Android two lists vertically using 50% -50% of the screen height

I would like to use two ListViewson the same screen vertically one below the other, and also two ListViewequally occupy 50% -50% of the screen. My problem is that I created a layout, the eclipse(graphic layout) looks great, but on the device it does not take up half the screen. It seems to depend on the content ListView. How can I do it right?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="#f0f0f0"
    android:weightSum="1.0">

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginBottom="5dip"
        android:textSize="18sp"
        android:textStyle="bold"
        android:gravity="left"
        android:textColor="#000"
        android:text="Some Text" />

        <ListView
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent"
            android:layout_marginLeft="10dip"
            android:layout_marginRight="10dip"
            android:layout_weight="0.5"
            android:background="#FB0"
            android:scrollbars="none"
            android:dividerHeight="2dip" />

        <ListView
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent"
            android:layout_marginLeft="10dip"
            android:layout_marginRight="10dip"
            android:layout_weight="0.5"
            android:background="#FB0"
            android:scrollbars="none"
            android:dividerHeight="2dip" />
</LinearLayout>

You must enter LinearLayoutand use layout_weightby setting layout_height="0dp".

Here is an example:

<TextView 
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">

        <ListView
           android:layout_width="fill_parent"
           android:layout_height="0dp"
           android:layout_weight="0.5" />

        <ListView
           android:layout_width="fill_parent"
           android:layout_height="0dp"
           android:layout_weight="0.5" />

</LinearLayout>
