Android How to adjust layout in Full Screen Mode when softkeyboard is visible

Question

I have researched a lot to adjust the layout when softkeyboard is active and I have successfully implemented it but the problem comes when I use android:theme=\"@andro

Answer 1

I implemented Joseph Johnson solution and it worked well, I noticed after using this solution sometimes the drawer on the application will not close properly. I added a functionality to remove the listener removeOnGlobalLayoutListener when the user closes the fragment where are edittexts located.

    //when the application uses full screen theme and the keyboard is shown the content not scrollable! 
//with this util it will be scrollable once again

    public static AndroidBug5497Workaround getInstance (Activity activity) {
        if(mInstance==null)
        {
            synchronized (AndroidBug5497Workaround.class)

        _globalListener = new ViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener()
        {

            @Override
            public void onGlobalLayout()
            {
                 possiblyResizeChildOfContent();

        };
    }

    public void setListener()

    }

    private void possiblyResizeChildOfContent() {
        int usableHeightNow = computeUsableHeight();
        if (usableHeightNow != usableHeightPrevious) {
            int usableHeightSansKeyboard = mChildOfContent.getRootView().getHeight();
            int heightDifference = usableHeightSansKeyboard - usableHeightNow;

    private int computeUsableHeight() {
        Rect r = new Rect();
        mChildOfContent.getWindowVisibleDisplayFrame(r);
        return (r.bottom - r.top);
    } 
}

uses the class where is my edittexts located

@Override
public void onStart()
{
    super.onStart();
    AndroidBug5497Workaround.getInstance(getActivity()).setListener();
}

@Override
public void onStop()
{
    super.onStop();
    AndroidBug5497Workaround.getInstance(getActivity()).removeListener();
}
