move up text view only when virtual keyboard open on android

Try this; maybe it is useful. Adjust the manifest file

<activity
      android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"              
      android:name=".youractivity" android:label="@string/app_name" >

@Ganesh you change manifest like above your Activity code also working

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
     android:layout_width="wrap_content"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"   >

  <RelativeLayout
     android:layout_width="fill_parent"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
     android:id="@+id/toplayout">
     <ImageView
         android:layout_width="fill_parent"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         android:src="@drawable/ic_launcher" />   
     <EditText
         android:layout_width="fill_parent"
         android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"   
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         android:hint="Enter value" />

     </RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>

Move layouts up when soft keyboard is shown?

Yes, check out this article on the Android developers' site which describes how the framework handles the soft keyboard appearing.

The android:windowSoftInputMode attribute can be used to specify what happens on a per-activity basis: whether the layout is resized or whether it scrolls etc.

How to adjust layout when soft keyboard appears

Just add

android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"

in your AndroidManifest.xml where you declare this particular activity and this will adjust the layout resize option.

some source code below for layout design

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
        android:text="FaceBook"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/editText1"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_marginTop="30dp"
        android:ems="10"
        android:hint="username" >

        <requestFocus />
    </EditText>

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/editText2"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/editText1"
        android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
        android:ems="10"
        android:hint="password" />

    <Button
        android:id="@+id/button1"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_below="@+id/editText2"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_marginLeft="18dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
        android:text="Log In" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView2"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:layout_marginTop="17dp"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:text="Sign up for facebook"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />

</RelativeLayout>

Android: How do I prevent the soft keyboard from pushing my view up?

You can simply switch your Activity's windowSoftInputModeflag to adjustPan in your AndroidMainfest.xml file inside your activity tag.

Check the official documentation for more info.

<activity
   ...
   android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan"> 
</activity>

If your container is not changing size, then you likely have the height set to "match parent". If possible, set the parent to "Wrap Content", or a constraint layout with constraingts to top and bottom of parent.

The parent container will shrink to fit the available space, so it is likely that your content should be inside of a scolling view to prevent (depending on the phone manufacturer and the layout choosen...)

1. Content being smashed together
2. Content hanging off the screen
3. Content being inacccessable due to it being underneath the keyboard

even if the layout it is in is a relative or constraint layout, the content could exhibit problems 1-3.

Push up content except some view when keyboard shown

With the new feature of WindowInsetsCompat which help detecting keyboard visibility easily (I follow answer here https://stackoverflow.com/a/63517673/5381331).

Instead of using windowSoftInputMode=adjustPan for less complex like before, now I can solve this problem by combine windowSoftInputMode=adjustResize with WindowInsetsCompat

ViewCompat.setOnApplyWindowInsetsListener(root) { v, insets ->
    val isKeyboardVisible = insets.isVisible(WindowInsetsCompat.Type.ime())
    
    if (isKeyboardVisible) {
        // Hide some view when keyboard visible
    } else {
        // Show it again here
    }
}

AndroidManifest

<activity android:name=".activity_name"
        android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"> // all content will push to above keyboard then we able to scroll to see whole content
   
</activity>

How to move the layout up when the soft keyboard is shown android

I somehow achieved this by knowing the status of the soft keyboard on the device. i move the layout to y position when the keyboard is shown and moved back to its original position when not shown. this works fine, followed this guidelines.
