scroll view and list view issue in android

Question

I am adding a scroll view for whole layout. Inside that layout I am adding a lot of view list view and fixed footer. My list view content is not displaying properly. Its height is very short. Without scroll view it appears correctly. Can anybody tell me what the problem is and how to resolve it? list view is loading dynamically. My xml file is given below:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  android:layout_width="fill_parent"
  android:layout_height="fill_parent" >


  <ScrollView android:id="@+id/mainScrollView"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_weight="1" xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:fillViewport="true" android:scrollbars="none" android:isScrollContainer="false">


 <RelativeLayout
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

  android:layout_height="wrap_content">

It's because of android:layout_height="wrap_content" because you are setting the height of listview as wrap_content which results in the listview of smaller size. Increase the layout height or change it into fill_parent ,you will get the desired result
