Scrollview height is the maximum height within which all listview contents should have to display with scrollable thats height is mentioned. — Revathi, Nov 14 '11 at 11:11

A ListView will scroll itself inside its bounds if it needs to. If you haven't anything else inside the ScrollView, it is unneeded.

If you have more stuff not shown in your posted layout, the user will have to do a scroll gesture on something that is contained in the ScrollView that isn't the ListView, otherwise the ListView will consume the scroll gesture and it won't get passed to the ScrollView.

You can override this behaviour if you really want, but you may not need to if you only have the ListView.

Can you give me the log?

Also try using layout_height and width only with fill_parent or wrap_content and use the max_width and height.

The problem is that you're using a ListView inside of a ScrollView. The ScrollView has the size of the screen and it handles the scrolling events so your list view never receives any scroll events
