RecyclerView inside ScrollView is not working

I'm trying to implement a layout which contains RecyclerView and ScrollView at the same layout.

Layout template:

<RelativeLayout>
    <ScrollView android:id="@+id/myScrollView">

       <unrelated data>...</unrealated data>

       <android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:id="@+id/my_recycler_view" />
    </ScrollView>   
</RelativeLayout>

Problems: I can scroll until the last element of ScrollView.

Things I tried:

1. Card view inside the ScrollView (now ScrollView contains RecyclerView) - can see the card up until the RecyclerView.
2. Initial thought was to implement this ViewGroup using RecyclerView instead of ScrollView where one of it's views type is the CardView, but I got the exact same results as with the ScrollView.

use NestedScrollView instead of ScrollView

Please go through NestedScrollView reference document for more information.

and add recyclerView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false); to your RecyclerView
