Page scroll when soft keyboard popped up


I fixed the problem by defining the following attribute in <activity> of AndroidManifest.xml

android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"


Ok, I have searched several hours now to find the problem, and I found it.

None of the changes like fillViewport="true" or android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" helped me.

I use Android 4.4 and this is the big mistake:

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"

Somehow, the Fullscreen themes prevent the ScrollViews from scrolling when the SoftKeyboard is visible.

At the moment, I ended up using this instead:

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar

I don't know how to get rid of the top system bar with time and battery display, but at least I got the problem.

Hope this helps others who have the same problem.

EDIT: I got a little workaround for my case, so I posted it here:

I am not sure if this will work for you, but it will definitely help you in understanding, and clear some things up.

EDIT2: Here is another good topic that will help you to go in the right direction or even solve your problem.


For me the only thing that works is put in the activity in the manifest this atribute:

android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustPan"

To not show the keyboard when opening the activity and don't overlap the bottom of the view.
