Put your list view inside a linear layout and give layout_weight="50" to the linear layout.Then make the listview width and height to fill parent.

Also give linear_layout layout height="0dp"

You need to alter your xml as below:

//alter both LinearLayout as
android:layout_weight="25"
android:layout_height="0dp"

//alter ListView as
android:layout_weight="50"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:isScrollContainer="false"
