Vertical Scrolling on Android

Hi,

I've tried looking this up but most posts are about vertical scrolling homescreens or a vertical scroll bar which is not what my question is about. I wanted to know if their was a way to change the behavior of an Android device such that if it recognizes that I am scrolling along the Y axis or the X axis, that it stay such until I lift my finger. The iOS devices do this fairly well, but the android device seems to break off of an axis especially if you are moving you finger slowly. I've made some videos to clarify:

Is there anyway to make it more like the iOS device?
