My Solution is use NestedScrollView Scroll element:

    final Rect scrollBounds = new Rect();
    scroller.getHitRect(scrollBounds);

    scroller.setOnScrollChangeListener(new NestedScrollView.OnScrollChangeListener() {
        @Override
        public void onScrollChange(NestedScrollView v, int scrollX, int scrollY, int oldScrollX, int oldScrollY) {

            if (myBtn1 != null) {

                if (myBtn1.getLocalVisibleRect(scrollBounds)) {
                    if (!myBtn1.getLocalVisibleRect(scrollBounds)
                            || scrollBounds.height() < myBtn1.getHeight()) {
                        Log.i(TAG, "BTN APPEAR PARCIALY");
                    } else {
                        Log.i(TAG, "BTN APPEAR FULLY!!!");
                    }
                } else {
                    Log.i(TAG, "No");
                }
            }

        }
    });
}

Using @Qberticus answer which was to the point but great btw, I compined a bunch of codes to check if whenever a scrollview is called and got scrolled it trigger the @Qberticus answer and you can do whatever you want, in my case I have a social network containing videos so when the view is drawed on the screen I play the video same idea like facebook and Instagram. Here's the code:

mainscrollview.getViewTreeObserver().addOnScrollChangedListener(new OnScrollChangedListener() {

                    @Override
                    public void onScrollChanged() {
                        //mainscrollview is my scrollview that have inside it a linearlayout containing many child views.
                        Rect bounds = new Rect();
                         for(int xx=1;xx<=postslayoutindex;xx++)
                         {

                          //postslayoutindex is the index of how many posts are read.
                          //postslayoutchild is the main layout for the posts.
                        if(postslayoutchild[xx]!=null){

                            postslayoutchild[xx].getHitRect(bounds);

                        Rect scrollBounds = new Rect();
                        mainscrollview.getDrawingRect(scrollBounds);

                        if(Rect.intersects(scrollBounds, bounds))
                        {
                            vidPreview[xx].startPlaywithoutstoppping();
                         //I made my own custom video player using textureview and initialized it globally in the class as an array so I can access it from anywhere.
                        }
                        else
                        {

                        }


                        }
                    }
                    }
                });
