I've implemented nested tabs with view pager with no problems, but my problem is on the swiping part,
When I do the swiping action the main activity tabs will be switched, but I want the fragment to swipe instead. how can I achieve this?
I've tried implement main tab with tab host and fragment tabhost which doesn't have swiping feature at all, but that disabled whole swipe on the main and fragment together.
Instead of custom library you can try to use Bottom navigation view for bottom bar which has been added to version 25 of the Design Support Library. Here is an Article about it.
So android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationViewin your activity together with android.support.design.widget.TabLayout and ViewPagerin fragment should work the way you want it to work. And this will also provide good UX (similar to one implemented in Google Plus App)
hello shaheen zahedi maybe it's possible please..with..below
just set bottom tab changed listener
like..
btnTab.setTabChangeListener(null);
You can disable view pager swiping on a particular ViewPager.
But I would suggest to not make 2 ViewPagers on the same screen.
Your bottom TabLayout and corresponding ViewPager can be replaced with BottomBar library.
I feel like it is wise to follow the Google Material guidelines. Not sure if you checked it out already...
Either way, here is what Google considers best practice for lateral navigation between tabs. Hope it helps!
I made a sample project with nested tab and fragment. may be it might help what is you looking for.

I am stuck with a problem where I have designed a tab layout that I have used as a library in the current project which has a Recycler View. I want to show the tab layout on top and the recycler view under the tab layout.
For reference in Whatsapp, there is tab layout under which there is a recycler view that shows all the messages.
Problem is that I am confused about how to combine both activities together so the user can use the tab layout.
If anyone knows any solution please help!!
Use single-activity pattern. This pattern means that you need to use Fragments in a single activity (MainActivity, etc). Additional tip, you can use ViewPager2 with TabLayout for your Fragments.
Activities can't be composed into one, cause it designed so.
I would like to achieve a navigation in my app like Pinterest or Trello, that is, kind of three tabs to navigation + horizontal scrolling.
I have made a custom tabbar for this (since I couldn't guess how to change tabs width in my actionbar with navigation TAB mode). So I have three buttons to navigate from one fragment to another. Now I would like to implement the horizontal scrolling like these two examples, to also navigate among my fragments.
I have read about View Pager but I don't know if it fits to my case, since I don't have only views but fragments. Does anybody have an example or an idea of how to do it? Could I apply it among different activities?
Thanks
Please take a look at the duplicate question that I just answered:
How to implement a swipe-gesture between Fragments?
I suppose the Android ViewPager is what you are looking for:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/support/v4/view/ViewPager.html
Here is a nice tutorial on how to implement it:
http://developer.android.com/training/animation/screen-slide.html
The basic idea is that you have multiple Fragments, each representing
a different Screen. The ViewPager enables the user to swipe between
the different Fragments and display different content.
You can use ViewPager. More information about viewpager this.
I went through the Android Developers class for Fragments, and I really like their explanation and implementation. However, rather than having a list on the left-hand side of the screen that displays content on the right-hand fragment when interacted with, I'd like to show a selection of tabs at the top of the screen.
Is there any sort of equivalent to the ListFragment class for tabs, or a way I can use the Android Developer implementation but to create a group of tabs in the ViewGroup?
Thanks!

Not really, as tabs are not usually implemented as a fragment.

For tabs, you can:
use the action bar, or
use PagerTabStrip with a ViewPager, or
use the tab flavor of ViewPagerIndicator with a ViewPager, or
go retro and use TabHost and TabWidget, or
roll something yourself
Is it possible to make tabs in ActionBar look like scrolling tabs, e.g.:
Because all I can get are fixed tabs like:
What you're trying to achieve are not scrolling tabs, but a ViewPager. You won't be able to get the look you want using only tabs.
Take a look at the good tutorial here on the ViewPager: http://android-developers.blogspot.co.uk/2011/08/horizontal-view-swiping-with-viewpager.html
The best way to implement this is to use Fragments, and the library ViewPageIndicator for the top list of pages.

Android News & Weather app lets you swipe to reveal another view, just like the iPhone. Can someone show me an example of how this is done?
It is not a ViewFlipper attached to a GestureDetector.
It is a custom view, you can see how it's done in Launcher by looking at Workspace.java in packages/apps/Launcher2 at android.git.kernel.org.
You can now do this out-of-the-box in the Android Compatibility library with a ViewPager: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/08/horizontal-view-swiping-with-viewpager.html?m=1
ViewPager slides between Fragments much the same way ListViews scroll up and down with views.
If you're not interested in scrolling the tabs, there's an example in the SDK that uses a TabHost (instead of making the tabs themselves scrollable left-to-right), but you need not use a TabHost. You could, if you wanted horizontally-scrolling tabs, use a HorizontalScrollView with some buttons in it.
For an approach that doesn't use the compatibility lib, or fragments, see here: https://github.com/olibye/AndroViews
