Answer 1

Remove android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" from your LinearLayout. I tried your code, it worked.

Hope it helps.

EDIT :

Explaination:

the attribute android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" simply blocks your LinearLayout to give focus to the decendant view .

Decendants of LinearLayout = all the child views of LinearLayout

Answer 2

You can try this..

    <activity
         android:name="Activity"
         android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"/>

Answer 3

Use this code in the point where you want to display the keyboard (may be in oCreate?)

EditText mEditText= (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editTextName-);

    ((InputMethodManager)getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE))
        .showSoftInput(mEditText, InputMethodManager.SHOW_FORCED);
