</RelativeLayout>

Answer 1

you actually need to specify ListView position according to tabs as you want them above then use RelativeLayout property android:layout_above="id_of_FrameLayout_containing_ListView " which displays your list as you want.

And for content within ListView check that items you added are added correctly and if using AdapterClass for drawing each List Item..

hope this explanation works for you…
