android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"

Answer 2

Thanks for your valuable input. Finally I have fixed this issue.

What I found the reason behind this issue is application theme. My application theme was

android:Theme.Light in which I found this issue. I have only changed the theme of my EditText layout activity by setting

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar" e.g. <activity android:name=".activity.LiveStreamingActivity" android:label="@string/title_activity_event_performer" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Black.NoTitleBar" android:screenOrientation="portrait" />

This solved my problem !!!

Answer 3

May be your activity is full screen. Try clearing the FULLSCREEN flag.

Answer 4

I too had the same issue and it was because of the usage of a menudrawer library which was not supported by lollipop and when I replace that with default navigation drawer of android the things started working fine.Please check with the libraries if you use any.

Answer 5

The important value is the adjustResize. This will shift the whole UI up to give room for the soft keyboard.

<activity
        android:name="com.my.MainActivity"
        android:screenOrientation="portrait"
        android:label="@string/title_activity_main"
        android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize|stateHidden" >
    </activity>
