Answer 1

I guess the

android:fillViewport="true"

is wrong.

The Dev describe the fillViewport as follows:

Defines whether the scrollview should stretch its content to fill the viewport. 

Try to delete it and test it. I have several scroolviews working like this:

<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    >...

Answer 2

<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   android:layout_width="fill_parent"
   android_layout_height="fill_parent"
<LinearLayout>
   android:layout_width="fill_parent"
   android_layout_height="fill_parent"

Answer 3

i had no choice but to write the layout again , this time i added RelativeLayout as child view of the scrollView. it works.
