+Duane Forster The content in this video applies to list of indefinite length.

+Duane Forster Encapsulate it inside a Scrollview instead of Relative Layout. Now you can just scroll all the way down to as many list items as there is. I haven't tested it but it seems how it'd work.

MattBee2k2 Duane Forster You should never put a ScrollView inside of a ListView. View this link: developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ScrollView.html

No problem. Please make recommendations for other tutorials and I'll try my best to make one.

what do you mean the buttons position to random?

+Jonathan Davis (iBlacklegend) As in the when u clicked the button ( the number of the position was random/changed). Anyway i fixed it by only bracketing the layoutinflater and convertview in the if(convertView == null) statement and removing the else. Run your code then scroll to the bottom then check the if the number outputted when clicking the list and the button on the same row are the same. For me the Value in buttons were swapped around. eg when i clicked list item in row 1 it would give be position = 0 and when i clicked button in row 1 it would give be position = 0 BUT after i scrolled to the bottom, row 1 list item position was still = 0 and row 1 for button would change to a random value. :/ im horrible at explaining sry

+monjenvely i am facing the same problem! how did you fixed this can you please explain more ?

probably because reused view contained old listener, and displayed text that it was assigned at creation, but when it got reused, the listener hasn't been changed and showed text for it's position in its "previous life".

the listener is written in if block ..it should be either in else block or out of the scope of if and else

Yeah this is very simple to do. One you recieve the data from your database post a runnable using a handler on the UI thread, to set the adapter on the ListView. A better solution is to use a Loader (they were designed for loading data asynchronosly and displaying it to the UI when its finished). There is a very great tutorial by Alex Lockwood that goes into depth on the topic of Loaders and building your own.

+Manas Singh The problem is probably in your getView() method of the list adapter.

+Jonathan Davis (iBlacklegend) even in this tutorial the text next to image is not getting populated... it's remaining the same as "New Text" (can be seen in the end of the tutorial when app runs on emulator), even its using some function to generate data.

+Manas Singh As was my initial suspicion, the problem was tied to the getView method. The code inside of else bracket, was preventing the textview from having it''s text set. Eventually if you scrolled the list until views started to be recycled and convert view was no longer null you would see the correct text. So to fix the error would be to just remove the else statement brackets from getView so that it is always executed.

+Jonathan Davis (iBlacklegend) Thanks a lot, worked great!

+Manas Singh the code for setting text is missing within the if(convertView == null). That's why no text was set at initiation. Add viewHolder.textView.setText(getItem(position).toString()). Then it should work.

Yeah, you can load any image you want, it could even be a video if you'd like. You need to hande the loading logic inside of the getView(...) method.

Inside of the OnClick listener of the button manually manipulate the badge counter nested inside of your action bar.

Nevermind found the answer in the comments :)

when you create another layout to customize the list inside it make fragment as you want inside that layout

If you store the references in viewholders like I've down with the imageview reference, just use that to set any views properties with appropriate casting where necessary.

+Jonathan Davis (iBlacklegend) i'm sorry i have the same question. i want to set, example, movie name and movie genre in 1 list item where both have there own textview. In generateListContent(), data.add can only pass 1 value for a text view. how can i pass 2 values for the separate textviews in data when data is an ArrayList of type string? sorry being a newb in advance....

+AbikersPOV Instead of a string, you can store a custom item called 'Movie' that has two fields that hold the movie' title and genre. Doing this will allow you to add additional data to the list item in the future if you wish to do so. Some examples would be adding the movie's rottentomato or metacritic score, the movies star rating aggregation, the movies runtime and watched/unwatched flag.

Once you've updated your data source (eg. your array of strings) just call .notifyDataSetChanged() on your adapter

In your project explorer right click on the layout folder and select the option "new > Layout Resource file".

+faeezstranger listView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() { @Override public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View view, int position, long id) { String selected = ((TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.movie_name)).getText().toString(); Toast toast = Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),selected,Toast.LENGTH_LONG); toast.show(); } });

what do you mean by clicked out?

the item on list being click..

+faeezstranger I don't really understand your question. If you want to handle list clicks my video should show you how to do that. I have the source code on github also.

yes me too now this happening but when i set onclickleistener nothing happen here the link use baseadapter kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qrKGrZio0rTdoqs.html

My video is fine as is, but since it so close to Christmas I'll be helpful. Only a simple change is needed to implement what you want. Also using an ArrayList is a good example for the tutorial purpose of this video because it has a very simple interface that is common amongst other collection classes and can easily be switched out with minimum code rewriting.

Pacakge the value inside of a bundle using one of its various typed methods for storing a value and then store the bundle inside of the starting intent for the new activity.

I don't see the problem you're having. Could you explain exactly what is happening when you scroll because all the listview item position is changed as well as the radio button isn't clear.

+Jonathan Davis (Wade) firstly thanks to replying.. i'll tell the exact problem.. i have a listview and listview contains two radio button one is yes and other is no .. when I'm scrolling my listview and selecting my yes radio button then again I'm scrolling my listview then others radio buttons are automatically selclected ...thts the main problem

ATUL VARSHNEY The problem is that the views and their state (such as checked, selected, enabled, disabled etc) are being recycled when you scroll the ListView. You need to manually check whether whatever criteria you are use the radio button represents inside of every call to getView(),

I may be able to help you but just for clarities sake, could you draw a small image of exactly what you're trying to achieve?

Basically on the video, no activity launches when you press a button, so how can that be achieved(different buttons, different acitivities launched). Like example, when you fire up an SMS app, a list comes up with all your messages, and you can scroll from top to bottom, so how can i do that???

Inside of the views onClick method, do not start a new activity and just leave it blank if you don't want the view to react to clicks.

what IDE is that?

george gallimore Android Studio. I'm using a Material Design plug-in.

It can be any number of things. First check your log cat and see what line is causing the crash.

Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void android.widget.ListView.setAdapter(android.widget.ListAdapter)' on a null object reference This is what i got in logcat.

on setAdapter function when pressed Alt+Enter suggests to assert lv!=null.

did you create a ListView variable somewhere? if not, then make one. if yes, then you are probably not filling the list with anything to show. you need to give the adapter an array of things (last argument of adapter creation) which the adapter should display in the ListView

+Vikrant Singh that's pretty much it (y) thanks for responding!!

+Vikrant Singh +Joe IsNotimpressed I updated the code on github that should fix the incorrect position issue.

set a textview where you want then set a list in array using string then do like what this guy done

+MisterLoba Loba I haven't made the source code public. I can add it to github tomorrow.

In your project explorer right click on the layout folder and select the option "new > Layout Resource file".

When the item scrolls off screen and then back on, it has the correct name. Just wondering why this is the case. Great tutorial btw.

There was a bug in my getview() method that caused it my logic to incorrectly choose the wrong indexes from the listview. The code on my GitHub should contain a solution.

how to create listview with button click to another activity

Please be more descriptive. What exactly isn't working for you? Are you getting exceptions or is nothing loading when you run the app?

When I run app it crashes. I probably made mistake somewhere

What's the logs inside of your logcat when you run the app? Can you post your code to Github and I will take a look at it.

+Armando Barreda You are complaining about a tutorial that doesn't fit to your use case. That is very unprofessional and uncalled for. I made this tutorial to be very generic and general purpose, as to teach anyone to implement an enhanced ListView. Your problem seems to be (besides being rude and disrespectful) centered on the fact you don't understand the basics of ListView, and the Android layout system. My video assumes a certain level knowledge to be able to achieve the enhanced ListView.

This tutorial was very helpful and beneficial even-though it was made years ago, if you dont understand code to a certain degree; dont run your mouth off to someone who has given his time in helping other people understand efficient ways in using list views. Cheers for the tutorial btw(forgot to mention it) :)

TheCheeky901 shut up kid

Armando Barreda well I can tell that you still can't code

@Hello, World maybe learn how to do the work on your own. You're criticizing a free tutorial because it doesn't give you all the work you need. As you said it would only take 30 seconds, why don't you make your own video that includes it an unnecessary snippet of making a basic list item. Secondly, I posted all of the code online, so you can just as easily go there and look at it. Of course, I'd be offended by both his and your disrespectful and entitled comments on a video I posted two years old for a class assignment.
