Answer 1

Short hint to @albertvilacalvo answer: If you use RecyclerView programmatically, you may handle setFocusableInTouchMode that way (include in your RecyclerView class)

@Override
protected void onAttachedToWindow() {
   ((View) getParent()).setFocusableInTouchMode(true);
   super.onAttachedToWindow();
}

The descendantFocusability solution fails if you need EditText in your child views, they would not get cursor anymore. I'm using ListView, custom (multi)touch and EditText in my RecyclerView childs. No sideeffects using setFocusableInTouchMode so far.
