I have an EditText (that the user can type numbers in),
so when the user clicks on the EditText text box a keyboard with numbers is opened.

This is how it looks when the text box is clicked

as you can see the keyboard hides a small part of the text box.

But when I press a key, for example, 0, it looks ok.
This is how it looks after after clicking 0

Is there anything I can do (besides putting the EditText higher) so it will looks like it does in the second picture?

Edit: the .xml code:

    I have tried your XML and yes you are right the problem occur.

    To solve the problem I have written this line in my MainActivity.java hope this help to you,And put the layout XML in ScrollView.

    Activity

    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
            setContentView(R.layout.temp);
            getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_HIDDEN);
    
            final EditText time = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.timeET);
            time.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
    
                public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
                    time.requestLayout();
                    MyActivity.this.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_UNSPECIFIED);
    
                    return false;
                }
            });
            final EditText date = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.dateET);
            date.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
    
                public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
                    time.requestLayout();
                    MyActivity.this.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_UNSPECIFIED);
    
                    return false;
                }
            });
             }
    

    And The XML is Like,

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
    <LinearLayout 
      xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" 
      android:orientation="vertical" 
      android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
      android:layout_height="fill_parent" > 
    
            <ScrollView android:id="@+id/scrollView1"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent" 
            android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
            android:weightSum="1">
    ---
    ---
    ---
            </ScrollView> 
    </LinearLayout>
