I have 2 list views in a fragment stacked vertically. The top list has a fixed number of rows(it doesn't change). The second list is populated dynamically. My question is I want the first list to always be visible and the second to be able to scroll if it has many rows. I should say when the second list is scrolling, it SHOULD NOT scroll the first. It should only scroll its contents.

Did you try adding a `ScrollView` container around your second list? – not_again_stackoverflow Aug 03 '16 at 10:24

@not_again_stackoverflow ListView doesn't work inside a ScrollView. WRAP_CONTENT shows only first item, don't do that. – Eugen Pechanec Aug 03 '16 at 10:59

Apply this to the list view you don't want to scroll:
listView.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() {
public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
// If the user wants to scroll, override the default event
if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE) {
return true; // So the system doesn't handle the event
}
return false;
}
});
The second list view should still be able to scroll.

The second list view isn't scrolling. And also the first list view(the one that should not scroll) is behaving weird, it is selecting list items(rows) that haven't been selected, if I attempt to scroll across it, it interprets that as list item selection. – fuadj Aug 03 '16 at 12:55

Maybe it would be easier for you to replace the first list view with a linear layout, since it should not scroll – Simon Schiller Aug 03 '16 at 13:00

Yes, I think that is the proper method. But there are many rows in the first list(5 rows) that would be easier to populate by a list adapter than to manually create them in a vertical linear layout – fuadj Aug 03 '16 at 13:01

Add the first list contents in some other layout (not ScrollView,ListView) ex.LinearLayout, So you can have only one scrollable list item that is the second one
