Recycler View Inside Recycler View not Scrolling

Question

There is a Recycler View inside the other Recycler View.Both needs to scroll vertically. Outer Recycler view is scrolling properly but inner recycler view is not.

Here is the code:

LinearLayoutManager mLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(ViewActivity.this);
outerRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLayoutManager);
ViewAdapter adapter = new ViewAdapter(ViewActivity.this);
outerRecyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);

ViewAdapter is as follows:

public void onBindViewHolder(ViewAdapter.ViewViewHolder holder, int position)
{
  //RECYCLER VIEW
  //TODO: Inner Recycler view scroll movement
  LinearLayoutManager mLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(context);
  holder.protocolRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLayoutManager);
  ViewProtocolAdapter adapter = new ViewProtocolAdapter(context);
  holder.protocolRecyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
}

I have tried the following on both recycler views but could not solve the problem

recyclerView.addOnItemTouchListener(new RecyclerView.OnItemTouchListener() {
       @Override
       public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(RecyclerView rv, MotionEvent e) {
           if(rv.getChildCount() > 0) {
               View childView = rv.findChildViewUnder(e.getX(), e.getY());
               if(childView ==listView) {
                   int action = e.getAction();
                   switch (action) {
                       case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
                           rv.requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
                   }
               }
           }

           return false;
       }

       @Override
       public void onTouchEvent(RecyclerView rv, MotionEvent e) {

       }

       @Override
       public void onRequestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(boolean disallowIntercept) {

       }
   });

Also tried this one:

outerRecyclerView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(true);//Does not make any difference
innerRecyclerView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(true);//Recycler View start scrolling but very slowly and sometimes scrolls the outer one.

Apply this below ontouch listener to inner recycler which is may be in adapter of parent recycler.

RecyclerView.OnItemTouchListener mScrollTouchListener = new RecyclerView.OnItemTouchListener() {
@Override
public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(RecyclerView rv, MotionEvent e) {
    int action = e.getAction();
    switch (action) {
        case MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE:
            rv.getParent().requestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(true);
            break;
    }
    return false;
}

@Override
public void onTouchEvent(RecyclerView rv, MotionEvent e) {

}

@Override
public void onRequestDisallowInterceptTouchEvent(boolean disallowIntercept) {

}
}; 

innerrecyclerView.addOnItemTouchListener(mScrollTouchListener);
