Add multiple images and text to each ViewPager slide

One way of doing this is hiding the first ViewPager and showing the second one.

From what you are saying it seems that you have the two view pagers in the same layout, something like this (I am giving a simplified version just to illustrate!):

main.xml

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" 
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" 
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity" > 

   <android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
   android:id="@+id/view_pager1"
   android:layout_width="match_parent"
   android:layout_height="match_parent" /> 


   <android.support.v4.view.ViewPager
   android:id="@+id/view_pager2"
   android:layout_width="match_parent"
   android:layout_height="match_parent" /> 

</RelativeLayout>

In your Activity you need to get a reference to these view pagers, which I assume you have already. And then in the OnClickListener of your button change the visibility of the view pagers:

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main); // This is the name of you layout file

    final ViewPager viewPager1 = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.view_pager1);
    final ViewPager viewPager2 = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.view_pager2);

    button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            viewPager1.setVisibility(View.GONE);
            viewPager2.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
        }
    });

    // ...
}
