Android: Keyboard overlaps with the EditText (with printscreens)

Question

I have an EditText (that the user can type numbers in), so when the user clicks on the EditText text box a keyboard with numbers is opened.

as you can see the keyboard hides a small part of the text box.

But when I press a key, for example, 0, it looks ok.

Is there anything I can do (besides putting the EditText higher) so it will looks like it does in the second picture?

Edit: the .xml code:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

Answer 1

I have tried your XML and yes you are right the problem occur.

To solve the problem I have written this line in my MainActivity.java hope this help to you,And put the layout XML in ScrollView.

Activity

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.temp);
        getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_HIDDEN);

        final EditText time = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.timeET);
        time.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {

            public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
                time.requestLayout();
                MyActivity.this.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_UNSPECIFIED);

                return false;
            }
        });
        final EditText date = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.dateET);
        date.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {

            public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
                time.requestLayout();
                MyActivity.this.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_UNSPECIFIED);

                return false;
            }
        });
         }

And The XML is Like,

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

        <ScrollView android:id="@+id/scrollView1"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent" 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
        android:weightSum="1">
---
---
---
        </ScrollView> 
</LinearLayout> 

Answer 2

Change to ScrollView in this way:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
    <LinearLayout
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:weightSum="1" >
        <RelativeLayout
            android:id="@+id/relativeLayout1"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
            <LinearLayout
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:orientation="vertical"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:id="@+id/linearLayout1"
                android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
                android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
                android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
                android:layout_alignParentRight="true" >
                <android.widget.CheckedTextView
