How to resize a listview when the keyboard goes up?

Question

This is the screen without the keyboard:

But when I click on the EditText and the keyboard goes up, the header messes up and disappears because it goes up too:

This is the code:

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

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

try adding android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" in your activity tag in manifest or android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" — Aakash, Oct 02 '15 at 17:52

Try adding the following for this activity in Manifest:

android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"

The difference between android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" and android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" :

"adjustResize"

The activity's window is resized to make room for the soft keyboard on screen.

"adjustPan"

The contents of the activity's window are automatically panned so that the current focus is never blocked by the keyboard. This is so the user can see what they are typing. This is generally less desirable than resizing, because the user may need to close the soft keyboard to get at and interact with obscured parts of the window.

Also, Refer to this blog,

http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2009/04/updating-applications-for-on-screen.html

Something like,

 <activity
   android:label="@string/app_name"
   android:name=".MainActivity" android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing">
   <intent-filter>
     <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
     <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
   </intent-filter>
 </activity>

we tried it but it didn't work. It still goes up when you click the EditText. But thanks anyway! – Mateus Migliorucci Hussne Oct 02 '15 at 18:24
Oh, May be try this? android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustNothing" – dhun Oct 02 '15 at 18:37
We've already tried that. For some reason none of the tags in the Manifest don't work like we wanted. – Mateus Migliorucci Hussne Oct 02 '15 at 18:59
this is the code for the activity we are having a problem – Mateus Migliorucci Hussne Oct 02 '15 at 19:25

Add this line in your onCreate():

getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_RESIZE);

this is what it looked like before: https://i.stack.imgur.com/BQOUV.jpg
