android windowSoftInputMode不调整布局大小

Question

I have an ActivityGroup. Сhild Activity has a set of EditText(s). When a virtual keyboard appears, the layout does not moves up and user can't see an input field. Setting android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" in manifest.xml doesn't give required result.

    <activity android:name="com.boyko.organizer.activities.editors.AddCarActivity" android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" >
    </activity>
    <activity android:name="MainActivityGroupWithFrame"   android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize">
    <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>
    </activity>

EDITED

Found strange behavior. i have custom horizontalscrollview as a parent and two childs: activityGroup and listview. When remove scrollview and set activitygroup as parent, than all works fine.

What I can suggest you is put your layout in ScrollView and then in the manifest add android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" . Somthing like this

<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:fillViewport="true" >

    <LinearLayout 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

          <TextView 
            android:layout_width="match_parent" 
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
            android:gravity="center" 
            android:id="@+id/tv_message" 
            style="@style/Text.Large.Bold.Colored.Red" />

            // other widget
    </LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>

The only thing that did it for me was doing it in code, by putting

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

into my activity's onCreate method.

All XML attempts did not work at all, although I have heard of some hacks that seem to work at some devices by setting more than one state value in android:windowSoftInputMode which is obviously a bit of a hack since Google states here this might lead to " undefined results ".

Anyways the line above worked fine on every device I have tried so far.
