More solutions can be found here: Android list view inside a scroll view

This is a common issue that a lot of developer face. The issue is you are stacking a scrollable view inside another scrollable view. One solution to remove the listview from the scrollview.

Another is the following code:

public static void setListViewHeightBasedOnChildren(ListView listView) {
ListAdapter listAdapter = listView.getAdapter(); 
if (listAdapter == null) {
    // pre-condition
    return;
}

int totalHeight = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < listAdapter.getCount(); i++) {
    View listItem = listAdapter.getView(i, null, listView);
    listItem.measure(0, 0);
    totalHeight += listItem.getMeasuredHeight();
}

ViewGroup.LayoutParams params = listView.getLayoutParams();
params.height = totalHeight + (listView.getDividerHeight() * (listAdapter.getCount() - 1));
listView.setLayoutParams(params);
listView.requestLayout();

}
