Weight and soft keyboard Android Linear Layout

Question

I am trying to make the following presentation in a chat application. Basically, there are two states: one with a display with a soft touch keyboard and one without it. Sorry for my misconception, please with me.

So this is my initial state without showing the keyboard.

This is what happens when the keyboard appears.

This is what I am trying to achieve.

Note I use "adjust-resize" as windowSoftInputMode. I know that using "adjust-pan" will fix the problem, but there are 2 problems with setting up "pan-pan":

• The toolbar also moves the space for editing text and keyboard.
• Text editing is partially covered by the keyboard.
