Android :: Unwanted State Changes Of CheckBoxes In ListView
Apr 30, 2010
I am facing a very mysterious Problem. I am using a ListView with CheckBoxes that can be clicked to select people. The row layout is the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content"> <CheckBox android:focusable="false" android:onClick="onSelectPerson" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:layout_marginRight="5dip" android:layout_marginLeft="5dip"/> <TextView android:id="@+id/person_name" android:text="test" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:gravity="center_vertical" android:textSize="18dip" android:layout_marginLeft="5dip"/> </LinearLayout>
As long as the amount of rows doesen't exceed the screen size (-> no scrolling) everything works just fine. But as soon as I have more rows then the screen size (-> some rows are hidden and have to be scrolled to). I have a very mysterious phenomenon: If I check the top row and scroll down some of the previously hidden rows are randomly checked too. If I scroll up again, again some of the before hidden rows are randomly vhecked (the CheckBox I clicked in first place may or may not still be checked). Also the registered onSelectPerson callback is only called for the CheckBoxes I really click. The other CheckBoxes just change their state to "checked" without calling the callback method. I have the same phenomenom on the Archos IT 5 and the Nexus One. This must have something to do with the ListView implementation but I can't quite figure out what the problem is.

I have some 34 checkboxes on one Activity which i have to mark and unmark. and I want to save the status of the each checkbox.
I want this persistently. So should i have a sqlite table or preferences ?
If sqlite table is recommended, then what should be the ideal table structure design?

Given a listview that shows checkboxes next to a list of people, I want to be able to get the names (in Strings for example) of the people who are checked. I have set my listview mode to allow for multiple checks.
getCheckedItemPositions()
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.

Any one knows why my ToggleButtons won't keep their states in a ListView?
Each list item includes a ToggleButton - when scrolled off from the screen their states are reset to unchecked...
I presume getView() is called once they're visible; however I'm not re instantiating them anyways.

My ListActivity is bound to an ArrayAdapter where I have overriden the getView() method. If I change the visibility of a widget in that method or modify the view's background color, those changes somehow get lost once that modified list item returns after being scrolled off the screen. In fact, some other view in the list is picking up the changes. How do I get the modified view to look the same when it's redisplayed after scrolling?

Is there a way to show that a WebView item contained as a item in a ListView is selected? Right now the WebView does not seem to display its contents transparently like every other control so it takes up the entire view and does not show its state as selected.
Also, when the content of the WebView is selected, scrolling down with the track back does not seem to cause the WebView to loose focus. If I continue to scroll down with the track ball, all of a sudden an item in the middle of the ListView gets selected.

I'm facing problem in scrolling. I've 20-25 items in my List, if i checked first check box, scroll down, then come up, my checked status lost (becomes unchecked), in cursor adaptor. If i use base adaptor problem is resolved but major issue with base adaptor is performance, if my list goes beyond the 100 items.

I cant find a way to save the checkbox state when using a Cursor adapter. Everything else works fine but if i click on a checkbox it is repeated when it is recycled. Ive seen examples using array adapters but because of my lack of experience im finding it hard to translate it into using a cursor adapter. Could someone give me an example of how to go about it.code...

I have TabActivity that uses 2 other ListActivities for the tabs. Both underlying ListViews are set to CHOICE_MODE_MULTIPLE. When I run the following sequence of events, I get a strange result: 1) Setup one activity (tab) and its ListView using a CursorAdapter, including checking some items on the list 2) Reorient the screen (open the keyboard) 3) Setup the second activity (tab) and its ListView using a CursorAdapter, including checking some items on the list 4) Switch back to the first tab
At this point, I can see in Eclipse that although (of course) each ListView is a distinct object, the internal variable used to store the checked state of items, called mCheckStates, is the SAME OBJECT REFERENCE in each of the ListViews.
Clearly this is an issue, since the two views should not share the checked state of items between them.
If I skip step #2, this does not occur
Here is a bit more detail:
After Step 1: ListView1 is object reference @1, ListView1.mCheckStates is object reference @2
After Step 2: ListView1 is object reference @3, ListView1.mCheckStates is object reference @4 (the reorientation recreates the views)
After Step 3: ListView2 is object reference @5, ListView1.mCheckStates is object reference @2 <-- note the reuse of this reference from step #1, not sure how/why
After Step 4: ListView1 is object reference @3 (unchanged), ListView1.mCheckStates is object reference @2 (changed) <-- same as ListView2.mCheckStates

New to Android. I always used a app called Magicall on my WM device. I want to be able to block specific contacts, unknown number or anonymous numbers and also specific contacts for SMS. I can see I have the option to send a contact direct to voicemail but don't have the same facility for unknown/anonymous callers and nothing to block SMS. Any recommendations for an app that works with 2.1? (I'm using a HTC Desire)

I have a compound UI component built up from a ViewGroup containing a number of TextView, ImageView etc. components. Many of these have StateListDrawables as their images/backgrounds. Is there any way of making them select from this drawable based on the state of the parent ViewGroup rather than the component itself? Ideally I want to be able to change the visual state of all children of the ViewGroup (text colour, image etc) based on the state of the ViewGroup, preferably without having to hook up complex logical code. This seems like a fairly common sort of requirement, so I was hoping it would be straightforward in Android - am I going to be disappointed?

I'm a little confused by what I'm seeing with regards to phone state transitions via the PhoneStateListener. When I receive a call, this is what happens: (call comes in) RINGING -> IDLE (I pick up) OFFHOOK (I hang up) IDLE It's that first transition from RINGING to IDLE without any interaction from me (not ending the call, not answering the call) that confuses me. Do I really have to implement an idle counter to know that an incoming call has really ended? Seems like the reported phone state represents some sort of phone state that isn't the obvious one.Is this a bug or am I just not in tune with the paradigm here?

I have being playing around with expandable list views recently. I am trying to get a list view that has a checkbox as one of the elements of the child view.
I found this tutorial, http://mylifewithandroid.blogspot.com/2010/02/expandable-lists-and-check-boxes.html, and it seemed perfect. However when I compiled it and started playing with it I realised its very buggy. Checking a box in one group can cause a random box from another group to check or uncheck.,
This is the only tutorial I can find on this, It seems like a thing that would be used in a lot of apps, so I was wondering, is there any other good tutorial or resource out there that deals with this? Or even better, would anyone care to show their own code having gotten this to work...

I have a ListView, and within each list item I have some TextViews and a CheckBox. When I check a CheckBox and my onCheckedChangeListener fires, everything works as it should. However, random other checkboxes get checked once one is checked. Here is an example.
If I click on the first CheckBox:
8 is checked.
15 is checked.
21 is checked.
27 is checked.
33 is checked.
41 is checked.
Then if I scroll all the way up, none are checked until 6. The next being 13.

I want to add some checkboxes to a LinearLayout at runtime. The orientation is vertical and I want the checkboxes to appear at the bottom. I create each checkbox like this: CheckBox box = new CheckBox(this);
Then I add the box to the current view like this: addContentView( box , params ); What should be the params to get the effect I want? So far, everything I've tried ends up overlaying the new checkboxes on top of each other and on top of the other items in the layout. I want everything stacked in a column with the new checkboxes at the bottom.

How can I assign good _answer_id, to _question_id...

I'd like to have a dialog box which prompts the user to select from various checkboxes, then confirm "Ok" or "Cancel". I have this working, but my only issue is the dialog always retains the previous checkbox selection state from the last time the dialog was shown. I'd like to always force the checkboxes to be unchecked (false) every time. Is there a way to accomplish this?............

What should I do to use custom checkboxes if I add my checkboxes dynamically in my code? (On the java code not on the XML files.) I'm following this tutorial, but using it I can't achieve my goal. For example, I have a tableLayout and I want to add a checkbox for each new row I have.

This application is called "Get Healthy". I have no clue of how to activate the checkboxes. There are four diffrent checkboxes listed and with every diffrent combination there is a diffrent calculation. For example, Calculating a User's Daily Caloric Intake
The daily caloric intake is the amount of calories that someone is consuming in order to maintain their current weight. This calculation takes the following characteristics into consideration:
male (checkbox) or female (checkbox)
active(checkbox) or inactive (checkbox)
