What you're trying to achieve are not scrolling tabs, but a ViewPager. You won't be able to get the look you want using only tabs.

Take a look at the good tutorial here on the ViewPager: http://android-developers.blogspot.co.uk/2011/08/horizontal-view-swiping-with-viewpager.html

The best way to implement this is to use Fragments, and the library ViewPageIndicator for the top list of pages.
