There is no TextView in your layout. The two main approaches for putting some widget "at the bottom last line of the screen" are:
1. Use a LinearLayout parent for the widget and the other stuff. Use android:layout_height="0px" and android:layout_weight="1" for the other stuff. Use a regular android:layout_height for the widget and no android:layout_weight for it. 2. Use a RelativeLayout parent for the widget and the other stuff. Define the widget as having android:layout_alignParentBottom="true". Define the other stuff as having android:layout_alignParentTop="true" and android:layout_above="...", where the ... is the ID of the widget.
