How to Test

First, navigate to kav_test_fix and run npm install.

Run the project as usual with npm run android.

There are 2 views in the app:

• KAV example: demonstrates that ScrollView does not work properly when the user interacts with a TextInput in a ScrollView nested in a KeyboardAvoidingView.
• Momentum example: demonstrates that the ScrollView momentum stops correctly when calling scrollTo programmatically after this fix was introduced in version 0.72.0.

Change android:windowSoftInputMode

If we set android:windowSoftInputMode=stateUnspecified, the ScrollView starts responding again to Keyboard events, but it still does not work properly as you can't scroll down the ScrollView when the Keyboard is open.

To test this behavior, run npm run softinput-unspecified, and then rebuild the Android project (cd android && ./gradlew clean && cd .. && npm run android).

After testing, revert to the default setting with npm run softinput-resize.

Proposed Fix

To check the proposed fix, we need to first build ReactAndroid from sources:

• Run npm run android-sources to edit the android/settings.gradle file.
• Run rm -rf node_modules and npm install (I'm not sure if this step is actually needed, but without it, the build consistently failed on my device).
• Run npm run android-patch to patch ReactAndroid.
• Run cd android && ./gradlew clean && cd .. && npm run android to clean and rebuild.

Now both example screens should work correctly.
