Because the link from Klemens Zleptnig is broken, here is a complete example. This fix helps with the scroll of a TabLayout too btw. I excluded the area around the big numbers in the top of the TimePicker because they don't need the scroll event anyway.

java:

public class MyTimePicker extends TimePicker {
    public MyTimePicker(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    //This is the important constructor
    public MyTimePicker(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public MyTimePicker(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
    }

    public MyTimePicker(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr, int defStyleRes) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr, defStyleRes);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev)
    {
        if (ev.getActionMasked() == MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
        //Excluding the top of the view
            if(ev.getY() < getHeight()/3.3F)
                return false;

            ViewParent p = getParent();
            if (p != null)
                p.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
        }

        return false;
    }
}
