Answer 1

By many days spent,I found a solution. It is a hack.

1. put you edittext wrapped in linearlayout.

2. detect softkeyboard show by visiable layout change.

    public final void setKeyboardListener(final OnKeyboardVisibilityListener listener) {
   
    final View activityRootView = getWindow().getDecorView()
       .findViewById(android.R.id.content);
        activityRootView.getViewTreeObserver()
       .addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
   
         private final Rect r = new Rect();
         private boolean wasOpened;
   
         @Override
         public void onGlobalLayout() {
           activityRootView.getWindowVisibleDisplayFrame(r);
   
           int heightDiff = activityRootView.getRootView().getHeight()
               - (r.bottom - r.top);
           boolean isOpen = heightDiff > 100;
   
           if (isOpen == wasOpened) {
             return;
           }
   
           wasOpened = isOpen;
           listener.onVisibilityChanged(isOpen);
         }
       });
      }
   
     public interface OnKeyboardVisibilityListener {
   
      void onVisibilityChanged(boolean visible);
       }
   

3. when the softkeyboard show,pick up a textview in listview item or expandablelistview child item. then set it text for any thing, the whole view scrolled as normal! code like this:

   activity.setKeyboardListener(new OnKeyboardVisibilityListener() {
     @Override
   public void onVisibilityChanged(boolean visible) {
   if (visible) {
     Message message = new Message();
     message.what = 999;
     handler.sendMessage(message);
     }
    }
   });
   private Handler handler = new Handler() {
    @Override
   public void handleMessage(Message msg) {
   if (msg.what == 999) {
     if (mDataMap.size() > 0) {
     for (int i = 0; i < expandablelistview.getChildCount(); i++) {
       View v = expandablelistview.getChildAt(i);
       TextView tvCannotSee = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.tv_cannot_see );
       if (tvCannotSee != null) {
         //this is the key hack to make adjuspan work! and scroll the whole view up as normal
         tvCannotSee.setText("this is an android bug");
         return;
         }
       }
      }
      return;
     }
    super.handleMessage(msg);
    }
   };
   

4. this textview show invisble to user for proper purpose.if it is a expandablelistview and the edittext in childitem,the textview update must be in a childitem.

I also faced the same issue, but after googling the issue for some time i ended up the problem as below.

1) Add android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" tag inside activity of manifest file

    <activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:configChanges="locale|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize|layoutDirection|screenLayout"
        android:screenOrientation="portrait"
        android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustResize|adjustPan"></activity>

2) add android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants" attribute to your expandable listview as below.

    <ExpandableListView
                android:id="@android:id/list"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_above="@+id/textDate"
                android:layout_below="@+id/relativeLayout2"
                android:descendantFocusability="beforeDescendants"
                android:layout_margin="@dimen/margin_meium"
                android:groupIndicator="@android:color/transparent" />
