you cant put recyclerview or listview in scrollview. again scrollview only takes one direct child. — Zahan Safallwa, Mar 01 '16 at 10:48
to use recyclerview inside scrollview you have to create your own layout manager check this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32420770/use-recyclerview-inside-scrollview-with-flexible-recycler-item-height — H Raval, Mar 01 '16 at 10:49

You can't put ListView/RecycleView inside ScrollView. When ListView and RecycleView trying to calculate their height, they are using parent height. ScrollView doesn't have a speciefed height, so it gives an error.
