RecyclerView inside NestedScrollView inside SwipeRefreshLayout doesn't scroll smoothly

Here's my layout.
<android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout
android:id="#+id/activity_main_swipe_refresh_layout"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_marginBottom="45dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true">
<Button
android:layout_width="300dp"
android:layout_height="100dp"
android:id="#+id/noob_button"
android:text="haha" />
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/recycler_view"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_below="#+id/noob_button"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:clipToPadding="false"
android:scrollbars="vertical" />
</RelativeLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
</android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout>
This is all inside RelativeLayout.
I have set recyclerview.setNestedScrol..(false);
It still hangs and if I set fixed height of the RecyclerView it doesn't hang. It scrolls but the scroll is not smooth.

You do not actually need a RecyclerView inside a NestedScrollView. As far as I have understood your question, you need a Button and a RecyclerView under the button. So you might consider adding the Button as the header of the RecyclerView which is neater implementation.
If you are thinking of adding a header in your RecyclerView please see my answer here on how this can be achieved.
I have explained how a footer can be added. The same rule applies for adding a header view as well. Please let me know if you have any further questions regarding this.

Multiple horizontal RecyclerView inside NestedScrollView steal focus

Actually I'm currently working for a AndroidTV app. I have multiple horizontal RecyclerView right to left inside a NestedScrollView like that image.
Problem is that when I scroll more towards left, then focus moves to different list or different view which is not good.
I don't want the focus to change. If the list reaches to the end, then focus should remain at same position.
I tried :
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants"
android:focusableInTouchMode="true" //in parent layout
But it didn't work..
Can anyone help me out ??
Not solved

Try changing your ScrollView to NestedScrollView. A reason behind this is
**NestedScrollView**
NestedScrollView is just like ScrollView, but it supports acting as
both a nested scrolling parent and child on both new and old versions
of Android. Nested scrolling is enabled by default.
**ScrollView**
Layout container for a view hierarchy that can be scrolled by the
user, allowing it to be larger than the physical display. A ScrollView
is a FrameLayout, meaning you should place one child in it containing
the entire contents to scroll; this child may itself be a layout
manager with a complex hierarchy of objects
This will help you to determine which layout is being focused.

You can use below structure for nested scroll
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/white"
android:clickable="false"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:id="#+id/scroll_search_all"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:isScrollContainer="false"
android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false" />
</LinearLayout>
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:isScrollContainer="false"
android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false" />
</LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>
</FrameLayout>
I hope this will help!

Try using this one code in your recycleview section 2:
android:layoutDirection="rtl"

How to use two recyclerView in single activity?

I want to implement two RecyclerView with different layout in single activity. The above RecyclerView should scroll vertical and the one below should scroll horizontal. But when I run the app, only either one RecyclerView is displayed. If first view is displayed then it works properly and scrolls vertical, while second RecyclerView is missing. And if second one is displayed then it scrolls vertical when it should do horizontal scroll and the first RecyclerView is missing.
Here is what i want. Source: Github,CardView-Recyclerview-Picasso
Here is my layout
<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="#color/colorBackgroundLight"
android:smoothScrollbar="true"
app:layout_behavior="#string/appbar_scrolling_view_behavior"
>
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/CategoriesRecyclerView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/videoRecyclerView"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_marginTop="130dp"
android:layout_below="#+id/CategoriesRecyclerView"/>
</RelativeLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView>

You may directly use the 2 Recycler Views without NestedScrollView.
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/CategoriesRecyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:id="#+id/videoRecyclerView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginTop="130dp"
android:layout_below="#+id/CategoriesRecyclerView"/>
</RelativeLayout>
And in your CategoriesRecyclerView whose height is wrap_content, use setAutoMeasureEnabled(true) on the Layout manager used for the recyler view.

If you want to scroll the horizontal scrollview full upside on page scroll then use scrollview otherwise you can do without scrollview. Also to achieve your layout just give the horizontal recyclerview fixed height and then you can see both recyclerview .

How to add extra space to RecyclerView with clipToPadding=false to prevent premature recycling

I have the following layout:
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:clipChildren="false"
android:clipToPadding="false">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_below="#+id/searchView"
android:clipChildren="false"
android:clipToPadding="false"
android:scrollbars="vertical"
app:layoutManager="android.support.v7.widget.LinearLayoutManager"/>
<SearchView
android:id="#+id/searchView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
</RelativeLayout>
which is a simple RecyclerView below a SearchView. I want the RecyclerView's views to scroll behind the SearchView, so clipChildren and clipToPadding are set to false.
My problem is that RecyclerView is (rightly) recycling its adapter's views when they are still visible, just because they are out of the RecyclerView's area. Is there a way to add an extra space to the RecyclerView within which views are not recycled?
EDIT, a gif showing the problem:

This method should help you setItemViewCacheSize(int size). It sets the number of offscreen views to retain before adding them to the potentially shared recycled view pool. More about it you can find here.

RecyclerView inside a ScrollView/NestedScrollView does not scroll properly

I have a layout which has a CardView and a FloatingActionButton associated with it. There is a list of replies below the CardView (which is a RecyclerView). Sometimes the CardViews' height is greater than the screen, so I have used layout_height="wrap_content" for the CardView and wrapped the whole LinearLayout inside a ScrollView.
However, this causes a problem(since it is a scrolling view inside a ScrollView) while scrolling the items of the RecyclerView. As suggested in some of the questions and answers posted, I have used both the NestedScrollView and the android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true" tag but the scrolling in the RecyclerView is still bad.
Here is my Layout file -

Here are some images -

When you have multiple scrolling Views in your layout (eg. RecyclerView + ScrollView) and when you scroll while in your recyclerView, the recyclerView scrolls with the parent Scrollview. this causes jitters in RecyclerView. You can avoid this jitter by the following.
You can add android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false"
to your RecyclerView in XML or recyclerView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
to your RecyclerView in Java.

If you want to support devices older than api 21 then you should use
ViewCompat.setNestedScrollingEnabled(mRecyclerView, false);
in your Activity/Fragment

You have to do multiple tasks:
put your recyclerview inside a android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView instead of normal ScrollView
set your recyclerview android:nestedScrollingEnabled="true" in layout XML file
to support devices older than API 21 then you should use ViewCompat.setNestedScrollingEnabled(mRecyclerView, false) in your code
set your RecyclerView height to android:layout_height="wrap_content" (or width if it is horizontal!)

Besides Setting the android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false" you need to make sure that the parent of the RecyclerView is a android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
I had troubles that the RecyclerView did not measure properly (on big screens) when it was in a standard ScrollView

if you want to scroll RecyclerView inside ScrollView and ScrollView prevents from scrolling RecyclerView (in API 16 this occurred) you should use android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
instead of ScrollView and also you must set
nestedScrollView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);
by this way you can prevent from scrolling nestedScrollView when you scroll RecyclerView.
hope this help some one

I have this problem ,solving it with :
custom ScrollView and override onInterceptTouchEvent to return false.
hope it's help someone/
