I met a lot of issues related with my problem but nobody I found wanted the behaviour I'm looking for.
I want a view pager with tabs and app bar, when the contained fragments are scrollable and are scrolled (toward bottom), I want the app bar to disapear but leave the tabs, when scrolled toward top, to re-apear. some of these fragments contain a SwipeToRefresh Layout (sometimes it causes problems). I tried a lot of configurations that always leave something wrong.
for now I don't have the collapsing effect (it's always hidden)

and one of my fragment (the scrolling one) :

android:layout_height="match_parent"

</RelativeLayout>
</android.support.v4.widget.SwipeRefreshLayout>
</FrameLayout>
I don't know exactly what I've done but from the time I started write this question the refreshLayout prevent my List from going up (it refreshes instead)..
Thanks
------Correction !
