The imageview is on the right of the layout. It doesn't display if the content of messagedetail_row_text is too long. The imageview does display if the content of messagedetail_row_text is not too long.

I think it is happening because you have given your textView width fill_parent and it takes up as much space is its length is, then its parent width is wrap_content, so it goes upto its child occupies space(i.e TextView), so you dont have space to display the ImageView.
You can try using LinearLayout as root layout instead of relativeLayout..and manage your views by giving them weights..

I want to display an ImageView then her TextView details followed by an other ImageView and her TextView details and then a text view and under them an ImageView then her TextView. So i put 2 child LinearLayouts that has orientation set to horizontal and the parent with orientation vertical but the second child LinearLayout is not appearing at all I don't know why.

Your linearLayout1 has the property android:orientation="vertical" but then the very first child (linearLayout2) has android:layout_height="match_parent", which means the second child (linearLayout3) will have no space since first one will take over full height of the parent.
So you can change both children to have android:layout_height="wrap_content" and maybe add android:layout_weight="1" for both if you want.
The content is larger than the screen and it is hidden. You must use ScrollView.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Not sure if I'm understanding this correctly but from what you describe I would try using a relative layout as your parent and creating linear layouts inside of that that are relative to each other (one on top of the other).
i'm working on a LinearLayout but unfortunately it's not working as it should.
The goal is to have a LinearLayout with two TextViews (one placed below the other) on the left side, and an ImageView on the right side.
The ImageView should be as big as possible, the TextViews should take the remaining space.
At the moment my layout XML is like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/layout_linearlayout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_margin="1dp"
android:background="#drawable/background" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_marginLeft="2dp"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/layout1label"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginBottom="5dp"
android:singleLine="true"
android:text="1234"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/layout2label"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="1234_label2"
android:textSize="14dp" />
</LinearLayout>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/layout_image"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
android:layout_margin="2dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
The part that isn't working: If the text in the TextViews is "too long", the ImageView gets shrinked. I want it exactly the other way round.
Any solutions?
It would be more efficient to use RelativeLayout instead of LinearLayout. Then you can place your views without having to nest layouts:
<?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" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/title"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/image"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/subtitle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/image"
android:layout_below="#+id/title"
/>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
By arranging the TextViews to be relative to the ImageView instead of the other way around, the ImageView takes priority for the space, and the text works with the remainder.
this might be help to you

A little modification to Kirans Code..worked for me

I have a strange issue right now with a parent linear layout, I have its height set to fill_parent yet it seems intent on wrapping the content instead, what really is puzzling me even more is that in the graphical layout view its showing up the way Im intending for it to look but yet its still not doing what It should in the emulator?

I took a shot at simplifying your layout. I ditched all your styling, but maybe the objects are in the right places. Is this what you're looking for?

I'd like to center these phrases in my view. I can get "#+id/m_popcorn" to the center of the screen but, I cannot get"#+id/m_keyhole" and the other text views to line up beneath it. I would also like all five phrases to be centered in the screen, rather than having only "#+id/m_popcorn" centered. What am I doing wrong?

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" />

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>
