You do not have to do anything special in layout.xml file nor handle anything on the parent ScrollView. You only have to handle the child ListView. You can also use this code to use any type of child view inside a ScrollView & perform Touch operations.
Just add these lines of code in your java class :
listView.setOnTouchListener(new ListView.OnTouchListener() { @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; } });
