Your issue is here:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/fragmentContainer"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dip"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Your FrameLayout
has a height of 0! That means all the content inside it is hidden. Set the layout_height
to something else such as match_parent
.
Also, side note, fill_parent
is deprecated now. You should use match_parent
.
