Android - force full screen soft keyboard

Is there any way I can force soft keyboard to appear in full screen mode, so that there are only 2 items on the screen:

  1. Text content
  2. Keyboard

?

Android 2.3

I think you are looking for fullscreen or extract mode

Link to Android documentation

EDIT I forgot to mention this

The final major mode is fullscreen or extract mode. This is used when the IME is too large to reasonably share space with the underlying application. With the standard IMEs, you will only encounter this situation when the screen is in a landscape orientation, although other IMEs are free to use it whenever they desire

As I understand there's no way to do such a thing so that it works consistently across all devices and soft keyboards (well, unless you implement your own but I think this would be very out of scope)
