Here is my Exception
java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke interface method 'void android.view.View$OnAttachStateChangeListener.onViewDetachedFromWindow(android.view.View)' on a null object reference

Change your code like below.
public PuzzleBoardView(Context context) {
super(context);
setMinimumWidth(50);
activity = (PuzzleActivity) context;
animation = null;
if(activity!=null)
initialize();
}
and remove initialize method from onCreate()

Horizontal ScrollView Gallery. Scroll both directions or from begining

I am making horizontal scrollview gallery, and I want to autoscroll it. Now it's scrolling from left to right but when I reach end of list I just simply jump to first one, but it looks really bad, so I want to go scroll around from beginning avoiding just skipping to first one, or if it is not possible just start scrolling to the other side when I reach last view on right (maybe better option). Could someone help me how to do this?

scrolling back the other way would be easiest.
add in a instance variable that is set to 1.0 (called say scrollDist)
then change this line
scrollPos = (int) (horizontalScrollview.getScrollX() + 1.0);
to
scrollPos = (int) (horizontalScrollview.getScrollX() + scrollDist);
and this line
scrollPos = 0;
to
scrollDist *= -1.0;
this way it will reverse each time it hits the end of the scrollview.

For endless scrolling use the following snnipet
public void getScrollMaxAmount() {
int actualWidth = (horizontalOuterLayout.getMeasuredWidth() - getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getWidth());
scrollMax = actualWidth;
}
public void moveScrollView() {
// ********************* Scrollable Speed ***********************
scrollPos = (int) (horizontalScrollview.getScrollX() + 1.0);
if (scrollPos >= scrollMax) {
Log.v("childCount", ""+scrollMax);
addImagesToView();
getScrollMaxAmount();
}
horizontalScrollview.scrollTo(scrollPos, 0);
}

Touch events is becoming slow and sometimes not handled in Listview in android

I am using touch listener for an imageview in the listview item .It is working fine when I just do that like an sample application(I mean I have that Listview item as an sample one). But when I put this in a listview it is really becoming very slow.
I just wants to drag the image only horizantally,for that purpose I used ConstrainedDragandDrop View class which I got from the Github.
In my sample application:
public class HorizontalScroll extends Activity {
ImageView full_left,heart;
RelativeLayout rlMainLayout,rlImages,Cartoon_image,half_left,play_btn,centre,centre_leftanimate;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.inflated_bloops);
half_left=(RelativeLayout)findViewById(R.id.half_left);
Cartoon_image=(RelativeLayout)findViewById(R.id.cartoon_image);
play_btn=(RelativeLayout)findViewById(R.id.play_btn);
heart=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.ivheart);
ConstrainedDragAndDropView dndView = (ConstrainedDragAndDropView) findViewById(R.id.dndView);
dndView.setDragHandle(findViewById(R.id.cartoon_image),findViewById(R.id.half_left),heart);
dndView.setAllowVerticalDrag(false,HorizontalScroll.this);
}
}
When I used in my Listview:
public class Cars extends BaseAdapter
{
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{
View v = convertView;
LayoutInflater inflator = getLayoutInflater();
v= inflator.inflate(R.layout.inflated_bloops, null);
ConstrainedDragAndDropView dndView = (ConstrainedDragAndDropView) v.findViewById(R.id.dndView);
dndView.setDragHandle(v.findViewById(R.id.cartoon_image),v.findViewById(R.id.half_left),heart);
dndView.setAllowVerticalDrag(false,FeedModeActivity.this);
RelativeLayout Cartoon_image=(RelativeLayout)v.findViewById(R.id.cartoon_image);
ImageView ivDummy =(ImageView)v.findViewById(R.id.dummy);
try{
loader.DisplayImageRelative( al_new.get(position).replace(" ", "%20"),ivDummy, Cartoon_image);
}
catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
return v;
}
#Override
public int getCount() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return al_new.size();
}
#Override
public Object getItem(int arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
#Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return 0;
}
}

how to add fast scroll and alphabetical section index in listview

In details, I am looking for an example exactly like below image. I got a good example in this link https://github.com/woozzu/IndexableListView.

if i add this it works code in mainactivity
listView = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.homelistView);

your are using a custom ListView class, com.woozzu.android.widget.IndexableListView
You have to replace your "ListView " in layout file to a "com.woozzu.android.widget.IndexableListView"
Change your Layout to:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:background="#ff3344"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="#ffffff"
android:layout_alignTop="#+id/scrollView1"
android:layout_toRightOf="#+id/scrollView1" >
<com.woozzu.android.widget.IndexableListView
android:id="#+id/homelistView"
android:layout_width="0dip"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1.04"
android:dividerHeight="0dip" >
</com.woozzu.android.widget.IndexableListView>
</LinearLayout>
</RelativeLayout>
</LinearLayout>

The solution Suggested by #Anis is the only working solution I found. In addition to that, If you want Click listeners to components on your List View Items, you have to update the Code as mentioned here, https://github.com/denley/IndexableListView/commit/18210a54487ba079bb332fafec709e2de26883db

Android view flickering at the beginning TranslateAnimation

I use TranslateAnimation to move buttons and it works fine, but before animation started strange flickering apear. For short time animated view moves to position higher then it is. After that view back to normal position and animation started.
I use RelativeLayout and move 7 buttons.
public void moveView(final int rotationType) {
AnimationSet animationList[] = new AnimationSet[buttonAmount];
for (int i = 0; i < buttonAmount; i++) {
AnimationSet animationsSet = new AnimationSet(false);
animationsSet.setFillAfter(true);
boolean visible = true;
boolean hide = false;
boolean show = false;
ImageButton button = buttons.get(i);
int position = i + movementCount;
if (position < 0) {
position = getLastButtonId();

position = position - buttonAmount;

// TODO left right
if (rotationType == RIGHTBUTTON) {
position--;
} else if (rotationType == LEFTBUTTON) {
position++;
}

position = getLastButtonId();
} else if (position > getLastButtonId()) {
position = position - buttonAmount;
}
int nL = getDP(leftCoord.get(position));
int nB = getDP(bottomCoord.get(position));
int left = cL - nL;
int bot = cB - nB;
