Answer 1

just replace wrap_content in place of fill_parent at button linear Layout.

change to

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<Button 
    android:layout_weight="0.5"
    android:id="@+id/back"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/cancel"/>

<Button 
    android:layout_weight="0.5"
    android:layout_gravity="right"
    android:id="@+id/editall"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/editall"/>
</LinearLayout>
<ListView 
    android:id="@android:id/list"
    android:cacheColorHint="#00000000"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
    android:fadingEdge="none"/>
</LinearLayout>
