How to disable ScrollView scrolling?

Create a custom ScrollView and use it wherever you wants.

class CustomScrollView extends ScrollView { // true if we can scroll the ScrollView // false if we cannot scroll private boolean scrollable = true; public void setScrollingEnabled(boolean scrollable) { this.scrollable = scrollable; } public boolean isScrollable() { return scrollable; } @Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) { switch (ev.getAction()) { case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN: // if we can scroll pass the event to the superclass if (scrollable) return super.onTouchEvent(ev); // only continue to handle the touch event if scrolling enabled return scrollable; // scrollable is always false at this point default: return super.onTouchEvent(ev); } } @Override public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) { // Don't do anything with intercepted touch events if // we are not scrollable if (!scrollable) return false; else return super.onInterceptTouchEvent(ev); } } 

This can be use in layout

<com.packagename.CustomScrollView android:id="@+id/scrollView" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_width="fill_parent"> </com.packagename.CustomScrollView > 

Then invoke

((CustomScrollView )findViewById(R.id.scrollView)).setIsScrollable(false); 

Try and see:

 scrollView.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() { @Override public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub return isBlockedScrollView; } }); 

if you are wanting to disable the SecrollView because it rises by itself when scrolling horizontally in a scroll view that is inside it, make sure there is no EdtiText with focus , because the ScrollView will scroll wherever it has focus.
