This is the Xml file, and I have a collapsing toolbar and a nested scroll view, but it isn't working, when I scroll the page the collapsing toolbar isn't working.
I have an image in the collapsing toolbar and a recycler view in the nested scroll view, when I scroll the recycle view the image view should collapse. But that isn't happening and is acting like a normal thing.

Having a recycler view as only child of nested scroll view is a bad practice since you are essentially taking away the one powerful aspect of recyclerview this way. Instead make the rest of the layout a part of nested layout as well and make recycler view android:nestedScrollingEnabled=false
After that add app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior" to nested scroll view.
Edit:-
Try adding toolbar inside collapsingToolbar with
app:layout_collapseMode="pin"
app:layout_scrollFlags="scroll|enterAlways"
Since collapsing toolbar is a frame layout you may have to adjust some margins to make it look like what you have right now

Android Tabs and CoordinatorLayout, need to add a row of textViews

Android Studio 3.5.1. Working with the Tabbed Activity template. I really don't understand the CoordinatorLayout stuff.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

This works great. Using Tabs with ListView on each tab, etc.
But, at the bottom of the screen, I want to add a row of TextViews that contain different status info. (e.g. Time since start, Counts, etc.) So I put a LinearLayout at the bottom of the XML. And added a few TextViews. It shows in Design View in Studio. But at the TOP. But when I launch the App on my phone, I don't see it anywhere.
So in short, how do I work with this XML (CoordinatorLayout) to add such a 'status bar' to my view at the bottom of the screen?

Use a RelativeLayout as the first child inside the CoordinatorLayout. Have the property android:layout_height="wrap_content" and android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" to the TextViews. The rest, i.e. ViewPager and TabLayout can remain as they are.

Bottom Sheet Above Bottom Navigation

My goal is to place a "bottom sheet" on top of a BottomNavigationView like this:
But it stays the following way. Both views collapse:
This is the xml of my main activity:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#drawable/tierrota"

<!-- include main content -->
<include layout="#layout/bottomsheet" />
<!-- include bottom sheet -->
<include layout="#layout/bottom_navigation" />
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
Code of bottom_navigation:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:gravity="center"

</LinearLayout>
I am new with these two elements. Is there someone who knows any way to achieve what I'm looking for?
I want my "bottom sheet" to act as such and can expand. My ultimate goal is to add a RecyclerView inside the BottomSheet.

To use the BottomSheet, it should be a child of the CoordinatorLayout. Here I have used relative layout as a parent layout for bottom navigation to stay at the bottom and then CoordinatorLayout above bottom navigation.
Here's a article that will help you.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary" />
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout
android:id="#+id/bottom_sheet_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#000000"
app:layout_behavior="android.support.design.widget.BottomSheetBehavior">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/bottom_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<View
android:layout_width="20dp"
android:layout_height="4dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
android:background="#drawable/view_bottom_sheet_top" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/near_by"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:fontFamily="#font/normal"
android:gravity="center"
android:includeFontPadding="false"
android:padding="10dp"
android:text="Book Now"
android:textAllCaps="true"
android:textColor="?attr/colorPrimaryText"
android:textSize="12sp" />
</LinearLayout>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recycler_view_maps"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_below="#id/bottom_view"
android:layoutAnimation="#anim/layout_animation">
</android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView>
</RelativeLayout>
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
<android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout
android:id="#+id/bottom_navigation_parent"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
app:elevation="1dp">
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:background="#color/colorContainerBackground"
/>
<!-- Start BottomNavigationView -->
<!-- End BottomNavigationView -->
</android.support.design.widget.AppBarLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
Don't forget to add this in your Activity/Fragment
private RelativeLayout bottomSheetParentLayout;
private BottomSheetBehavior mBottomSheetBehaviour;
mBottomSheetBehaviour = BottomSheetBehavior.from(bottomSheetParentLayout);
if (bottomNavigation != null) {
mBottomSheetBehaviour.setPeekHeight(bottomNavigation.getHeight() + 90);
}

Wrap the two elements inside a linear layout. Not sure how coordinator layout behaves but I think it will not allow you to "order" elements (similar to frame layout).

As far as I have understood your question, you want the RecyclerView to be shown in your bottom sheet. That is what makes the problem a lot easier. Let me tell you how.
You need to have a fixed height for your bottom navigation like this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
<android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView
android:id="#+id/bottom_navigation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="80dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
app:itemBackground="#color/colorClarito"
app:itemIconTint="#drawable/nav_item_color_state"
app:itemTextColor="#drawable/nav_item_color_state"
app:menu="#menu/bottom_navigation_main" />
</RelativeLayout>
Now in your bottom sheet, configure the RecyclerView with a clipToPadding attribute in it. Which will have some padding at the bottom of your RecyclerView. The idea is to have nothing in the covered area of the RecyclerView which is coming out with the bottom sheet.
Here's how you should declare your RecyclerView in your bottom sheet.
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/my_list"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:clipToPadding="false"
android:paddingBottom="80dp" />
Note that, I set the paddingBottom exactly to 80dp which is the height of the navigation view.
I hope this might help.

If you also have a CollapsingToolBar/Toolbar arrangement, this is the best solution for you:

app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
app:menu="#menu/home_bottom_navigation_menu" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>
It ensures that:
BottomSheet is a child of the CoordinatorLayout
BottomNavigation is still rested at the bottom
CollapsingToolbar/AppBarLayout arrangement is still in place as expected

To use the BottomSheet, it should be a child of the CoordinatorLayout, as iamnaran said.
So simply:
Put everything in RelativeLayout
Put BottomSheet in CoordinatorLayout
Set the BottomNavigation property "alignParentBottom" to true
Make new xml file in /res/value and put
<resources>
<dimen name="bottomNavigationHeight">50dp</dimen>
</resources>
Set the MarginBottom of the CoordinatorLayout (parent of BottomSheet) to
android:layout_marginBottom="#dimen/bottomNavigationHeight"
You can skip steps 4 and 5 by setting the MarginBottom of the CoordinatorLayout to:
android:layout_marginBottom="50dp"
But this may lead to confusion in near future
The whole code should look something like this:
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

how to put scroll view in collapsing toolbar layout in android?

I want something similar to below asked question where instead of 'view 1' ,it's going to be a scroll view :

You could try adding these two lines in your code:
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"

<Your code here with
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior">

Can you try to add this tag
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
<ScrollView android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="#+id/trial"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
----- your code
</ScrollView>
AppBarLayout also requires a separate scrolling sibling in order to know when to scroll. The binding is done through the AppBarLayout.ScrollingViewBehavior class, meaning that you should set your scrolling view's behavior to be an instance of AppBarLayout.ScrollingViewBehavior. A string resource containing the full class name is available.

<!-- When I add my own view here and use match_parent, it fills ENTIRE screen, even over the Toolbar. The ViewPager right above does not do this. Why? -->
</android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout>
I am trying to add my own buttons/textviews/etc to my activity_main.xml but I do not know where to add them. The android.support.v4.view.ViewPager uses match_parent although it does not fit the whole screen, it expands across the entire screen besides the Toolbar area at the top. However, whenever I add my own view underneath the android.support.v4.view.ViewPager, lets say RelativeView and set it to match_parent, it expands OVER the Toolbar. This led me to believe that I should put my contents inside the ViewPager tags but that does not work either.
Where should I put my views so that they are not overlapping the Toolbar?

You can wrap your ViewPager in an RelativeLayout and you can add the view child also.
Here is the code snippet which may help you-
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/colorAccent"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior">
<Button
android:id="#+id/button"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:text="I am clickable" />
<android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
android:id="#+id/container"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/button"
android:background="#color/colorNeutral"
android:layout_above="#+id/button2" />
<Button
android:layout_marginBottom="56dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:id="#+id/button2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="48dp"
android:text="I am clickable too" />
</RelativeLayout>
