Go to Preferences -> Android -> Editors and uncheck the first option
("Format XML files using the standard Android XML style rather than
the configured Eclipse XML style (additional options below)".
The builtin Eclipse XML formatter isn't suitable for formatting XML files
the "standard" Android way (where for example layouts and value files are
formatted differently), so in Android projects we use an alternate
formatter (which also sorts attributes etc). If you uncheck the option
above, it will just use the default Eclipse XML formatter instead.
