Wrap the GridView in HorizontalScrollView.

No, wrapping will kill GridView virtualization (loading elements only when they are visible). Better make your own GridView implementation with horizontal scrolling. – Triang3l Jul 08 '13 at 09:31

I think GridView doesn't support horizontal scrolling.

We have to create the grid view functionality with horizontal scroll. See this link about Grid View with horizontal scroll. It may help you.
