Recently, I was working on one of the requirement in which I had following widgets in same mobile view.

1. Kendo UI Mobile ListView
2. Kendo UI Mobile ButtonGroup

I had to fix position of ButtonGroup always on the top. To explain it more let us suppose there are a ListView and ButtonGroup as given in below image,

I have created above view with following code

<div data-role="view" data-title="Sessions" id="sessionview" data-show="getSessions">

 <ul data-role="buttongroup" data-index="1" data-select="onSelect">
 <li>Day 1</li>
 <li>Day 2</li>
 <li>Day 3</li>
 </ul>

 <ul id="sessionList"
 data-source="sessionDataSource"
 data-endlessscroll="true"
 data-template="sessionTemplate"
 data-role="listview"
 data-style="inset">
 </ul>

</div>

Only problem in above implementation is that, ButtonGroup is not fixed and when you scroll ListView it will scroll with ListView.

Fixing this or rather achieving this is quite simpler, what all you need to do is to put ButtonGroup inside a header. Essentially you need to do following,

Now I have modified implementation as below to achieve ButtonGroup at fixed position

<div data-role="view" data-title="Sessions" id="sessionview" data-show="getSessions">

 <div data-role="header">
 <ul data-role="buttongroup" data-index="1" data-select="onSelect">
 <li>Day 1</li>
 <li>Day 2</li>
 <li>Day 3</li>
 </ul>
 </div>
 <ul id="sessionList"
 data-source="sessionDataSource"
 data-endlessscroll="true"
 data-template="sessionTemplate"
 data-role="listview"
 data-style="inset">
 </ul>

</div>

On running application ButtonGroup is fixed at the top.

I hope you find this post useful. Thanks for reading.
