Answer 1

Similar situation (but not using a ViewPager), putting this in the view that needed the touch event worked for me. Add checks for MotionEvents other than ACTION_MOVE if applicable to your use case.

@Override
public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
    if (event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE) {
        this.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
        return true;
    } else {
        return super.onTouchEvent(event);
    }
}
