Nested linear layouts Vs Single relative layout

I am creating a layout which has two views in same line horizontally on top and below that all views are vertically arranged.I have read that its advisable to use linear layout wherever possible.However in this case if I have to use linear layout then I need to create another Linear Layout inside parent Linear Layout to hold top two views with orientation horizontal and my parent layout will have orientation vertical which will contain all views.
Instead if i use relativelayout as parent layout then all views can be arrange in single parent layout without the need to create any child layout.
Which is a better approach-nested linear layouts or single relative layout?

How to remove Linear Layout via code in ANDROID

I have a Linear Layout with many linear layouts inside. At runtime , I want to remove this layout(along with its child linear layouts) from the view subject to a condition. On removal, I want other layouts to be adjusted accordingly.
I tried this, but the layout remains.
if(getIntent().getStringExtra("ListingType").equals("Brief")){
extraLayout.setVisibility(View.GONE);
extraLayout.removeAllViews();
}
This Activity has 2 main Linear Layouts, 1 is DetailsLayout and 2 is ExtraLayout, both these layouts are relative to each other in a ScrollView. The main(root) layout of the Activity is Relative Layout

Matrix of linear layout and manipulation in code

Let say that I have an layout in res/values named layout1.xml.
In this layout I have only one linear layout (the black one on the picture)
The thing I want to do is to add an array of linear layouts just like on the picture.
The red ones are linearlayout with horizontal orientation that contains 5 other linear layouts.
I want to do everything in code and I want to set an onclick listener to each of the layouts so when one is clicked I want to hide it. Everything needs to be putted in a function that will return a Layout and the this method should take prams for the rows and cols
public LinearLayout getLayout(int rows,int cols){
return the_layout;
}
You make a LinearLayout with the constructor new LinearLayout(context)
You add layouts with parentLayout.addView(childLayout).
You should be able to do the rest.

How do I overlay the window with an image on top of all the views?

I am trying to place an overlay on top of my Activity. In other words, I would like to put a gradient on top of the whole screen with all views behind it.
I currently have a LinearLayout with my buttons and everything in it. Do I extend the LinearLayout and add something on the onDraw method, or is there any way I can add another layout that overlays everything?
You can do two things:
replace the LinearLayout with a RelativeLayout and so you can easily place anything you want on top of each other
wrap your LinearLayout in a FrameLayout. The FrameLayout draws everything in order of definition/adding so your gradient should be the last added view/layout.
Something like that:
<FrameLayout>
<LinearLayout>
<Your stuff>
</LinearLayout>
<GradientView/>
</FrameLayout>
