Making the screen scrollable when the keyboard comes up

Question

I asked a similar question last night but I don't think I asked the right question. I'm working on a tip calculator and when I click on one of the EditText fields to enter a number and the keyboard comes up the entire app shifts up and the background resizes. It looks like this

I don't want the background to resize and I don't want everything to shift up, I just want everything to be scrollable except for the ad when the keyboard comes up. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here's my activity_main

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

I'm using adjustPan but I'm not sure if I put it in the right place — user3682017, May 29 '14 at 04:46
so not in the androidmanifest? Do I put it within the relativelayout? — user3682017, May 29 '14 at 04:53
I'm still not sure where to place it can you look at my androidmanifest and show me what it should look like — user3682017, May 29 '14 at 05:00
I already told you add this line `android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"` to your `MaincActivity` — M D, May 29 '14 at 05:02

Try this; maybe it is use full. Adjust the manifest file Look at this MOVE UP VIEW

<activity
  android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"              
  android:name=".youractivity" android:label="@string/app_name" >

You can just add the scrollbars in the XML file using properties. You just check which way you want the scroll to lay on the screen.

I'm not sure I follow, this is my first android app so I don't get what you mean. I have a scrollview in my xml right now – user3682017 May 29 '14 at 04:45

Use this

<activity android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity"
 android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize|stateHidden"
 android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenLayout|uiMode|screenSize|smallestScreenSize"/>
