MainActivity java:

public class Main_Page extends AppCompatActivity {      private CollapsingToolbarLayout mCollapsingToolbarLayout;     private Toolbar toolbar;     private TabLayout tabLayout;     private ViewPager viewPager;      @Override     protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {         super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);         setContentView(R.layout.main__page);          mCollapsingToolbarLayout = (CollapsingToolbarLayout) findViewById(R.id.collapsing_toolbar_layout);         //mCollapsingToolbarLayout.setTitle(getResources().getString(R.string.app_name));          toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);         setSupportActionBar(toolbar);         //getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);          viewPager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.viewpager);         setupViewPager(viewPager);          tabLayout = (TabLayout) findViewById(R.id.tabs);         LinearLayout tabStrip = ((LinearLayout)tabLayout.getChildAt(0));         for(int i = 0; i < tabStrip.getChildCount(); i++) {             tabStrip.getChildAt(i).setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {                 @Override                 public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {                     return true;                 }             });         }         tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(viewPager);         setupTabIcons();     }      /**      * Adding custom view to tab      */     private void setupTabIcons() {          TextView tabOne = (TextView) LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.custom_tab, null);         tabOne.setText(R.string.free_fragment_title);         tabOne.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(0, R.drawable.ic_download_image, 0, 0);         tabLayout.getTabAt(0).setCustomView(tabOne);          TextView tabTwo = (TextView) LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.custom_tab, null);         tabTwo.setText(R.string.paid_fragment_title);         tabTwo.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(0, R.drawable.ic_paid_download_image, 0, 0);         tabLayout.getTabAt(1).setCustomView(tabTwo);          TextView tabThree = (TextView) LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.custom_tab, null);         tabThree.setText(R.string.pdf_fragment_title);         tabThree.setCompoundDrawablesWithIntrinsicBounds(0, R.drawable.ic_pdf_icon, 0, 0);         tabLayout.getTabAt(2).setCustomView(tabThree);     }      /**      * Adding fragments to ViewPager      * @param viewPager      */     private void setupViewPager(ViewPager viewPager) {         ViewPagerAdapter adapter = new ViewPagerAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager());         adapter.addFrag(new free_fragment(), "رایگان ها");         adapter.addFrag(new paid_fragment(), "پرداختی ها");         adapter.addFrag(new pdf_fragment(), "مقالات");         viewPager.setAdapter(adapter);     }      class ViewPagerAdapter extends FragmentPagerAdapter {         private final List<Fragment> mFragmentList = new ArrayList<>();         private final List<String> mFragmentTitleList = new ArrayList<>();          public ViewPagerAdapter(FragmentManager manager) {             super(manager);         }          @Override         public Fragment getItem(int position) {             return mFragmentList.get(position);         }          @Override         public int getCount() {             return mFragmentList.size();         }          public void addFrag(Fragment fragment, String title) {             mFragmentList.add(fragment);             mFragmentTitleList.add(title);         }          @Override         public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {             return mFragmentTitleList.get(position);         }     } } 

for disable click on TabLayout I use this code:

LinearLayout tabStrip = ((LinearLayout)tabLayout.getChildAt(0)); for(int i = 0; i < tabStrip.getChildCount(); i++) {     tabStrip.getChildAt(i).setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {         @Override         public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {             return true;         }     }); } 

How can I solve this problem? Thanks all <3

You are accessing tabs before setupWithViewPager, thats why your code is not working. So first set tabs then settouchlistener code.

Try this:

tabLayout.setupWithViewPager(viewPager);     setupTabIcons();  LinearLayout tabStrip = ((LinearLayout)mTabLayout.getChildAt(0));     for(int i = 0; i < tabStrip.getChildCount(); i++) {         tabStrip.getChildAt(i).setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {             @Override             public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {                 return true;             }         });     }
