You need to use a TabHost with the TabWidget underneath the FrameLayout inside a RelativeLayout instead of a LinearLayout, as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<RelativeLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="5dp">
<FrameLayout
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:id="#android:id/tabcontent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="5dp" />
<TabWidget
android:id="#android:id/tabs"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
</TabHost>

<TabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<LinearLayout
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<include layout="#layout/top_portion_layout"/>
<TabWidget
android:id="#android:id/tabs"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAlignment="center"
>
</TabWidget>
<FrameLayout
android:id="#android:id/tabcontent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#808080">
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</TabHost>
the portion is another layout which having two button sync all and home
which i am including in this layout
inspite of
android:textAlignment="center"
you should use
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical"
inside tab_host element

You can find a tutorial of using Custom ArrayAdapter with ListView: http://www.ezzylearning.com/tutorial.aspx?tid=1763429.
Here is another tutorial http://www.vogella.com/articles/AndroidListView/article.html.
Hope this helps.
You need to set up an adapter for your ListView and then in the getView of the adapter inflate or programmatically create a group of views that represents each individual item in the ListView.
You should google tutorials about how to set up adapters for ListViews

Tab Host Issue in android

I want to display a tab at bottom of screen , so i use
<TabHost
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#android:id/tabhost"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:padding="5dp" >
<FrameLayout
android:id="#android:id/tabcontent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="5dp" >
</FrameLayout>
<TabWidget
android:id="#android:id/tabs"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBottom="#android:id/tabcontent" />
</RelativeLayout>
</TabHost>
but also want to display a button below tab widget . At bottom of screen , we have a button and a tab widget which is above button but should be at bottom of screen .
There is any way for doing it.
Please suggest me usable link or sample code.
use linear-layout and put the tabhost and button in it
I am not sure but take one Linear or Relative Layout.
Put TabHost first and then put a button in that new Layout below TabHost.
I have not used it but I think it will work

Scrolling Tabhost at the bottom

I used the tabhost tutorial to get started with the Tabhost control.
After some play around I wanted to make the tabhost scrollable, which I figured out.
Now I want the tabhost at the bottom of the display which is just not working for me.
Switched to Relative Layout which was suggested here: iPhone-like Tabbar
My code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:scrollbars="horizontal" android:isScrollContainer="true">
<TabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#android:id/tabhost" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_alignParentBottom="true">
<RelativeLayout android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent">
<HorizontalScrollView android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:scrollbars="none"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true">
<TabWidget android:id="#android:id/tabs"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</HorizontalScrollView>
<FrameLayout android:id="#android:id/tabcontent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:padding="2dp" />
</RelativeLayout>
</TabHost>
I need a hint why it's not working / how this would work. I tried with relative layout and layout_alignParentBottom="true" now it's there a few times (in the HorizontalScrollView and the TabWidget)
Thanks to Arve leading me to "custom controls" I found a promising project:
https://github.com/honcheng/ScrollableTabHost-for-Android
I hope some others looking for this kind of tabhost can use it :)
A possible library to help you do this:
http://code.google.com/p/androidtabs/
From their project description:
Due to limitation of Android Tab component I created a custom TabWidget that I am using in couple different projects already. The widget allows us to add custom background and use custom icons, tabs can be Top/Bottom aligned.
EDIT: I have not tested this myself, but it looks promising.

Layout :How to get the bottom bar under listview

I hope can get the layout like this:
-----Search bar(EditTextview)---
-----Listview(Rows)--------
-----Bottom bar(Contain many buttons)---
Pls give many samples
Thanks very much
I paste my xml file here.Pls help me check it:
Here's a layout from one of my apps, should be enough to get you started:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ListView
android:id="#+id/list_view"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="60dp"
android:layout_weight="0"
android:gravity="bottom">
<!-- Buttons go here -->
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
Search for layout_weight to get an idea of how it works.
within your linearlayout, use Relativelayout for each edittext,listview and footer.
in footer layout set android:orientation="horizontal" it works.
