Android move view on top of the keyboard - java

I want to move an edit text on top of the keyboard when the keyboard opens. And when the keyboard closes I want to move the view back to its original position. Something like this video.
Here in the video when you tap on the edit text field the keyboard opens and the view translates on top of the keyboard, now when the keyboard closes the edit text comes back to the original position. Also, notice how any view on the background is not moving its place only edit text is moving.
I have done this partially by android:windowSoftInputMode in the activity. but doing so will move the entire activity not that only particular edit text.
So can anyone please guide me with this?

In your Manifest file inside the selected activist tag add
android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"
and in your EditText add
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
Hope this might help

Android Studio viewFlipper Crashing App

I'm making an application. I have succeeded in creating a viewFlipper with:
android:flipInterval="5000"
android:autoStart="true"
I've also made two buttons, next and previous, with:
android:clickable="true"
android:onClick="onClick"
I want each button to affect the ViewFlipper, as in when the next button is pressed, the next image is displayed. And, when the previous button is pressed, the previous image is displayed.
What do I need to add to the XML file and what do I need to add to the MainActivity class? Everything I've tried up until now either prevents the app opening or crashes the app when the button is pressed.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Android Scrollview gets overlapped by a view and keyboard

I have searched the web for about 2 hours and no solution, now I will try it here.
My problem is that when I open the keyboard the scrollview gets overlapped by a view and the keyboard. I want to see the bottom elements of the scrollview.
Here are the screenshots: screenshot1, screenshot2.
The scrollview doesn't respond to adjustReize like other views do, the solution (like other people have done e.g. Why doesn't android:windowSoftInputMode="stateVisible|adjustResize" adjust the screen when soft keyboard is shown?) will simply listen to the view's hierarchy and scroll to the bottom when the keyboard is shown

Arrow icon in the keyboard like snapchat app - Android EditText

I need to store the user input in an EditText after the user write something and clicks the blue keyboard button (on the bottom right of the keyboard). Instead of the classic check icon I would prefer an arrow icon like the one in the snapchat app in the text field for "normal" messages. Anyone knows how to do that? I guess it depends on the value of the android:inputType attribute in the xml file, but I can't find any values that make the keyboard have that arrow icon.

Soft keyboard hides EditText

Already tried setting android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" in the manifest file,
When I tap the bottom (4th one from top) EditText, the soft keyboard partially hides it:
This however does not happen in the Android emulator - the screen pans and I get the focus on the EditText (keyboard still covers a small part of the EditText but it's acceptable I think):
Put your EditText inside the ScrollView and then give property adjustResize, instead of adjustPan, it will automatically adjust your screen and its components.
