Disable touch events for ScrollView inside ViewPager in Android

I have ScrollViews as pages for ViewPager. I would like to disable touch events for that ViewPager completely. When I override onTouchEvent on my ViewPager class I only manage to prevent the horizontal scrolling but not the scrolling of the child ScrollViews.

How can I disable touch events entirely for ViewPager and all ScrollViews within it?

This is only a proof of concept for me. The next step is to prevent scrolling only for some part of that ViewPager.

Overwrite the onInterceptTouchEvent of your scrollview to either consume or ignore the event:

"Return true to steal motion events from the children and have them dispatched to this ViewGroup through onTouchEvent(). The current target will receive an ACTION_CANCEL event, and no further messages will be delivered here."

public class InterceptScrollView extends ScrollView {

public InterceptScrollView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
    super(context, attrs);
}

@Override
public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent ev) {
    return false;
}

}
