Is possible to do a vertical scroller animation in Android without using javascript? Anybody knows a tutorial o a web page with a helpful code? thanks
I'm not sure of what you mean by vertical animation but I think this tutorial can help you.
Animations of views are based on Interpolators that you can set, and one of them is the LinearInterpolator which is detailed here.
EDIT, further to the comments below:
This is something you can do with the scrolling and animation features of the View class, as described here (ctrl-f "Scrolling" and "Animation" in that page).
Should the API level you are using be too low, this is also something you can do with a Thread that modified the position of the TextView embedded in your layout or that uses the scrollXX() functions. This is also described in the page linked above.
Have you looked at the viewflipper control.
I've tried this in the past and it works well. You can also use ViewAnimator class
UPDATE
The google documentation is a bit hard to chew through. You may wish to try this simple tutorial first.

What is the easiest way to implement a screen slide in Nativescript like shown in Android Viewpager , but in a vertical direction ? Another example of this functionality would be the rss reader feedly where you can change rss feeds by swiping up/down.
The page should allow vertical scrolling to the top/bottom and then transition after a certain treshold.
I already encountered nativescript-slides, which can only do horizontally sliding.
So is there a "nativescript" way or do i have to implement it as native android/ios feature (for example by this) ? In either case a sample on how to integrate it in nativescript would be great.
Update
Recorded an example:
taken from this Repo with Android native code. The outstanding PR made changes to offer vertical scrolling in the list. But the repo seems to be outdated and a bit buggy.
I can provide more info later but there's a new plugin implementing the native controls for android and iOS for slides/carousel her https://github.com/alexrainman/nativescript-carousel-view and vertical swiping is on his radar, I think he might even be close to completing that.
To give an answer for anybody interested in above nested scrolling animation:
For Android I had to implement the native ReyclerView in Nativescript in favor of the NS buildin ListView. It is an optimized view structure which among other things allows nested (vertical) scrolling and can be used as replacement for an ordinary list.
Together with https://github.com/alexrainman/nativescript-carousel-view works like a charm!
Anyone that ends up here still looking for ways to achieve this.
I spent a lot of time trying to figure out a way to achieve this and tried to find ready plugins for this. Also tried to use the plugin from Alexrainman but eventually gave up since the plugin was not up to date with the current nativescript-version.
My solution:
I used radListView as a basis for this implementation and leveraged the methods and events on the radListView.
By using scrolled-event I gathered data for the use of the scrolling feature: scroll Speed and scroll direction. (These might be also taken from the event data, but since I did not find the event details from the Nativescript-documentation I gave up trying to guess where to find this data on the event-model).
Then I also saved the fixed height of one item on my list (The height I fixed to screenHeight-200).
With all this info, I managed to hook the event "ScrollDragEnded" and add logic that makes my list behave like a vertical slider. Moving on the list by method "scrollToIndex" and figuring out which index to scroll and when by leveraging all the data mentioned above.
This is the way I managed to make a pretty good vertical slide.
Good luck!
I would like to develop an application, which has a part, when I have to print a long text on the screen. My question is: What layout or view or ? are you recommend for Me, if I want to make paging effect? Some text could reserve more pages, and I would like to scroll between these pages with an effect like e-book readers does it. What shall I prefer? Webview? TextView with modifications? Canvas? Or What?
Please give me tips. (I just need some direction to where shall I start now)
Thanks in advance!
I think you're refering to the ViewPager :
http://developer.android.com/training/animation/screen-slide.html
If so, I recommend you to follow this training and come back on StackOverFlow if you have a problem, with some code, or something you've tried and hasn't worked.
While going through a IOS app in my company, I saw the buttons set in a horizontal scroll view in a animated manner which looked really good. When asked the IOS developers they said it is a pre built in function available in xcode. I want to know whether it can be achieved in Android.
Details regarding the scroll view.
There are buttons when scrolled over revolves around. To be more precise it moves in the anti-clockwise direction but doesn't disappear from view.
Thanks in advance for the help.
May be this is what you want or it may help you

If my understanding is correct about your question, We have HorizontalScrollView to achieve that in android. You have to do your own animation while scroll. There is no in build animations while scrolling.
Please go through the following link.
I'd like to make a view in my Android app that flips between multiple views on a swipe/fling. I'd like it to behave more or less like the Android Launcher behaves when flipping between views. In particular,
It should flip views on swipe.
Generally a swipe will flip between one view and the next. It should not fling across all of the views.
If you swipe slowly, you should see the views dragging as you're swiping, eg. the way the Launcher does it.
I tried using a ViewFlipper with a GestureOverlayView as per Romain Guy's blog post here, but there's no indicator to the user as they're swiping. This makes discoverability difficult, which is presumably why Launcher does it the way they do.
I tried using a Gallery object, but when I swipe from left to right, there's a certain amount of momentum that flings the users through all the views rather than just taking them to the next view.
Is there a good way to accomplish what I'm trying to do?
I know this is an old question but ViewPager is created for this exact same purpose. ViewPager is part of android compatibility package and more can be found at http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/08/horizontal-view-swiping-with-viewpager.html
Take a look at HorizontalPager. It's actually based on RealViewSwitcher, which in turn is based on the Android homescreen's code, and supports snap-to paging with drag feedback, as well as nested vertically-scrolling subviews. Gesture support for fast swipes isn't all it should be, but this may get you part of the way there (and I'd welcome contributions back).
EDIT: As of 2012 you're much better off using Google's ViewPager - it's in the compat library.
Check out SwipeView within this project https://github.com/fry15/uk.co.jasonfry.android.tools It does exactly what you want it to do and is super simple to implement.
#CommonsGuy extended ViewFlipper to do it.

Ihaven't used this one yet so im not sure if it moves with your finger like the launcher if not your going to have to make an OnTochListener to do it for you in me.ACTION_MOVE you will update the view to change its position. I'll post some sample code when I get home if you don't get another answer.
My goal is to create a screen similar in function to the Stream page in the Google+ app (picture below for those unfamiliar). For the paging, I am using a custom ViewGroup so that it has smooth transitions that "follow your finger" rather than just snapping to the destination after the fling gesture has been made.
Question
Currently, I am going the route of using some TranslateAnimations to move the headings ("Nearby," "All circles," and "Incoming" in the screenshot) once a new page has been selected. This creates a couple of problems: the center heading doesn't follow the user's finger (as you can see the "All circles" heading does in the screenshot), and if the user begins on a page other than the middle one, I have not found an easy way to offset all of the animations temporarily without running them first since the animations do not move the actual views.
Am I going about this the correct way, or is there a much simpler way of accomplishing this that I am overlooking?
Thanks
After hours of searching and a little luck with search terms, I came across A Google+ like ViewPager page indicator.
I also came across Android ViewPager Indicator, created by the same developer who wrote ActionBarSherlock. Has a ton of examples, and is pretty easy to integrate with the FragmentPagerAdapter.
Google has published his own solution in support library.
Check:
PagerTitleStrip,
PagerTabStrip
Have just used ViewPagerIndicator solution and its very nice and smooth. You can demo the effect by looking at the demo from the Android Market here
I am not 100% sure, but I think it uses the new ViewPager.
Maybe you should look at the API 4+ Support Demos:
FragmentStatePagerSupport.java
FragmentPagerSupport.java
