View 1 RepliesI try to implements lazy loading of images in a listview. There is no android features to make this, so I should implement it by myself. Have anyone already done this? Take the solution care of scrolling and lazy loading new images and stop to load not more necessary images?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI trying a hand at ListViews and my current experiment is aimed at displaying some data in a ListView. The data to be displayed in each row is simple: an image and some text. The images come from a remote server and the textual data is hardcoded. I have a class that downloads images using AsyncTask and caches the list of images fetched as SoftReferences in a LinkedHashMap. I am also passing a reference of the view to this class, so when the image download/cache read is complete the class will set appropriate Bitmap in the view.

I implemented the lazy-loading images in my ListView. I use a AsyncTask to download the image from the internet and bind it to the ImageView in the UIThread. It's working except that when I scroll the ListView vary fast, the downloaded images sometimes are binded into the wrong items in the list.I guess the problem is from the reuse of convertView in the BaseAdapter. Code...
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my Android App I have a listview containing 30 rows, and each row consists of several textviews of which one is spannable and sometimes contains a lot of formatted text and images. Those images are loaded from the web asynchroneously: A placeholder is displayed until the image has been downloaded is then replaced by the image. Unfortunately, the rows of the listview are loaded when I scroll over them. This makes the whole thing very slow. Also, those images are loaded from the web again and again, whenever I scroll over the row. can I turn it off, that the ListView rows are loaded when I scroll over them? They should be loaded once when I start the activity and never again.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHere are 4 references that I have found for lazy-loading images into a listview in Android. The idea is to display a placeholder image, get the actual image in the background, update the ImageView in the list when the image is available. I've tried to do this in the simplest way possible using an AsyncTask in an Adapter. The outline of that approach is below. Is it flawed? Is there an agreed approach to handling this common task? Code...
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis is a very common scenario: displaying images in a ListView which have to be downloaded from the internet.Right now I have a custom subclass of ArrayAdapter which I use for the ListView. In my getView() implementation of the ArrayAdapter, I spawn a separate thread to load an image. After the loading is done, it looks up the appropriate ImageView and sets the image with ImageView.setImageDrawable(). So the solution I used is kind of similar to this one: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/541966/android-how-do-i-do-a-lazy-load-of-images-in-listviewThe problem I'm having is that as soon as I make the call to setImageDrawable() on the ImageView, the ListView somehow refreshes all currently visible rows in the list! This results in kind of an infinite loop. Code...
View 2 Replies View RelatedThere are some others applications doing this, like Twitter, Facebook, or even native applications such as Android Market. When you want to display a list of items retrieved from the internet, this looks like a standard way for displaying the user some notification about action in progress. This is a white background screen with an animated spinning wheel and a "Loading..." text. Does somebody know how to do this?. I've been able to do something similar with this code, but i don't like it too much yet.
Still work in progress:
CODE:...............
I've reviewed some posts about lazy loading but I believe my problem is a bit different.
I have a gallery (my class extends Gallery) which displays 20 rather large in size images (400-500K each). I cannot load them all to gallery since I get an OutOfMemory exception.
So, I created an array of 20 Drawables and initially populated the first 9 elements (the images come from the Web) and set all the rest to null. My intention was this: on a fling to the right, fetch element no. 10 and set to null element no. 0. On another fling to the right fetch element no. 11 and set to null element no. 1 to null. Same logic on a fling left.
The problem is I can fling much faster than the elements are fetched.
My gallery has a BaseAdapter and its getView() looks something like this:
CODE:.......................
How do I tell getView() - if imageArray[position] is still null, show a "loading..." dialog and once it is set repeat yourself with the same position? I don't want to see the imageView empty and then set on the fly. I want to not be able to see the imageView at all until it is set.
I am adding items to my data source and would like it to appear in my ListView.
For some reason nothing is appearing:

Here is my layout:

I'm pretty new to Android development and I just hit a brick wall in the development of an app, I'm currently working on.
The problem is that I have a list of locations (states), and when one is selected, a list of cities from that state is loaded via http request and JSON and then is supposed to be inserted into a listview in another activity.
So now I have the StateList activity and the CityList activity. Currently, the statelist activity starts the citylist activity via an intent and gives it a state name. Then, the citylist activity uses that name and requests data from a server via AsyncTask. As result I get an array of City objects, which are supposed to be inserted into an adapter for a listview.
Now begins my problem: I don't want the second activity to show up before all data is loaded. I also don't want the first activity to do the request and then have to transfer the whole result to the second activity using intent extras.
So what would I have to do now to have the second activity load all the data and only then really show up? I tried only setting the content view after receiving the data, but since the base class onCreate() is tied to some manipulation of the layout, I would also have to call onCreate() at that point, which is not allowed.
Here some code snippets of what I tried already:
The onCreate() method of my second activity (which is supposed to hide):
[high]protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
// send request for citylist data
CitylistRequest request = new CitylistRequest(this, new State(0, getIntent().getExtras().getString("state")));
request.execute();

I am running a droid x currently unrooted (but have been rooted since 2.1).
I have rooted every install of 2.2 except for my current one (for testing purposes).
The problem is that every two or so weeks ever since installing the 2.2 OTA I have to do a factory reset in order for my 3G internet to work on the phone.
Let me explain the symptoms. Randomly the phone will refuse to finish loading webpages or market items over 3G. Sometimes after waiting a real long time or clicking a lot it will load the pages... but sometimes it will not. The internet still functions fine on the phone over wifi connection, and here's the real surprise: I can tether my laptop via both wireless tether and barnacle I get full speed on the computer even though on the phone it won't load. It always ends up taking a factory reset before it will work again.
I have 3G and my signal bars are fine.
I have been trying to figure this out for weeks. Here are the things I've tried so far:
-Cycle phone off and on multiple times.
-Cycle wifi and airplane mode multiple times.
-Multiple battery pulls.
-Clear cache and force close every application and service known to man.
-Uninstall various applications to see if they are causing problems.
-Remove SU privileges from different/all root apps.
-Try different browsers.
-*228 both options 1 and 2
-Repair privileges.
I have done a facory reset with froyo 4 times now. Each time within 2-12 days the problem returns and I can't fix it without a reset. The last three times I've reset I have gone through the whole process skipping every option to install accounts etc. as recommended to many guides.
I'm just getting my feet wet with Android and have built a UI that contains a TabHost with three tabs. Each tab is powered by its own Activity. The first Tab contains a listview with a prepopulated set of rows and is built from a custom ArrayAdapter.
The problem I'm running into is that none of the ListView rows are tappable. In other words, when I tap on them there is no orange selection. If I use the scroll ball on my Nexus One it will select, but any touch gestures don't seem to be responding. All the UI is being handled using XML files with a main.xml housing the TabHost -> LinearLayout -> TabWidget/FrameLayout and a nearby_activity.xml file containing my ListView UI
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

How to add items to a ListView in Android during runtime?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a listview that's using a custom adapter. I want to dynamically show/remove items from the listview. I've tried everything inside the getView() method in my view adapter. I've tried doing setVisiblity(View.GONE) on the view I'm returning. And it infact doesn't draw the view, but it allocates space for the view and it's just a blank black space.
Is this even possible to set items in listview invisible?
I seem to be having a problem with Android ListView. I'm trying to delete the selected item from ListView. The delete method is working and will allow me to delete as many items from my list as needed, but whenever I scroll to the bottom of the list (after atleast 1 item has been deleted) I get an Error that closes the Application.
Here is my code:

For my CS bachelors I am doing a Senior project using android and google maps.My vision was to do a (relatively) simple Dijkstra shortest path using google maps road data. I was going to add elevation change along with 2D distance. I am doing well playing with maps in android but I am completely stumped trying to access google maps data in any sort of searchable form.How would I go about accessing the data for say intersections of roads (lat/long) in a particular area?There has to be a way to pull that data in some sort of tree form. It seems like it may be possible with kml?Any pointers would be awesome.I want my paths to follow roads but If i cant this is going to turn into an orienteering application fairly fast.

This is what i tried:

View 3 Replies View RelatedCan somebody please give me an example code of removing all ListView items and replacing with new items. I tried replacing the adapter items.Still no results.
My code is:
at first I am calling
populateList(){
results -populated arraylist with strings
ArrayAdapter<String> adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>
(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, results);
listview.setAdapter(adapter);
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
listview.setOnItemClickListener(this);
}
I want to set the onclicklistner on the each item to be displayed in ListVIew. The code I have written is:
package munish.android;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
public class List extends ListActivity {
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Use an existing ListAdapter that will map an array
// of strings to TextViews
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, mStrings));
getListView().setTextFilterEnabled(true);
} private String[] mStrings = {
"ImageView", "Grid View", "List View", "Map View", "Image Switcher", "Queso Jalapeno", "Queso Majorero", };
I'm trying to make a list that contains elements not necessarily occupying the entire width of the screen, but even if using android:layout_width="wrap_content" on my elements, they always behave as if their width value were set to "fill_parent" instead. If I set a fixed value for the width, e.g. "100px", that value is indeed used, but I just can't get wrap_content to work.
Example simple list item:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#707"> <TextView android:id="@+id/text1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:background="#770" android:text="Text1" /> <TextView android:id="@+id/text2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" android:layout_below="@id/ text1"
android:background="#077" android:text="Text2" /> </RelativeLayout>
What am I missing here? How do I accomplish a list item with wrap_content behaviour, i.e., where the width of each RelativeLayout is adapted to the length of the strings in the contained text views?
My app starts with a blank listview with a Menu option to Add contacts to the ListView. Now, I want that my ListView gets saved every time I quit my App so that the next time I start my App, I see all the contacts from last time. I understand that Android lets you store and retrieve data. Just don't know how to move forward from here.

Will get the positions but I can't figure out how to iterate over the listview to get the names. Also Eclipse tells me that getCheckItemIds is not a valid method for ListView.
I have to drag and drop items of ListView, which typically have an image and text. How can I implement this.
