Adding ScrollView

I need a lot of text in my app, and so far, the text just stops at the bottom of my screen. It's not scrollable, so I need a scrollview on my page. Now I understood that it's just something like putting Scrollview in your activity_main.xml, but that hasn't worked out for me yet.

The text itself is put in my strings.xml, the textviews in my activity_mains. This is the code for my MainActivity:

package com.example.rodekruis;

import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.text.Html;
import android.text.Spanned;
import android.text.method.LinkMovementMethod;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class ContactActivity extends Activity {


     TextView HyperLink;
     Spanned Text;
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_contact);







    }




}

This is my activity_main code:

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context="com.example.rodekruis.Bezoek" >

    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="left"
        android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
        android:src="@drawable/rkz_logo"
        android:layout_marginLeft="38dp" />


     <ScrollView
    android:id="@+id/scrollview"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    >

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="350dp"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView1"
        android:layout_width="244dp"
        android:layout_height="276dp"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:text="@string/title_activity_contact"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
        android:textColor="@color/black" />


</LinearLayout>

</ScrollView>
</LinearLayout>

This is how it looks like in the Graphic Layout. The text stops halfway, i'm not able to scroll down.

try something like this... you constraint the size at the scrollview instead of the textview. 

<ScrollView
    android:id="@+id/scrollview"
    android:layout_width="244dp"
    android:layout_height="276dp"
    >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView1" 
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" 
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:text="@string/title_activity_contact"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
        android:textColor="@color/black" />

</ScrollView>

Simply change your layout as follow : 

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
tools:context="com.example.rodekruis.Bezoek" >

<ImageView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="left"
    android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
    android:src="@drawable/rkz_logo"
    android:layout_marginLeft="38dp" />


  <ScrollView
    android:id="@+id/scrollview"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    <TextView
      android:id="@+id/textView1"
      android:layout_width="244dp"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"
      android:layout_gravity="center"
      android:text="@string/title_activity_contact"
      android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall"
      android:textColor="@color/black" />
    </ScrollView>
</LinearLayout>

Try changing the height of the scrollview to wrap_content like this:

<ScrollView
    android:id="@+id/scrollview"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    >
