It depends on what fading you are speaking of and the Android version.
There are two fadings:
- a permanent fading on the edges which remain when the scroll position is not at the beginning or at the end.
- a dynamic fading which appears when you reach either the beginning or the end.
The permanent fading is removed with
r.RunMethod2("setHorizontalFadingEdgeEnabled", False, "java.lang.boolean")
or
r.RunMethod2("setVertivalFadingEdgeEnabled", False, "java.lang.boolean")
but the dynamic fading remains.
To remove both fadings, as reported by barx, use .
r.RunMethod2("setOverScrollMode", 2, "java.lang.int")
On my device with Android 2.3.3 the permanent fading is True by default.
On my device with Android 4.2.2 the permanent fading is False by default.
Attached a small test program.
In the picture you see on the top permanent fading is True and on the bottom permanent fading is False.
