See Android background image

Question

See Android background image

I wanted to know how I can set up a background image, so that it looks on absolutely the entire screen, pull out the ActionBar and I want to put the notification bar transparent so that the image looks there too. Thanks in advance.

Had tried:

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/imageView"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:background="@drawable/background"/>

For the background image, give a background to the Layout with android:background="@drawable/background_game_screen", example:

<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:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:background="@drawable/background_game_screen"

For notification bar transparency try placing this in your theme:

<item name="android:windowTranslucentStatus">true</item>
<item name="android:windowTranslucentNavigation">true</item>

And if you want to remove the ActionBar do it with this:

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar"

Or by Code:

ActionBar actionBar = getActionBar(); //o en su caso getSupportActionBar();
actionBar.hide();

Several options, the first would be by defining an image as a background using the property android:background

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"    
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" 
    android:background="@drawable/mi_fondo">
</RelativeLayout>

The second, using a ImageView with properties, android:layout_width="match_parent" and android:layout_height="match_parent", defining an image with the property android:background:

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/myImageView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@drawable/mi_fondo"/>

The third using an ImageView, using the property android:scaleType="fitXY":

   <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/Load_img_splash"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:contentDescription="@null"
            android:scaleType="fitXY"                            
            android:src="@drawable/mi_imagen" />

And the fourth, defining a theme, where you define the image :

<style name="miFondo" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
    <item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/mi_fondo</item>
    <item name="android:windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>

And load it from your activity, defining the topic in the AndroidManifest.xml

 <activity android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:theme="@style/miFondo"></activity>
