In your adapter's xml , RelativeLayout tag ,write wrap_content replace of match_parent like below;
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

Change your single_listview_item.XML's RelativeLayout from android:layout_height="match_parent" to android:layout_height="wrap_content"
Change your ListView's height to wrap_content too

In a relative layout how can I make the last element adjust to the increase of data in the preceding elements?

I have a layout as follows. The problem I have is that if the TextView of friend_name is very long it “pushes” down the rest and they overlap/cover last ViewStub of friend_last_msg
How can I make the last ViewStub to also “adjust” on this “lowering of the other widgets?
Or else how could I make that last view stub to be inside the LinearLayout and displayed to the left side and down?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/parent_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:baselineAligned="false"
>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/friend_img”
android:layout_width="#dimen/friend_big”
android:layout_height="#dimen/friend_big”
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/friend_img"
>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/friend_name”
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/friend_img"
android:layout_marginBottom="#dimen/layout_small_padding"
android:includeFontPadding="false"
android:paddingBottom="0dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="fill_horizontal"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:gravity="top"
/>
<ViewStub
android:id="#+id/friend_sign”
android:inflatedId="#+id/friend_sign"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout="#layout/friend_sign_layout”/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/friend_contact”
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="1dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="1dp"
android:padding="5dp"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<ViewStub
android:id="#+id/friend_last_msg”
android:inflatedId="#+id/friend_last_msg"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout="#layout/friend_last_msg"/>
</RelativeLayout>

First of all enter the closing commas right like this then enter the android:layout_height and android:layout_width values according to your needs.
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/parent_container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:baselineAligned="false"
>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/friend_img[**"**]
android:layout_width="#dimen/friend_big[**"**]
android:layout_height="#dimen/friend_big"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
/>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/friend_img"
>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/friend_name[**"**]
android:layout_toRightOf="#id/friend_img"
android:layout_marginBottom="#dimen/layout_small_padding"
android:includeFontPadding="false"
android:paddingBottom="0dp"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="fill_horizontal"
android:ellipsize="end"
android:gravity="top"
/>
<ViewStub
android:id="#+id/friend_sign"
android:inflatedId="#+id/friend_sign"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout="#layout/friend_sign_layout"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/friend_contact"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="1dp"
android:layout_marginBottom="1dp"
android:padding="5dp"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<ViewStub
android:id="#+id/friend_last_msg"
android:inflatedId="#+id/friend_last_msg"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout="#layout/friend_last_msg"/>

You can to use this way:
Add an id -> #+id/container to parent
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginLeft="8dp"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/friend_img"
android:orientation="vertical">
For your stub layout just change to this:
<ViewStub
android:id="#+id/friend_last_msg"
android:inflatedId="#+id/friend_last_msg"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/container"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/friend_img"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout="#layout/friend_last_msg"/>

Android Imageview is being cropped inside gridview

I have the following layout :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#ededed" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="40dp"
android:background="#172982"
android:paddingTop="5dp"
android:paddingBottom="5dp"
android:paddingLeft="5dp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:textColor="#ffffff"
android:textSize="20sp"
android:text="Stories" />
<GridView
android:id="#+id/grid"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clipChildren="true"
android:columnWidth="150dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:numColumns="auto_fit"
android:scrollbars="none"
android:stretchMode="columnWidth" >
</GridView>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:paddingBottom="5dp"
android:paddingLeft="9dp"
android:paddingRight="9dp"
android:paddingTop="5dp" >
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="40dp"
android:background="#172982"
android:paddingTop="5dp"
android:paddingBottom="5dp"
android:paddingLeft="5dp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:textColor="#ffffff"
android:textSize="20sp"
android:text="Dictionaries" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
In this layout I'm filling each cell of the gridview with a linearlayout containing an imageview and a textview through the following xml file :
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:padding="5dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:orientation="vertical">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/grid_image"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:adjustViewBounds="true">
</ImageView>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/grid_text"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
android:text="asdsadas"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:textSize="20sp" >
</TextView>
</LinearLayout>
The problem is the imageviews inside the gridview are being cropped (cut in half), I'm not able to see the whole image. Any solution please ?

set Imageview's android:scaleType property to "centerCrop"

Android layout inconsistency

I have a layout that is being displayed in two different layouts. First one is being displayed in a LinearLayout and it behaves as expected:
However, when this layout is part of a listview, the textview is not centered:
Here's the layout:

The textView that I am referring to is at the bottom with id comment_tv
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

Your pin+text inside a relative layout:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="60dp"
android:layout_gravity="center_vertical" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/pin"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/ic_pin"/>
<TextView
android:id="#+id/comment_tv"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignTop="#id/pin"
android:gravity="center"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp" //set this higher if you need
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" //if this text will be not in the center
//you can use the "layout_marginLeft" to put whatever you want
/>
</RelativeLayout>
This should but the text on the spot you want

I tried it with your image and this is my result with underlying code. Is this what you are looking for?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout 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:background="#drawable/sample"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="12"
android:textSize="18sp" />
</LinearLayout>
And heres a snapshot of this code:

create your own divider gradient named “list_divider” which is an xml file that you throw in your drawable folder. you just specify the colors for the left, center and right side:
list_divider.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<shape>
<gradient
android:startColor="#999999"
android:centerColor="#555555"
android:endColor="#999999"
android:height="1px"
android:angle="0" />
</shape>
</item>
</layer-list>
layout for each row in the list. This is also done through a layout xml file that you specify later in your code.
row.xml

edit: removed line number, because i m a kind person

Heere ya go: you just use linear layout instead of relative. and use its weights. and the last important thing is to wrap views inside layout components. like ImageView inside another linearlayout or relative etc.. so try some combinations with this and it will work fine. also for the list divider you can set a null drawable or a custom shape etc. your row background can also be a shape or some color or drawable.
