I have encountered problems using some example where the cell size of ListView is great. So I have found a solution to my problem which detects the slightest movement of your finger . I've simplified to the minimum possible and is as follows:

private int oldScrolly;


@Override
public void onScrollStateChanged(AbsListView view, int scrollState) {

}

@Override
public void onScroll(AbsListView view, int firstVisibleItem, int    visibleItemCount, int totalItemCount) {

            View view = absListView.getChildAt(0);
            int scrolly = (view == null) ? 0 : -view.getTop() + absListView.getFirstVisiblePosition() * view.getHeight();
            int margin = 10;

            Log.e(TAG, "Scroll y: " + scrolly + " - Item: " + firstVisibleItem);


            if (scrolly > oldScrolly + margin) {
                Log.d(TAG, "SCROLL_UP");
                oldScrolly = scrolly;
            } else if (scrolly < oldScrolly - margin) {
                Log.d(TAG, "SCROLL_DOWN");
                oldScrolly = scrolly;
            }
        }
    });

PD: I use the MARGIN to not detect the scroll until you meet that margin . This avoids problems when I show or hide views and avoid blinking of them.

Just set scroll listener to your listview   If you have a header or footer you should check the visible count too  If it increases it means you are scrolling down   Reverse it if there is a footer instead of header   If you don t have any header or footer in your listview you can remove the lines which cheks the visible item count   listView setOnScrollListener new AbsListView OnScrollListener             public void onScroll AbsListView view  int firstVisibleItem  int visibleItemCount  int totalItemCount                if  mLastFirstVisibleItem  gt  firstVisibleItem                    Log e getClass   toString     scrolling up                  else if  mLastFirstVisibleItem  lt  firstVisibleItem                    Log e getClass   toString     scrolling down                  else if  mLastVisibleItemCount  lt  visibleItemCount                    Log e getClass   toString     scrolling down                  else if  mLastVisibleItemCount  gt  visibleItemCount                    Log e getClass   toString     scrolling up                              mLastFirstVisibleItem   firstVisibleItem              mLastVisibleItemCount   visibleItemCount                     public void onScrollStateChanged AbsListView listView  int scrollState                        and have this variables  int mLastFirstVisibleItem  int mLastVisibleItemCount

Trick about detect scroll up or down in listview  you just call this function on onScroll function in OnScrollListener of ListView   private int oldFirstVisibleItem   -1      private protected int oldTop   -1         you can change this value  pixel      private static final int MAX SCROLL DIFF   5       private void calculateListScroll AbsListView view  int firstVisibleItem  int visibleItemCount  int totalItemCount            if  firstVisibleItem    oldFirstVisibleItem                int top   view getChildAt 0  getTop                   range between new top and old top must greater than MAX SCROLL DIFF             if  top  gt  oldTop  amp  amp  Math abs top - oldTop   gt  MAX SCROLL DIFF                       scroll up               else if  top  lt  oldTop  amp  amp  Math abs top - oldTop   gt  MAX SCROLL DIFF                       scroll down                           oldTop   top            else               View child   view getChildAt 0               if  child    null                    oldFirstVisibleItem   firstVisibleItem                  oldTop   child getTop

To also detect scrolling with larger elements  I prefere an onTouch Listener   listview setOnTouchListener new View OnTouchListener              int scrollEventListSize   5           float lastY             Used to correct for occasions when user scrolls down  up  but the onTouchListener detects it incorrectly  We will store detected up- down-scrolls with -1 1 in this list and evaluate later which occured more often         List lt Integer gt  downScrolledEventsHappened            Override         public boolean onTouch View v  MotionEvent event                 float diff   0              if event getAction      event ACTION DOWN                   lastY   event getY                    downScrolledEventsHappened   new LinkedList lt Integer gt                               else if event getAction      event ACTION MOVE                   diff   event getY   - lastY                  lastY   event getY                     if diff gt 0                      downScrolledEventsHappened add 1                   else                      downScrolledEventsHappened add -1                     List needs to be filled with some events  will happen very quickly                 if downScrolledEventsHappened size      scrollEventListSize 1                       downScrolledEventsHappened remove 0                       int res 0                      for int i 0  i lt downScrolledEventsHappened size    i                             res  downScrolledEventsHappened get i                                              if  res  gt  0                           Log i  INFO    Scrolled up                        else                          Log i  INFO    Scrolled down                                                return false     don t interrupt the event-chain

My solution works perfectly giving the exact value for each scroll direction  distanceFromFirstCellToTop contains the exact distance from the first cell to the top of the parent View  I save this value in previousDistanceFromFirstCellToTop and as I scroll I compare it with the new value  If it s lower then I scrolled up  else  I scrolled down   private int previousDistanceFromFirstCellToTop   listview setOnScrollListener new OnScrollListener           Override     public void onScrollStateChanged AbsListView view  int scrollState                 Override     public void onScroll AbsListView view  int firstVisibleItem  int visibleItemCount  int totalItemCount            View firstCell   listview getChildAt 0           int distanceFromFirstCellToTop   listview getFirstVisiblePosition     firstCell getHeight   - firstCell getTop             if distanceFromFirstCellToTop  lt  previousDistanceFromFirstCellToTop                         Scroll Up                   else if distanceFromFirstCellToTop   gt  previousDistanceFromFirstCellToTop                         Scroll Down                   previousDistanceFromFirstCellToTop   distanceFromFirstCellToTop              For Xamarin developers  the solution is the following   Note  don t forget to run on UI thread  listView Scroll     o  e    gt        View firstCell   listView GetChildAt 0       int distanceFromFirstCellToTop   listView FirstVisiblePosition   firstCell Height - firstCell Top       if  distanceFromFirstCellToTop  lt  previousDistanceFromFirstCellToTop                  Scroll Up           else if  distanceFromFirstCellToTop  gt  previousDistanceFromFirstCellToTop                  Scroll Down           previousDistanceFromFirstCellToTop   distanceFromFirstCellToTop

Store the firstVisibleItem and on the next onScroll check if the new firstVisibleItem is smaller or greater than the previous one   Example pseudocode  not tested    int lastVisibleItem   0  boolean isScrollingDown   false   void onScroll AbsListView view  int firstVisibleItem  int visibleItemCount  int totalItemCount        if  firstVisibleItem  gt  lastVisibleItem            isScrollingDown   true            else           isScrollingDown   false            lastVisibleItem   firstVisibleItem

For some reason the Android doc doesnt cover this  and the method used isnt even in the docs    took me a while to find it   To detect if your scroll is at the top you would use this   public boolean checkAtTop          if listView getChildCount      0  return true      return listView getChildAt 0  getTop      0      This will check if your scroller is at the top  Now  in order to do it for the bottom  you would have to pass it the number of children that you have  and check against that number  You might have to figure out how many are on the screen at one time  and subtract that from your number of children  I ve never had to do that  Hope this helps

Those methods cannot be used to detect scrolling directions directly  There are many ways of getting the direction  A simple code untested  for one such method is explained below      public class ScrollTrackingListView extends ListView        private boolean readyForMeasurement   false      private Boolean isScrollable   null      private float prevDistanceToEnd   -1 0      private ScrollDirectionListener listener   null       public ScrollTrackingListView Context context            super context           init               public ScrollTrackingListView Context context  AttributeSet attrs            super context  attrs           init               public ScrollTrackingListView Context context  AttributeSet attrs  int defStyle            super context  attrs  defStyle           init               private void init             ViewTreeObserver observer   getViewTreeObserver            observer addOnGlobalLayoutListener globalLayoutListener           setOnScrollListener scrollListener              private ViewTreeObserver OnGlobalLayoutListener globalLayoutListener               new ViewTreeObserver OnGlobalLayoutListener               Override         public void onGlobalLayout                 readyForMeasurement   true              calculateDistanceToEnd                           public void registerScrollDirectionListener ScrollDirectionListener listener            scrollDirectionListener   listener             public void unregisterScrollDirectionListener             scrollDirectionListener   null             private OnScrollListener scrollListener               new OnScrollListener               Override         public void onScrollStateChanged AbsListView absListView  int i                calculateDistanceToEnd                        Override         public void onScroll AbsListView absListView  int i  int i1  int i2                   Do nothing                        private void calculateDistanceToEnd              if  readyForMeasurement                    I m using the height of the layout  horizontal scrollbar and                content along with scroll down offset                 computeVerticalScrollExtent is used to compute the length of the thumb within the scrollbar s track                 The length of the thumb is a function of the view height and the content length              int verticalScrollExtent   computeVerticalScrollExtent                int verticalScrollOffset   computeVerticalScrollOffset                int verticalScrollRange   computeVerticalScrollRange                int horizontalScrollBarHeight   getHorizontalScrollbarHeight                                    1  Let  R  represent the range of the vertical scrollbar  This corresponds to the length of the content                in the view                 2  Let  E  represent the extent of the vertical scrollbar  The extent is a constant value and is                 probably  equal to a value proportional to the height of the view                 3  Offset  o  represents the current position in the range that is visible to the user  It can take                values from  0 to E                                 Now the DistanceToEnd is calculated using these three values as follows                                 DistanceToEnd    R -

mInitialY     yDiff less than 0 0 implies scrolling down while yDiff greater than 0 0 implies scrolling up  If I try to add the less than or greater than symbols  the preview refuses to display it                  if yDiff less than 0 0  listener onScrollingDown                    else if yDiff greater than 0 0  listener onScrollingUp                    break                    return super onInterceptTouchEvent event

With all the method posted  there are problems recognizing when the user is scrolling up from the first element or down from the last   Here is another approach to detect scroll up down           listView setOnTouchListener new View OnTouchListener                 float height               Override             public boolean onTouch View v  MotionEvent event                    int action   event getAction                    float height   event getY                    if action    MotionEvent ACTION DOWN                       this height   height                   else if action    MotionEvent ACTION UP                       if this height  lt  height                           Log v TAG   Scrolled up                         else if this height  gt  height                           Log v TAG   Scrolled down                                                            return false

Here s what I would try first   1  Create an interface  let s call it OnScrollTopOrBottomListener  with these methods   void onScrollTop     void onScrollBottom     2  In your list s adapter  add a member instance  typed as the interface you created and supply a setter and getter   3  In the getView   implementation of your adapter  check if the position parameter is either 0 or getCount   - 1   Also check that your OnScrollTopOrBottomListener instance is not null   4  If the position is 0  call onScrollTopOrBottomListener onScrollTop    If position is getCount   - 1  call onScrollTopOrBottomListener onScrollBottom     5  In your OnScrollTopOrBottomListener implementation  call the appropriate methods to get the desired data   Hope that helps in some way   -Brandon

I ve used this much simpler solution    setOnScrollListener  new OnScrollListener           private int mInitialScroll   0        Override     public void onScroll AbsListView view  int firstVisibleItem              int visibleItemCount  int totalItemCount                 int scrolledOffset   computeVerticalScrollOffset             boolean scrollUp   scrolledOffset  gt  mInitialScroll          mInitialScroll   scrolledOffset               Override     public void onScrollStateChanged AbsListView view  int scrollState
