Unable to set bottom margin in Android

I have a ListView in an activity. In this ListView I am calling another xml file to set text properties and add an arrow image. With only TextView, I am able to set top and bottom margin of the ListView row but when I add arrow image, the bottom margin doesn't set but top margin works properly. Please let me know, where I am doing wrong. Here's my code of xml file below :
list_text_black.xml file

Fragments will help you get the desired result. I can explain to you the logic without writing the code(...you need to put that effort). Your layout should have 3 fragments
The mapfagment can be at the top. Mapfragments
This can be followed by the fragment that contains a textview.
And the last one will contain your chat window.

Complex android layout (overlapping, left/right align, center align)

I have to create the following layout on an Android device:
The requirements are as follows:
First layout which occupies the whole screen (fill_parent);
Second (at the bottom of the screen) overlays the first one and has the following formats:
3 columns;
occupies the whole screen width;
arrows are aligned left and right sides, and text area is resized based on screen width;
I've tried numerous things, but since I'm new to the Android world, I had no success yet.
Here is what I have so far:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:minWidth="25px"
android:minHeight="25px"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:weightSum="100"
android:id="#+id/RootView">
<ImageView
android:src="#android:drawable/ic_menu_gallery"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:id="#+id/mapImageView" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/bottomArea"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/adsArea"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true">
<ImageButton
android:src="#drawable/leftArrow"
android:id="#+id/btnPrev"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_marginLeft="0dip"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Title" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="This is some summary text" />
</LinearLayout>
<ImageButton
android:src="#drawable/rightArrow"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_marginRight="0dip"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/btnNext" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
but the text doesn't seem to be center aligned, nor resized to the screen width:
Does someone has a clue?
Thanks.

Use this code for your required layout...
<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="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/linear1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_above="#+id/linear2" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</LinearLayout>
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/linear2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="70dp"

<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/rightButton1"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/leftButton1"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Title" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="This is some summary text" />
</LinearLayout>
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/rightButton1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</RelativeLayout>

Please find the code below. Also, do not use multiple viewgroup for simple layout solution.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/RootView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >

android:id="#+id/mapImageView"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:src="#android:drawable/ic_menu_gallery" />

android:id="#+id/adsArea"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

ListView with button at the bottom in Activity with fixed header and footer

I am developing an Android Application and I have an Activity that looks like this. I have a header and a footer that have fixed positions, and a ListView with clickable items in the middle. Below the ListView, I have a button.
It is working when I have a few items, but as I add more items, the button begins to disappear, like this.
When I have more items in that list that can be shown in the page, I have a scroll in the list. If I scroll down like this I can see all the items in the list, but the button is hidden.
I have had a lot of problems before trying to add a ListView inside a ScrollView, so I know it doesn't work. As I am new in Android development, perhaps my XML layout files are a bit confusing, but I have a parent LinearLayout with two RelativeLayouts inside, one for the header and one for the middle and footer. The XML is something like this:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

Does anyone have any tips on how can I keep the footer fixed, scroll down until the end of the list and then show the button? I want that it looks like the button is the last item at the List.
EDIT: Entire XML posted

The ListView and the Button should be in a RelativeLayout and in the Button you should set android:layout_below="#id/listview"
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/listview"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:cacheColorHint="#000000"
android:textColor="#000000" />
<Button
android:layout_below="#id/listview"
android:id="#+id/buttonCreateGroup"
android:layout_width="200dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
android:layout_marginTop="15dp"
android:background="#layout/button_confirm"
android:text="#string/createOneGroup"
android:textColor="#FFFFFF"
android:textSize="22dp" />
</RelativeLayout>

Try it in the following manner:
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<RelativeLayout //Header
android:layout_alignParentTop="true">
</RelativeLayout>
<ListView
android:layout_below="#+id/header" />
<RelativeLayout //Button(footer)
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/listView" >
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>

The only way I could achieve the exact requirements I explained above was doing the following:
-In the XML file with the layout of the list items, I added a button with android:visibility="gone".
-In my custom ListView adapter, I always add an empty object in the last position. I simply add an object with a flag that shows it is the last in the list.
-In the method getView() that I override in the custom Adapter, I check if the object in the current position has the flag indicating that it is the last in the list. If so, I set the button visibility to VISIBLE, otherwise I fill the other components.
If anyone is facing the same problem and needs some sample code from my solution just ask here.

Try this:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

How to show layout on the bottom of ListView

<?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="match_parent"

</RelativeLayout>
some layouts below the ListView in the xml will disappear on the screen
and I tried to put the ListView and other layouts below the ListView into a scrollView
but the ListView will shrink, it looks too small, so i remove the ScrollView,
how should i do to let them appear on the screen without ScrollView?

You need to set Weight to your layouts like this way..
like you can set ListView Weight is= 0.80 and Bottom View is = 0.20 make sure parent Linear layout Weight sum is = 1.
You can see this is my xml file having List View (80% screen) and bottom Bar layout for Google Ads (almost 20% screen).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:weightSum="1">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/layVrt"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="0.72"
android:weightSum="1">
<ListView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/listViewGame"
android:textFilterEnabled="true"
android:layout_height="350dp"
android:layout_weight="0.73"></ListView>
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_weight="0.20"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:background="#drawable/rounded_corners_white"
android:paddingLeft="3dp"
android:paddingRight="3dp"
android:layout_height="50dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="3dp"
android:id="#+id/layoutAdMobList">
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
so this will be the output..

Or you can try something like this:
<?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" >
<ListView
android:id="#+id/list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_above="#+id/bottom_bar" >
</ListView>
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/bottom_bar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="#drawable/bottom_bar"
android:gravity="center_vertical"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<ToggleButton
android:id="#+id/slider_btn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#drawable/bottom_toggle_button" />
<ToggleButton
android:id="#+id/list_btn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#drawable/bottom_left_button" />
<ToggleButton
android:id="#+id/map_btn"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:background="#drawable/bottom_right_button" />
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
Place everything inside a RelativeLayout and use android:layout_above="#+id/bottom_bar" on the ListView
