Drop down menu or view on slide

I was wondering if someone could guide me on how to accomplish the following,

The user has a title bar, when the user holds the title bar and drags down; it shows the user a different view. This is a view residing in a tabhost.

It is similar to android's default statusbar.

You should try to accomplish this (an AccordionView-like behavior) using ViewFlipper with RelativeLayout children and attached OnTouchListeners on the headers. It worked for me.

Sample application

main.xml //inside res/layouts

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    <ViewFlipper android:id="@+id/flipper" 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
        <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
            <TextView android:id="@+id/txt_states" android:text="First panel" 
                android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"

                android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
            <Button android:id="@+id/btn_next" android:text="@string/goto_second"

        </RelativeLayout>
        <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
            <Button android:id="@+id/btn_prev" android:text="@string/goto_first"

Edit
If you'd like to split your different views into different layout xmls, say

first_view.xml and
second view.xml,

you should modify your onCreate method:

flipper = (ViewFlipper)findViewById(R.id.flipper);
LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater();

final View firstView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.first_view, flipper, false);
flipper.addView(firstView);

final View secondView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.second_view, flipper, false);
flipper.addView(secondView);

firstView.findViewById(R.id.btn_next).setOnTouchListener(this);
secondView.findViewById(R.id.btn_prev).setOnTouchListener(this);

Edit
or more elegantly and efficiently, simply just include the layout xmls you've created for the different views into your main.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    <ViewFlipper android:id="@+id/flipper" 
        android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
        <include android:id="@+id/flipping_view_1" layout="@layout/flipping_view_1" />
        <include android:id="@+id/flipping_view_2" layout="@layout/flipping_view_2" />
    </ViewFlipper>
</RelativeLayout>

where

the layout/flipping_view_1.xml contains the first RelativeLayout, and
the layout/flipping_view_2.xml contains the second RelativeLayout

of the ViewFlipper inside your original main.xml.
