I have been working on a app, but stuck in a xml layout issue, the scrollview I usually use is not working when I am using the Card views inside a linear layout, I looked up in google and found out about NestedScrollview, it still wont work, app force closes, could some one tell me what exactly am I doing wrong, and correct. It will be very helpful.

Put LinearLayout after NestedScrollView like below if you don't want to try RecyclerView:

<android.support.v4.widget.NestedScrollView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">

        <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent">

            <android.support.v7.widget.CardView
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
            <android.support.v7.widget.CardView
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
        </LinearLayout>
