Android does not use scrollbars for more than a momentary display of position. This is by design. The concept of a scrollbar as being the mechanism for scrolling is for mouse-based UIs. Touchscreens scroll via gestures sliding the whole thing up and down.
I strongly encourage you to use some touchscreen hardware -- whether or not it is an Android phone -- before you start attempting to write Android applications.
