ScrollView disable focus move

I have had such a problem too. The only way that helped me is to extend scroll view and to override neigher

@Override
public ArrayList<View> getFocusables(int direction) {
    return new ArrayList<View>();
}

or

@Override
protected boolean onRequestFocusInDescendants(int direction, Rect previouslyFocusedRect) {
    return true;
}

but to override ViewGroup.requestChildFocus(View child, View focused) method as following:

    @Override
    public void requestChildFocus(View child, View focused) {
        // avoid scrolling to focused view
        // super.requestChildFocus(child, focused);
    }

Just thought I'd share my solution to this. Even though some of the other answer's comments state that you cannot override this behavior, that is not true. This behavior stops as soon as you override the onRequestFocusInDescendants() method. So simply create your ScrollView extension to do this:

public class NonFocusingScrollView extends ScrollView {

  public NonFocusingScrollView(Context context) {
    super(context);
  }

  public NonFocusingScrollView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
  }

  public NonFocusingScrollView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
    super(context, attrs, defStyle);
  }

  @Override
  protected boolean onRequestFocusInDescendants(int direction, Rect previouslyFocusedRect) {
    return true;
  }

}

And you're done. The ScrollView will mess with your focus no more.
