Place all your layouts inside a ScrollView with width and height set to fill parent

You cannot make a LinearLayout scrollable because it is not a scrollable container  Only scrollable containers such as ScrollView  HorizontalScrollView  ListView  GridView  ExpandableListView can be made scrollable  I suggest you place your LinearLayout inside a ScrollView which will by default show vertical scrollbars if there is enough content to scroll   lt  xml version  quot 1 0 quot  encoding  quot utf-8 quot   gt   lt ScrollView     gt        lt LinearLayout     gt                                 lt  LinearLayout gt    lt  ScrollView gt   Note   ScrollView takes only one view as its child  So better that child view be a Linear Layout

lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt ScrollView     gt        lt LinearLayout     gt                                 lt  LinearLayout gt    lt  ScrollView gt

Put your whole content in linear layout which is placed inside ScrollView   ScrollView takes only one layout as its child   isScrollContainer  true    This property is used when your softkey in android pops up and still you want your view to scroll

you can make any layout scrollable  Just under  lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt  add these lines    lt ScrollView xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      android layout width  match parent      android layout height  match parent  gt    and at the end add  lt  ScrollView gt   example of a non-scrollable activity    lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt   lt RelativeLayout xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      xmlns tools  http   schemas android com tools      android id    id activity main      android layout width  match parent      android layout height  match parent      android orientation  vertical      android paddingBottom   dimen activity vertical margin      android paddingLeft   dimen activity horizontal margin      android paddingRight   dimen activity horizontal margin      android paddingTop   dimen activity vertical margin      android verticalScrollbarPosition  right      tools context  p32929 demo MainActivity  gt         lt TextView         android text  TextView          android layout width  wrap content          android layout height  wrap content          android layout alignParentTop  true          android layout centerHorizontal  true          android layout marginTop  102dp          android id    id textView          android textSize  30sp    gt   lt  RelativeLayout gt    After making it scrollable  it becomes like this    lt  xml version  1 0  encoding  utf-8   gt    lt ScrollView xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android      android layout width  match parent      android layout height  match parent  gt        lt RelativeLayout xmlns android  http   schemas android com apk res android          xmlns tools  http   schemas android com tools          android id    id activity main          android layout width  match parent          android layout height  match parent          android orientation  vertical          android paddingBottom   dimen activity vertical margin          android paddingLeft   dimen activity horizontal margin          android paddingRight   dimen activity horizontal margin          android paddingTop   dimen activity vertical margin          android verticalScrollbarPosition  right          tools context  p32929 demo MainActivity  gt             lt TextView             android id    id textView              android layout width  wrap content              android layout height  wrap content              android layout alignParentTop  true              android layout centerHorizontal  true              android layout marginTop  102dp              android text  TextView              android textSize  30sp    gt       lt  RelativeLayout gt   lt  ScrollView gt

You can implement it using View scrollTo     also   postDelayed new Runnable                 public void run                      counter    int   counter   10                   handler postDelayed this  100                        llParent scrollTo counter   0                                               1000L
