set visibility of the second ImageView to gone when you need to show only one image.
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#9ff0"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/second_imageview"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"

Three children on RelativeLayout does not get place to be shown

I am trying to show four direct children on a Relative Layout where first one is a EdiText (in 'gone' visibility) and second one is LinearLayout with a TextView and ImageView and third is a ListView and fourth is another LinearLayout.
ListView gets over all children. I am posting below the code.

The ListView will go over other elements because you've not given it any relative positions. In a relative layout, every element will be default appear at (0,0) (ie the top left corner of the view) unless it's given a layout_below, layout_alignBottom etc parameter to determine where it's drawn.
So in this case, you 'resumably want the ListView to have android:layout_below="#id/LinearLayout1 and the bottomview similarly android:layout_below="#id/listMessages.

Here is the xml as per your requirement.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

How to fill The Android screen with views and layouts?

I have a Relative Layout Containing following Views and Nested Relative Layouts. For Some devices there is a blank space left at the bottom of the screen. I want to equitably distribute the space to the nested views and viewgroups() to fill the Screen.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#color/tdmubiobgd"
android:paddingBottom="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="#dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="#dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context=".MasterActivity$DummySectionFragment" >
<Button

Use the following :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#ffffff">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#556677">
</RelativeLayout>
<Gallery
android:id="#+id/gallery1"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#664411"/>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#997766">
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Hope this will help you....

use linear layout as your parent layout and give weights to all layouts.

Here is a XML for your question
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1">
</RelativeLayout>
<Gallery
android:id="#+id/gallery1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1">
</RelativeLayout>

use
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
orientation="vertical">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1">
</RelativeLayout>
<Gallery
android:id="#+id/gallery1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
/>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1">
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>

use linear layout and add
android:layout:weight="1"
in every tag..
if you want to use the Relative layout then,it is better that you should get the screen dimension and divide it into four, if you have four views
Refer this link for getting screen size
