If you need to detect scroll on only viewflipper which is not occupying entire screen, then try the below

gestureDetector = new GestureDetector(new MyGestureDetector());

viewFlipper.setOnTouchListener(new View.OnTouchListener() {

        @Override
        public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
            if (gestureDetector.onTouchEvent(event)) {
                return false;
            }
            return true;
        }
  });

and MyGestureDetector will be same as in http://www.codeshogun.com/blog/2009/04/16/how-to-implement-swipe-action-in-android/
