here is the java code

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
    ListView listView;
    ImageButton micBtn, keyBtn;
    EditText textcontent;
    Json jsons;
    Files files;
    ArrayList<String> names;
    ArrayList<Integer> id;
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate( savedInstanceState );
        setContentView( R.layout.activity_main );

        jsons = new Json( this );
        files = new Files( this );

        listView = (ListView) findViewById( R.id.textListView );
        micBtn = (ImageButton) findViewById( R.id.micBtn );
        keyBtn = (ImageButton) findViewById( R.id.keyBtn );
        textcontent = (EditText) findViewById( R.id.textContent );

        //final String[] names = {"hello","good","hello","good","hello","good","hello","good","hello","good","hello","good","hello","good"};
        //int[] id = {0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,1,0,0,1,1};
        names = new ArrayList<>(  );
        id = new ArrayList<>(  );

        final TextListView baseAdapter = new TextListView(MainActivity.this,names,id);
        listView.setAdapter( baseAdapter );
        listView.setSelection( baseAdapter.getCount() - 1 );

        textcontent.setOnFocusChangeListener( new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
            @Override
            public void onFocusChange(View view, boolean b) {

            }
        } );

        micBtn.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {

            }
        } );

        keyBtn.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View view) {
                String content = String.valueOf( textcontent.getText() );
                if(content != ""){
                    names.add( content );
                    id.add( 0 );
                    String answer = jsons.sendText( "are you ok" );
                    answering( answer );
                    listView.setSelection( baseAdapter.getCount() - 1 );
                    textcontent.setText( "" );
                }else{
                    Toast.makeText( MainActivity.this,"what are your command?",Toast.LENGTH_LONG ).show();
                }

            }
        } );
    }

    public void answering(String answer){
        if(answer != "") {
            names.add( answer );
            id.add( 1 );
        }else{

        }
    }
}

Answer 1

Make changes in the activity of your Manifest file like

windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"

OR

Make changes in your onCreate()method in the activity class like

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

Answer 2

Make the code change for the activity declaration in the AndroidManifest.xml

  <activity
      android:name=".MainActivity "
      android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" />
