Android: Shape in REAL background

[pallav]

Im using a shape for the background of my activities.The looks great but works only for ~90% because the shape is lying OVER some elements like buttons or textviews.Some buttons are displayed correctly but some others look like they are in the background of the shape?!GreetsCode:http://pastie.org/private/xxrgz6gqjnk1ufjyc6ms6a
