Android - ImageView and TextView not appearing

I want to display an ImageView then her TextView details followed by an other ImageView and her TextView details and then a text view and under them an ImageView then her TextView. So i put 2 child LinearLayouts that has orientation set to horizontal and the parent with orientation vertical but the second child LinearLayout is not appearing at all I don't know why. Thank you for helping. This is my activity.xml :

<?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:background="@drawable/fondgris"
    android:orientation="horizontal" >

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/linearLayout1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <LinearLayout
            android:id="@+id/linearLayout2"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:orientation="horizontal" >

            <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/imageTypeWorkitem"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:paddingRight="15dp"
                android:paddingTop="10dp"
                android:src="@drawable/bugicon" />

            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/typeWorkitem"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:textSize="14sp"
                android:textStyle="bold" />

            <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/imagePriority"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:paddingRight="15dp"
                android:paddingTop="10dp"
                android:src="@drawable/priorityhigh" />

            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/priority"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:textSize="14sp"
                android:textStyle="bold" />

            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/key"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:textSize="14sp"
                android:textStyle="bold" />
        </LinearLayout>

        <LinearLayout
            android:id="@+id/linearLayout3"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:orientation="horizontal" >

            <ImageView
                android:id="@+id/imageStatus"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:paddingRight="15dp"
                android:paddingTop="10dp"
                android:src="@drawable/statusopen" />

            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/status"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"

                android:layout_below="@+id/priority"
                android:textSize="14sp"

Your linearLayout1 has the property android:orientation="vertical" but then the very first child (linearLayout2) has android:layout_height="match_parent", which means the second child (linearLayout3) will have no space since first one will take over full height of the parent.

So you can change both children to have android:layout_height="wrap_content" and maybe add android:layout_weight="1" for both if you want.

Not sure if I'm understanding this correctly but from what you describe I would try using a relative layout as your parent and creating linear layouts inside of that that are relative to each other (one on top of the other).

The content is larger than the screen and it is hidden. You must use ScrollView.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:fillViewPort="true" >

<LinearLayout 
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:background="@drawable/fondgris"
    android:orientation="horizontal" >
    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/linearLayout1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <LinearLayout
            android:id="@+id/linearLayout2"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:orientation="horizontal" >

            <ImageView
