Elements in layout cropped

I have a problem with layout file, when i test it on devices with Android 4.1, why does it happens I don't know, so here's what i get:

enter image description here

And here's the part of layout where it happens: 

<LinearLayout
            android:id="@+id/chooseType"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:visibility="visible"
            android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"
            android:layout_marginStart="16dp"
            android:layout_marginRight="16dp"
            android:layout_marginEnd="16dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="12dp"
            android:orientation="horizontal">


            <CheckBox
                android:id="@+id/checkbox1"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:button="@drawable/custom_checkbox" />

            <CheckBox
                android:id="@+id/checkbox2"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:button="@drawable/custom_checkbox2" />

            <CheckBox
                android:id="@+id/checkbox3"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:button="@drawable/custom_checkbox3" />

            <CheckBox
                android:id="@+id/checkboxHomes"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:button="@drawable/custom_checkboxhouses" />

            <CheckBox
                android:id="@+id/checkboxRooms"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:button="@drawable/custom_checkboxrooms" />

        </LinearLayout>

I've tried to remove layout weight but it seems that somehow LinearLayout ignores it and tries to crop the last element in layout.

First, if you use LinearLayout's weights, children which you set weight should have android:layout_width="0dp" (or android:layout_width when LinearLayout's orientation is vertical).

Here you have an explanation.

Second case is that you did not set weight to last of checkboxes :)
