Android ScrollView is not scrolling with a relative layout

I have the following xml layout but my scrollview is not scrolling when I run the app. What am I doing wrong? I am trying to use a Relative layout in the scrollview instead of a Linear Layout Here is the xml..

<ScrollView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content">

    <RelativeLayout
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical">

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"

That is because you set the height of the ScrollView to fill_parent. Try using a LinearLayout with weight so it fills the space left over from the other views.

If you do not want to set it to a specific height, you can also add

android:fillViewport="true"

to your ScrollView
