how to disable recycler view scrolling so that it listens to Scrollview layout?

Logically, it is not a good idea to put ListView inside a ScrollView. However, if you insist then:

You may either increase the ListView height based on the sum of its rows height as mentioned here.
Or let the recycling in place but intercept the touch on ListView to redirect scrolling to its parent ScrollView as mentioned here.

This should solve your RecyclerView nested scrolling.

 mRecyclerView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(false);

RecyvlerView implements NestedScrollingChild

for instance if RecyclerView parent is a ScrollView or ListView or RecyclerView or any AbsListView

disable scrolling for the child RecyclerView.

Add this line in xml,

android:nestedScrollingEnabled="false"
