moving edit text along with soft keyboard android

Question

I am having an comment edit text in my application. The edit text is aligned at the bottom of the screen. when edit text is focused i want to move edit text alone with soft keyboard without changing other views in layout similar to comment edit box in facebook. I tried adjustpan in manifest but it moves all views up with soft keyboard. adjustresize in manifest hides some view.please provide suggestions.

I am also facing same problem. Any luck ? Can you please share with me ? — Gangadhar Nimballi, Nov 11 '14 at 11:34

Try like this inside your Android manifest file..

<activity name="YourActivity"
    android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustResize">
</activity>

or

<activity name="YourActivity"
    android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustPan">
</activity>
