The horiontal gridview can be achieved by Recycler view.

For adding the heading, put a textview and the recycler view in a linear layout (with vertical orientation of course), something like this :

<LinearLayout orientation="vertical" ..... >
    <Textview ...... />
    <RecyclerView .... />
</LinearLayout>

And for achiving the horizontal view in recycler view, set the layoutmanager in java as :

recyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this, LinearLayoutManager.HORIZONTAL, false));

Note that, wrap_content is not yet supported by RecyclerView. To overcome that, you'd have to either

1) set minHeight/minWidth attribute.

2) use a custom layout manager

Hey for example, if the before an RecyclerView is bigger, i can use the ScrollView without error "scrollview can host only one direct child" – Helio Soares Junior Feb 22 '16 at 22:37

@HelioSoaresJunior : I didn't get your question. Can you rephrase it more clearly? – Yash Feb 23 '16 at 05:18
For example, if I have more views below of RecyclerView, it will create the scroll automatically? (Views off the list) – Helio Soares Junior Feb 23 '16 at 20:29

No, it won't. If your content needs scrolling, you should place everything above inside a scrollview tag. – Yash Feb 24 '16 at 05:15
thanks, i will try, when I used the listview I can not use another scroll – Helio Soares Junior Feb 24 '16 at 18:44
