ListView inside ScrollView is not scrolling on Android

Question

I am having trouble with a scrolling ListView inside a ScrollView. I have an Activity which has some EditTexts in the top part and then a tab host with two tabs which have one ListView each. When the EditText views are focused, the soft keyboard comes up and as I have a ScrollView, the content is scrollable. But the problem comes when there are more items in ListViews (ones in tabs), I am not able to scroll the ListView, even if there are more items.

The following is the layout XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

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

            </LinearLayout>


          </FrameLayout>
        </LinearLayout>
      </TabHost>
    </LinearLayout>
  </ScrollView>
</RelativeLayout>

Please can anyone tell me what the problem is here? I have another post on the ListView inside ScrollView problem, but they were of no use in my case.

Answer 1

You shouldn't put a ListView inside a ScrollView because the ListView class implements its own scrolling and it just doesn't receive gestures because they all are handled by the parent ScrollView. I strongly recommend you to simplify your layout somehow. For example you can add views you want to be scrolled to the ListView as headers or footers.

UPDATE:

Starting from API Level 21 (Lollipop) nested scroll containers are officially supported by Android SDK. There're a bunch of methods in View and ViewGroup classes which provide this functionality. To make nested scrolling work on the Lollipop you have to enable it for a child scroll view by adding android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true" to its XML declaration or by explicitly calling setNestedScrollingEnabled(true).

If you want to make nested scrolling work on pre-Lollipop devices, which you probably do, you have to use corresponding utility classes from the Support library. First you have to replace you ScrollView with NestedScrollView. The latter implements both NestedScrollingParent and NestedScrollingChild so it can be used as a parent or a child scroll container.

But ListView doesn't support nested scrolling, therefore you need to subclass it and implement NestedScrollingChild. Fortunately, the Support library provides NestedScrollingChildHelper class, so you just have to create an instance of this class and call its methods from the corresponding methods of your view class.

Answer 2

I found a solution that works excellently and can scroll the ListView without problems:

ListView lv = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.myListView);  // your listview inside scrollview
lv.setOnTouchListener(new ListView.OnTouchListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
            int action = event.getAction();
            switch (action) {
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
                // Disallow ScrollView to intercept touch events.
                v.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
                break;

            case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
                // Allow ScrollView to intercept touch events.
                v.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(false);
                break;
            }

            // Handle ListView touch events.
            v.onTouchEvent(event);
            return true;
        }
    });

What this does is disable the TouchEvents on the ScrollView and make the ListView intercept them. It is simple and works all the time.

Answer 3

I have also one solution. I always use this method. Try this

<ScrollView
    android:id="@+id/createdrill_scrollView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" >


        <LinearLayout

            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
            android:layout_marginRight="20dp"
            android:layout_marginTop="15dp" >

            <net.thepaksoft.fdtrainer.NestedListView

            </net.thepaksoft.fdtrainer.NestedListView>
        </LinearLayout>

        <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"

Answer 4

You have to just replace your <ScrollView ></ScrollView> with this Custom ScrollView like <com.tmd.utils.VerticalScrollview > </com.tmd.utils.VerticalScrollview >

package com.tmd.utils;

import android.content.Context;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.MotionEvent;
import android.widget.ScrollView;

public class VerticalScrollview extends ScrollView{

    public VerticalScrollview(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

     public VerticalScrollview(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
            super(context, attrs);
        }

        public VerticalScrollview(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
            super(context, attrs, defStyle);
        }

    @Override
    public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
        final int action = ev.getAction();
        switch (action)
        {
            case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
                    Log.i("VerticalScrollview", "onInterceptTouchEvent: DOWN super false" );
                    super.onTouchEvent(ev);
                    break;

            case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
                    return false; // redirect MotionEvents to ourself

            case MotionEvent.ACTION_CANCEL:
                    Log.i("VerticalScrollview", "onInterceptTouchEvent: CANCEL super false" );
                    super.onTouchEvent(ev);
                    break;

            case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
                    Log.i("VerticalScrollview", "onInterceptTouchEvent: UP super false" );
                    return false;

            default: Log.i("VerticalScrollview", "onInterceptTouchEvent: " + action ); break;
        }

        return false;
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
        super.onTouchEvent(ev);
        Log.i("VerticalScrollview", "onTouchEvent. action: " + ev.getAction() );
         return true;
    }
}

Answer 5

I had a same issue and while googling I found your question. Yes marked answer worked for me also but there was some issue.
Anyways I found another solution. which works perfectly without doing any jugglery.

Answer 6

list.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
    // Setting on Touch Listener for handling the touch inside ScrollView
    @Override
    public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
        // Disallow the touch request for parent scroll on touch of child view
        v.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
        return false;
    }
});

Answer 7

I know this question is asked long ago, but who ever is stuck for now can solve this by adding this line into your ListView

android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true"

For Example -

                    <ListView
                    android:id="@+id/listView"
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true" />

Answer 8

Here is the exact method of using Listview with in the Scrollview. All we have to handle touch events.

      lstvNextTracks.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener()
      {
          @Override
          public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event)
          {
         Log.e("Lisview *************", "focused");
         SCView.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
         return false;
          }
      });




    SCView.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener()
    {

        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event)
        {
            int arr[] = new int[] { 1, 2 };
            lstvNextTracks.getLocationOnScreen(arr);

            /* Get bounds of child Listview*/
            int lstvTop = arr[0];
            int lstvBottom = arr[1] + lstvNextTracks.getHeight();
            int lstvLeft = arr[1];
            int lstvRight = arr[0] + lstvNextTracks.getWidth();

            float x = event.getRawX();
            float y = event.getRawY();

            if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN)
            {
                /*check if child ListView bounds are touched*/
                if (x > lstvTop && x < lstvBottom && y > lstvLeft && y < lstvRight)
                {
                    SCView.clearFocus();
                    /*This statement tells the ScrollView to do not handle this touch event, so the child Listview will handle this touch event and will scroll */
                    SCView.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
                    /*The child Listview isFocusable attribute must be set to true otherwise it will not work*/
                    lstvNextTracks.requestFocus();
                    return true;
                } else
                    return false;
            } else if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE)
            {

                if (x > lstvTop && x < lstvBottom && y > lstvLeft && y < lstvRight)
                {
                    SCView.clearFocus();
                    SCView.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
                    lstvNextTracks.requestFocus();
                    return true;
                } else
                    return false;
            } else if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP)
            {
                SCView.clearFocus();
                SCView.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
                lstvNextTracks.requestFocus();
                return false;
            } else
            {
                return false;
            }
        }
    });

Answer 9

Use the following method and enjoy!

private void setListViewScrollable(final ListView list) {
    list.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
            listViewTouchAction = event.getAction();
            if (listViewTouchAction == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE) {
                list.scrollBy(0, 1);
            }
            return false;
        }
    });

    list.setOnScrollListener(new OnScrollListener() {
        @Override
        public void onScrollStateChanged(AbsListView view, int scrollState) {

        }

        @Override
        public void onScroll(AbsListView view, int firstVisibleItem, int visibleItemCount, int totalItemCount) {
            if (listViewTouchAction == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE) {
                list.scrollBy(0, -1);
            }
        }
    });
}

listViewTouchAction is a global integer value. If you can replace the line

list.scrollBy(0, 1);

with something else please share it with us.

Enjoy!

Answer 10

Its a bad practice to have two different scrolling views together. ListView itself has its own scrolling functionality and height is auto adjusted according to Adapter settings for your row items (Keelping in mind, we are not setting specific height to ListView in our Layout xml). However in your case, you can replace ListView with a class and this will adjust height for your ListView keeping in mind that your ListView is inside ScrollView.

This will help you:

public class ExpandableHeightListview extends ListView
{

    boolean expanded = false;

    public ExpandableHeightListview(Context context)
    {
        super(context);
    }

    public ExpandableHeightListview(Context context, AttributeSet attrs)
    {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public ExpandableHeightListview(Context context, AttributeSet attrs,int defStyle)
    {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }

    public boolean isExpanded()
    {
        return expanded;
    }

    @Override
    public void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec)
    {
        // HACK! TAKE THAT ANDROID!
        if (isExpanded())
        {
            // Calculate entire height by providing a very large height hint.
            // But do not use the highest 2 bits of this integer; those are
            // reserved for the MeasureSpec mode.
            int expandSpec = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(Integer.MAX_VALUE >> 2, MeasureSpec.AT_MOST);
            super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, expandSpec);

            ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = getLayoutParams();
            params.height = getMeasuredHeight();
        }
        else
        {
            super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
        }
    }

    public void setExpanded(boolean expanded)
    {
        this.expanded = expanded;
    }
}

Now extend your ListView with this class, just change your ListView tag from your resource xml to smothing like this,

<yourpackagename.ExpandableHeightListview
            android:id="@+id/listView"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:background="@color/White"
            android:scrollbars="none"
            android:orientation="vertical"
            android:fadingEdge="none">
            </cyourpackagename.ExpandableHeightListview>

This will solve your scrolling problem of ListView, as now the parent scrolling is managed by ScrollView rather then ListView.

Answer 11

I've similar issue and resolved by creating custom class by extending with ListView.

ScrollableListView.java

import android.content.Context;
import android.util.AttributeSet;
import android.widget.ListView;

public class ScrollableListView extends ListView {

    public ScrollableListView (Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public ScrollableListView (Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public ScrollableListView (Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }

    @Override
    public void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        int expandSpec = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(Integer.MAX_VALUE >> 2,
                MeasureSpec.AT_MOST);
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, expandSpec);
    }
}

Usage:

<com.my.package.ScrollableListView
    android:id="@+id/listview"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

Answer 13

requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent (boolean disallowIntercept)

Called when a child does not want this parent and its ancestors to intercept touch events with onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent). This parent should pass this call onto its parents. This parent must obey this request for the duration of the touch (that is, only clear the flag after this parent has received an up or a cancel.

Try this answer,

    listview.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {

// Disallow the touch request for parent scroll on touch of child view
            scrollView.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);

            int action = event.getActionMasked();
            switch (action) {
                case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
                    scrollView.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(false);
                    break;
            }
            return false;
        }
    });

Answer 14

The best solution is to use NestedScrollVew with RecyclerView or if you want to go with Listview then you can add header and footer view to this. For example:

View footerView = ((LayoutInflater) getActivity().getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE)).inflate(R.layout.outofoffice_footer_view, null, false);
infoListView.addFooterView(footerView);

Answer 15

I have tried and tested nearly all the methods mentioned above, trust me, after completely running away from RecyclerView, I replaced my ListView with RecyclerView and it worked perfectly. Didnt need any 3rd Party library for ExtendedHeightListView and all, just plain and simple RecyclerView.

So Heres my Layout file before recyclerView:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</ScrollView>

THIS IS AFTER REPLACING MY LISTVIEW WITH ONE OF THE MANY SOLUTIONS MENTIONED ABOVE. So the problem was that the listview was not behaving properly due to 2 scrollview bug(maybe not a bug) in android.

I replaced the with recycler view to form form my final layout.

This is my recycler view adapter:

public class TrailerAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<TrailerAdapter.TrailerAdapterViewHolder> {

private ArrayList<String> Youtube_URLS;

private Context Context;

public TrailerAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<String> Youtube_URLS){
    this.Context = context;
    this.Youtube_URLS = Youtube_URLS;
}
@Override
public TrailerAdapter.TrailerAdapterViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
    View view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.trailer_layout, parent, false);
    return new TrailerAdapterViewHolder(view);
}

@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(TrailerAdapter.TrailerAdapterViewHolder holder, int position) {
    Picasso.with(Context).load(R.drawable.ic_play_arrow_black_24dp).into(holder.iv_playbutton);
    holder.item_id.setText(Youtube_URLS.get(position));
}

@Override
public int getItemCount() {
    if(Youtube_URLS.size()==0){
        return 0;
    }else{
        return Youtube_URLS.size();
    }
}

public class TrailerAdapterViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
    ImageView iv_playbutton;
    TextView item_id;

    public TrailerAdapterViewHolder(View itemView) {
        super(itemView);
        iv_playbutton = (ImageView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.play_button);
        item_id = (TextView)itemView.findViewById(R.id.tv_trailer_sequence);
    }
}
}

And this is my RecyclerView custom layout:

<RelativeLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="56dp"
    android:padding="6dip" >

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/play_button"
        android:layout_width="70dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginRight="6dip"
        android:layout_marginStart="12dp"
        android:src="@drawable/ic_play_arrow_black_24dp"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tv_trailer_sequence"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="26dip"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"
        android:layout_toEndOf="@+id/play_button"
        android:ellipsize="marquee"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:maxLines="1"
        android:text="Description"
        android:textSize="12sp" />

</RelativeLayout>

And VOILA, I got the desired effect of ListView(Now RecyclerView) within a scollview. Heres the Final Image of the UI

On a final note, I believe that replacing the RecyclerView was a better choice for me, as it improved the overall app stability, and also helped me understand RecyclerView better. If I were to suggest a solution, Im going to say replace your ListView with a RecyclerView.

Answer 16

I have had this error.And my solution is following as:

1. Create a custom listview which is non scrollable

public class NonScrollListView extends ListView {

public NonScrollListView(Context context) {
    super(context);
}
public NonScrollListView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
}
public NonScrollListView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
    super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}
@Override
public void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        int heightMeasureSpec_custom = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(
                Integer.MAX_VALUE >> 2, MeasureSpec.AT_MOST);
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec_custom);
        ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = getLayoutParams();
        params.height = getMeasuredHeight();    
}

}

2. Use above custom class for xml file

  <com.Example.NonScrollListView
        android:id="@+id/lv_nonscroll_list"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
    </com.Example.NonScrollListView>

Hope best for you.

Answer 17

Above solution given by @Shailesh Rohit works perfectly fine. Some tricks has to be done.

1. If you are putting helper class inside the same class( main class) then make Helper class as static and getListViewSize() not be static.

2. Most important, write "Helper.getListViewSize(listView);" statement after setting adapter for the first time like "listView.setAdapter(myAdapter);" as well as when ever you are using "myAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();"

3. Usage is shown below.

   listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView); myAdapter = new ArrayAdapter(this,android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, listValues); listView .setAdapter(myAdapter); Helper.getListViewSizelistView(listView);

   myAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged(); Helper.getListViewSizelistView(listView);

Answer 18

Best Code

<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:id="@+id/scrollView1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_above="@+id/btmlyt"
android:layout_below="@+id/deshead_tv">

<LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
   android:orientation="vertical"
   >

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/des_tv"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_above="@+id/btmlyt"
    android:background="@android:color/white"
    android:paddingLeft="3dp"
    android:paddingRight="3dp"
    android:scrollbars="vertical"
    android:paddingTop="3dp"
    android:text="description"
    android:textColor="@android:color/black"
    android:textSize="18sp" />
</LinearLayout>

</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>

Answer 19

Add: android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true"

Answer 20

Here is the best example

Add NestedScrollView instead of Scrollview

Add this line in ListView android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true"

 <androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView
       android:layout_width="match_parent"
       android:layout_height="match_parent"
       >       
        <ListView
             android:layout_width="match_parent"
             android:layout_height="wrap_content"
             android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true"
             />          
</androidx.core.widget.NestedScrollView>

Answer 21

As According to me while you are using setOnTouchListener om parent or child stop the scrolling of parent as you touch on child else stop scrolling of child as you touch on parent

Answer 22

Try this with ScrollView, not with ListView.

public class xScrollView extends ScrollView
{
    ;
    ;
    @Override
    public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent (MotionEvent ev)
    {
        return false;
    }
}

Answer 23

replace ListView by RecycleView inside ScrollView. it runs smoothly without additional source code:

 <ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context="com.example.hung.recycleviewtest.MainActivityFragment"
    >
    <RelativeLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content">
        <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
            android:id="@+id/recycle_view"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="400dp"
            android:background="@android:color/darker_gray"/>
        <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
            android:id="@+id/recycle_view_a"
            android:layout_marginTop="40dp"
            android:layout_below="@id/recycle_view"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="400dp"
            android:background="@android:color/darker_gray"/>
    </RelativeLayout>

</ScrollView>

Answer 24

For ListView inside ScrollView use NestedScrollView it can handle this functionality very easily:

<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">

        <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:orientation="vertical">

            <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
                android:id="@+id/recycler_view"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:padding="5dip"/>

        </LinearLayout>
    </android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>

Answer 25

I found a solution for that, Instead of using scrollview, You can use addHeaderview and addFooterview of listview

Here is my snippet,

//  create separate layout and add it dynamically
    scrollview=getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.yourlayout,null);
    lv=(ListView)listview.findViewById(R.id.listView2);
    lv.addHeaderView(scrollview);
    lv.setContentView(lv);

Now, with the listview your layout also can be scrolled. Enjoy it!!!

Answer 26

Replace ScrollView by android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView inside xml. it runs

1) Use in XML:::: android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView

instead of:::: ScrollView

2) And use for list view in this way using NonScrollListView in cs file:

public class NonScrollListView extends ListView {    

    public NonScrollListView(Context context) {    
        super(context);
    }    
    public NonScrollListView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }
    public NonScrollListView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }
    @Override
    public void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        int heightMeasureSpec_custom = MeasureSpec.makeMeasureSpec(
                Integer.MAX_VALUE >> 2, MeasureSpec.AT_MOST);
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec_custom);
        ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = getLayoutParams();
        params.height = getMeasuredHeight();
    }    
}    

3) Finally use this code to identify scrollview in cs file:

NonScrollListView listView = (NonScrollListView) view.findViewById(R.id.listview);

Answer 27

Use this method and your listview become scrollable inside scrollview:-

   ListView lstNewsOffer.setAdapter(new ViewOfferAdapter(
                            ViewNewsDetail.this, viewOfferList));
                    getListViewSize(lstNewsOffer);

void getListViewSize(ListView myListView) {
    ListAdapter myListAdapter = myListView.getAdapter();
    if (myListAdapter == null) {
        // do nothing return null
        return;
    }
    // set listAdapter in loop for getting final size
    int totalHeight = 0;
    for (int size = 0; size < myListAdapter.getCount(); size++) {
        View listItem = myListAdapter.getView(size, null, myListView);
        listItem.measure(0, 0);
        totalHeight += listItem.getMeasuredHeight();
    }
    // setting listview item in adapter
    ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = myListView.getLayoutParams();
    params.height = totalHeight
            + (myListView.getDividerHeight() * (myListAdapter.getCount() - 1));
    myListView.setLayoutParams(params);
    // print height of adapter on log
    Log.i("height of listItem:", String.valueOf(totalHeight));
}

Answer 28

You cannot add a ListView in a scroll View, as list view also scolls and there would be a synchonization problem between listview scroll and scroll view scoll. You can make a CustomList View and add this method into it.

@Override 
public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
    /*
     * Prevent parent controls from stealing our events once we've gotten a touch down
     */
    if (ev.getActionMasked() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
        ViewParent p = getParent();
        if (p != null) {
            p.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
        }
    }
    return false;
}

Answer 29

Dont give scroll view to ListView, coz it has that setting default

<ListView
    android:cacheColorHint="#00000000"
    android:id="@+id/ListView01"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" />
