 TextView extViewDD =  
    (TextView)findViewById(R.id.textViewDirectoryDescription);

    textViewDD.setMovementMethod(new ScrollingMovementMethod());
//to stop parent linearlayout scrollview when touched on textview
    textViewDD.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
            v.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
            return false;
        }
    });
