Android Move the whole screen upwards when softkeypad is opened?

Question

I have tried using android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan|adjustResize" in my Manifest file but it doesn't make any sense.. thanks in advance ...

In your xml layout. Make the scrollview to be root parent, and it will work!

Try this to detect if keyboard is up, and then scroll down (you need your scroll to be root in xml):

final View activityRootView = findViewById(R.id.scroll);
activityRootView.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
    @Override
    public void onGlobalLayout() {
        int heightDiff = activityRootView.getRootView().getHeight() - activityRootView.getHeight();
        //keyboard is visible
        if (heightDiff > 100) {
            scroll.fullScroll(ScrollView.FOCUS_DOWN);
        }
    }
});
