I would assume that GridView does not support wrap_content for android:layout_height, no different that ListView. I'm not sure it supports wrap_content for android:layout_width, either. And, of course, your RelativeLayout doesn't have the attribute in your post title, though I assume that's a copy/paste issue. :-)
Try it with a GridView with fixed dimensions and see what happens.
