The ViewPager specified WRAP_CONTENT as its width.
What content?

The ViewPager can show more than one page and only one is visible at a 
time. If it had to choose the 'content' to use to figure out how wide the 
WRAP_CONTENT width should be, which page should it use?
WRAP_CONTENT doesn't make sense for a ViewPager.

ViewPager should have a fixed width, either through MATCH_PARENT or through 
a set number of pixels (dpi). If the ViewPager shouldn't occupy the entire 
width of the screen, you could (for example) use a horizontal LinearLayout 
with three child views: Two plain Views; one on the left, one on the right; 
One ViewPager in the middle. Set the layout_widths to all of them to 0dp 
and assign an appropriate layout_weight to all three of them.
