Answer 1

Instead of ListView with other layouts inside ScrollView create one ListView with header and footer.

Add views that should be above ListView as a header:

addHeaderView(View v)

and that below as a footer:

addFooterView(View v)

Put everything what should be above ListView to header of ListView and the same with footer.

    LayoutInflater inflater = LayoutInflater.from(this);
    mTop    = inflater.inflate(R.layout.view_top, null);
    mBottom = inflater.inflate(R.layout.view_bottom, null);

    list.addHeaderView(mTop);
    list.addFooterView(mBottom);
    // add header and footer before setting adapter
    list.setAdapter(mAdapter);

In result you'll get one scrollable view.
