Gridview scroll width

Question

I have this Gridview

<GridView
    android:id="@+id/gridview_example"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
    android:layout_marginLeft="45dp"
    android:layout_marginRight="45dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="35dp"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:layout_centerInParent="true"
    android:numColumns="3"
    android:horizontalSpacing="10dp"
    android:verticalSpacing="10dp"
    android:fadeScrollbars="false"
    android:scrollbarStyle="outsideInset"
    android:scrollbarSize="30dp"
    android:smoothScrollbar="true">
</GridView>

for which I'm trying to increase the scroll width. I've tried using scrollbarSize but nothing changes. Is there a way to increase the width of the scrollbar without customizing it?

I'm new in Android development so please be gentle :)

Update: Tested this possible solution and added my gridview inside the scrollview

<ScrollView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
    android:layout_marginLeft="45dp"
    android:layout_marginRight="45dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="35dp"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:layout_centerInParent="true"
    android:layout_above="@+id/bottomMenu"
    android:scrollbarSize="50dip">
    <GridView
        android:id="@+id/gridview_holes"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:numColumns="3"
        android:horizontalSpacing="10dp"
        android:verticalSpacing="10dp">
    </GridView>
</ScrollView>

But the gridview is much more smaller and I'm seeing just the gridview thin scroll.

Tested that answer and for me it's not working. That's why I posted this question. I've added the scrollview and inside my gridview but the gridview it's much more smaller :( — LAffair, Nov 14 '17 at 12:37
