Android Studio ListView Checkbox Save

Ive looked at a few other questions on stackoverflow about this questions however I am not able to implement this into my code as I have done things a bit differently I believe. I am still learning Android Studio so please bear with me for any stupidity.
I'm looking to create check boxes on the right side of the listview I currently have that when checked will stay in that state when the user loads the application back in.
XML:
<TextView
android:id="#+id/textView3"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:text="Which Will Be Next"
android:textAllCaps="false"
android:textColor="#f1b75a"
android:textSize="32sp"
android:textStyle="bold" />
<ListView
android:id="#+id/results_listview"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_below="#+id/textView3"></ListView>
</RelativeLayout>
Activity Code:
public class .... extends AppCompatActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_all_flavour);
ListView resultListView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.results_listview);
HashMap<String, String> nameAddress = new HashMap<>();
nameAddress.put("exmp ", "Locate");
List<HashMap<String, String>> listItems = new ArrayList<>();
SimpleAdapter adapter = new SimpleAdapter(this, listItems, R.layout.list_item, new String[]{"First Address", "Second Address"},new int[]{R.id.tv1, R.id.tv3});
Iterator it = nameAddress.entrySet().iterator();
while (it.hasNext()){
HashMap<String, String> resultsMap = new HashMap<>();
Map.Entry pair = (Map.Entry)it.next();
resultsMap.put("First Address", pair.getKey().toString());
resultsMap.put("Second Address", pair.getValue().toString());
listItems.add(resultsMap);
}
resultListView.setAdapter(adapter);
}
}
List Items.xml
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
<CheckedTextView
android:id="#+id/tv1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#ffa200"
android:textSize="21sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
android:drawableLeft="?android:attr/listChoiceIndicatorMultiple"
/>
<CheckedTextView
android:id="#+id/tv3"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textColor="#ffffff"
android:textSize="16sp"
android:textStyle="bold"
/>
</LinearLayout>
Any help is appreciated :)

I suggest the you can use Recyclerview instead listview, Try this way
public class CardViewDataAdapter extends
RecyclerView.Adapter<CardViewDataAdapter.ViewHolder> {
private List<Student> stList;
public CardViewDataAdapter(List<Student> students) {
this.stList = students;
}
// Create new views
#Override
public CardViewDataAdapter.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent,
int viewType) {
// create a new view
View itemLayoutView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(
R.layout.cardview_row, null);
// create ViewHolder
ViewHolder viewHolder = new ViewHolder(itemLayoutView);
return viewHolder;
}
#Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder viewHolder, int position) {
final int pos = position;
viewHolder.tvName.setText(stList.get(position).getName());
viewHolder.tvEmailId.setText(stList.get(position).getEmailId());
viewHolder.chkSelected.setChecked(stList.get(position).isSelected());
viewHolder.chkSelected.setTag(stList.get(position));
viewHolder.chkSelected.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
CheckBox cb = (CheckBox) v;
Student contact = (Student) cb.getTag();
contact.setSelected(cb.isChecked());
stList.get(pos).setSelected(cb.isChecked());
Toast.makeText(
v.getContext(),
"Clicked on Checkbox: " + cb.getText() + " is "
+ cb.isChecked(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
});
}
// Return the size arraylist
#Override
public int getItemCount() {
return stList.size();
}
public static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
public TextView tvName;
public TextView tvEmailId;
public CheckBox chkSelected;
public Student singlestudent;
public ViewHolder(View itemLayoutView) {
super(itemLayoutView);
tvName = (TextView) itemLayoutView.findViewById(R.id.tvName);
tvEmailId = (TextView) itemLayoutView.findViewById(R.id.tvEmailId);
chkSelected = (CheckBox) itemLayoutView
.findViewById(R.id.chkSelected);
}
}
// method to access in activity after updating selection
public List<Student> getStudentist() {
return stList;
}
}

Show and hide listview

I want to do list view like this. What I want is when user touch 1st item, the 2nd item row appear. When user touch 3rd row item the previous item automatically hide again. How can i achieve this instead of using expandable listview? guide me in achieving this. Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry that i'm a bit busy, so i can't write the code right now. But below is the way which you can use to get what you want. I will add code when i will get time.
There is a parameter name "android:animateayoutchanges", apply it to the parent of your view which will be visible and invisible.
Save the position of the item which you have clicked and expanded.
When you click that item, Set the visibility of the view to visible.
When you again click on that item position, set that item's visibility to gone.
When you click some other item, then set the visibility of the stored item position to gone, set currently selected item's visibility to visible and store it's position.
That's it.
android:animateayoutchanges is used so that when you set the visibility to visible or gone and views move upward or downward, then this movement will have smooth animation.
I will update my answer with code later But you will get an idea from above steps.

Read all values inside a list view Android

I am using a loop to read all the spinner elements (inside a cardview) in the listview.
But the loop gives one item less i.e. the last item.
I have included all the source code.
What may be the problem?
Is there any other way to read all the items in listview?

}

for (int i = 0; i < listView.getCount(); i++) {
// Get row's spinner
View listItem = listView.getItemAtPosition(i);

Spinner spinner = (Spinner) listItem.findViewById(R.id.subGrade);
temp.addProperty("subject",subjects.get(i).getCode());
temp.addProperty("grade", spinner.getSelectedItem().toString());
temparr.add(temp);
}
Check for above code in main activity. Use .getCount() instead .getChildCount()
and use .getItemAtIndex() instead .getChildAt().
I hope this solves the issue.

Selections disappear when scrolling in listview, along with strange behaviour

I have run into some strange issues with my listview. I created a list using listview, along with a custom adapter to display rows with a text field and multiple images. I beleive that I have that part working well. I also put two buttons at the bottom of the listview so that I can select rows and modify them using the two buttons. I implemented highlighting by simply changing the background color and then setting a boolean flag that is part of each row so I can know what rows are highlighted. Now I am experiencing two issues. The first is that if I select a row and then scroll so that row is outside of the screen, then the row becomes un-highlighted, which is bad. I only want a row to become un-highlighted if the user clicks on it again or if a command is issued. The second problem is that once the adapter is updated or a row moves out of view, if you try to click on a row it will immediately un-highlight itself; this only happens once. After that happens then you can click on the row and it will stay highlighted. I would very much appreciate some help with this.
Regards.

This happens because of the view recycling.
In the method getView() of your adapter, add the following piece of code :
if (!helmet.getSelected()) {
convertView.setBackgroundColor(Color.LTGRAY);
} else {
convertView.setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);
}
You might want to rewrite your view recycling by the way; the one you implemented is not effective at all.
A first step would be to add this :
#Override
public View getView (int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
if (convertView == null) {
convertView = inflater.inflate(resource, parent, false);
}
// continue the rest of the cell data filling
}

How to make a List Menu with Icon, Title, and a Description to open Another separate activity for each listView item?

I am trying to Develop a custom List menu with a unique Icon on the left a title and a small description underneath the title. I tried a few variations but none of them seem to work.
Here is what I did
item_view.xml
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingTop="15dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingBottom="15dp" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/item_icon"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/union_europea" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/year"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignBottom="#+id/item_icon"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/item_icon"
android:text="Small Text"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceSmall" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/countryName"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignLeft="#+id/year"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:text="Large Text"
android:textSize="18dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/continent"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:text="Medium Text"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:textSize="12dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceMedium" />
</RelativeLayout>
then I did the main_activity.xml
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >
<ListView
android:id="#+id/countryList"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" >
</ListView>
then I did the Countries.java
public class Countries {
private String country;
private int year;
private int iconID;
private String continent;
public Countries (String country, int year, int iconID, String continent){
super();
this.country = country;
this.year = year;
this.iconID = iconID;
this.continent = continent;
}
public String getCountry() {
return country;
}
public int getYear() {
return year;
}
public int getIconID() {
return iconID;
}
public String getContinent() {
return continent;
}
}
then I did the MainActivity.java
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private List<Countries> myCountries = new ArrayList<Countries>();
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
populateCountryList();
populateListView();
}
private void populateCountryList() {
myCountries.add(new Countries("European Union", 2014, R.drawable.union_europea, "Europe"));
myCountries.add(new Countries("Spain", 2015, R.drawable.espania, "Europe"));
myCountries.add(new Countries("Finland", 2016, R.drawable.finlandia, "Europe"));
myCountries.add(new Countries("France ", 2017, R.drawable.francia, "Europe"));
myCountries.add(new Countries("Ireland ", 2018, R.drawable.irlanda, "Europe"));
myCountries.add(new Countries("Italy", 2014, R.drawable.italia, "Europe"));
myCountries.add(new Countries("Monaco ", 2014, R.drawable.monaco, "Europe"));
myCountries.add(new Countries("Portugal", 2014, R.drawable.portugal, "Europe"));
myCountries.add(new Countries("Russia", 2014, R.drawable.rusia, "Europe"));
myCountries.add(new Countries("Malta", 2014, R.drawable.malta, "Europe"));
}
private void populateListView() {
ArrayAdapter<Countries> adapter = new MyListAdapter();
ListView list = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.countryList);
list.setAdapter(adapter);
}
private class MyListAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Countries>{
public MyListAdapter(){
super(MainActivity.this, R.layout.item_view, myCountries);
}
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
View itemView = convertView;
// make sure we have a view to work with
if(itemView == null){
itemView = getLayoutInflater().inflate(R.layout.item_view, parent, false);
}
// find country
Countries currentCountry = myCountries.get(position);
// fill the view
ImageView imageView = (ImageView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.item_icon);
imageView.setImageResource(currentCountry.getIconID());
TextView countryText = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.countryName);
countryText.setText(currentCountry.getCountry());
TextView yearText = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.year);
yearText.setText("" + currentCountry.getYear());
TextView continentText = (TextView) itemView.findViewById(R.id.continent);
continentText.setText(currentCountry.getContinent());
return itemView;
}
}
}
I have a listView with icon on the left, a title, and a description .
My question is how do I make it so when a user clicks on 1 of the list items and opens an individual activity that corresponds to that list item. ????

I think you need some modification in your class. There can be several way but I think this one will fine for you.
Change your MyListAdapter to below code.
public MyListAdapter(Context context, List<Countries> country_list, ListView list_view) {
super(MainActivity.this, R.layout.item_view, myCountries);
if (list_view != null) {
list_view.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
long arg3) {
// YOU CAN START YOUR ACTIVITY HERE.
Intent my_activity_intent = new Intent(context, my_activity.class);
startActivity(my_activity_intent);
}
});
}
}
Change
private void populateListView() {
ArrayAdapter<Countries> adapter = new MyListAdapter(this, myCountries, list);
ListView list = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.countryList);
list.setAdapter(adapter);
}
you can create "setOnItemClickListener" in your main activity also. Only change will be while creating activity "Intent my_activity_intent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, my_activity.class);" need to do for activity intent.
If you have any doubt you can ask. Its all about basics and your programming style. Try to learn such things. :)

my solution is only applicable if you are having limited number of list items.
list_view.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
long arg3) {
switch(arg2)
{
case 0:
startActivity(new Intent(context,Activity0.class));
break;
case 1:
startActivity(new Intent(context,Activity1.class));
break;
//Implement cases for all list items
}
}
});
And if you are having more number items then another possible solution is to pass all the data of selected item i.e image,text,description and display it in next activity.
You can ask if you have any further problems :)
