How to select item in the list view programmatically

I have an ArrayList<String> List which contains some items from the listview all_list. How can I select these items in the list view all_list programmatically by checking the ArrayList<String> List contents?
for e.g., listview all_list contains [0] apple
[1] orange
[2] banana
In ArrayList<String> List, I have orange so I want item on position 1 on the listview all_list to be selected (highlighted) automatically.
I have tried using all_list.setItemChecked(), but it does nothing and shuts down the application. I am performing the operation after listing the adapter.

set an onItemClickListener to the listview such that on click, you set a boolean flag that sets the checkbox in each row to selected. then call notifyDataSetChanged()

Try this
MainActivity.java
package com.example.multiseekbar;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener;
import android.widget.ListView;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
ListView listView1;
ArrayList<ModelClass> modelClass = new ArrayList<ModelClass>();
FruitSelectAdapter adapter;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
modelClass.add(new ModelClass("Orange", true));
modelClass.add(new ModelClass("Apple", false));
modelClass.add(new ModelClass("Banana", false));
modelClass.add(new ModelClass("Grapes", false));
listView1 = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView1);
adapter = new FruitSelectAdapter(MainActivity.this, modelClass);
listView1.setAdapter(adapter);
listView1.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2,
long arg3) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if(modelClass.get(arg2).isSelected()){
modelClass.get(arg2).setSelected(false);
}else{
modelClass.get(arg2).setSelected(true);
}
adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
}
});
}
}

Android Images in a gridView in wrong order

i have a problem with a image gridView.
I put all the images in an array, but when the grid is displayed the images aren’t in the order that I decided.
Here is my code taken from various tutorials.
The main activity:
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
android:text="Clicca sull'immagine per ingrandire"
android:id="#+id/textView2"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:textAlignment="center"
android:paddingBottom="10sp"
android:textColor="#color/white"
android:textSize="#dimen/text_size"/>
<GridView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/grid_view"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:numColumns="auto_fit"
android:columnWidth="300dp"
android:horizontalSpacing="10dp"
android:verticalSpacing="10dp"
android:gravity="center"
android:stretchMode="columnWidth" >
</GridView>

imageView.setImageResource(mThumbIds[position]);
imageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER_INSIDE);
imageView.setLayoutParams(new GridView.LayoutParams(350, 300));
} else {
imageView = (ImageView) convertView;
}
return imageView;
}
}
The gridView display the correct number of items, but the images are randomized.
I am new in android and in programming, and is possible that taking examples from various sources I put too much code.
Where did I go wrong?
Thanks and sorry for my English…

The problem is not in the order of images, the problem is in the way you work with convertView. even if it is not null you have to fill it, otherwise you will get a cached View for different position. So this code should solve the problem:
if (convertView == null) {
imageView = new ImageView(mContext);
imageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER_INSIDE);
imageView.setLayoutParams(new GridView.LayoutParams(350, 300));
} else {
imageView = (ImageView) convertView;
}
imageView.setImageResource(mThumbIds[position]);
return imageView;
And just for the future I would suggest you to read about ViewHolder patern

GridView items are not selectable in Fragment

Squonk is correct, you need to call optionsGridView.setAdapter(new OnItemClickListener....). You could also implement OnItemClickListener in your fragment and call optionsGridView.setAdapter(this).

Inside your PlaceholderFragment put this like below :
optionsGridView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
#Override
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position, long id) {
//do your stuff!
}
});

What is wrong with my code ( Gallery in Fragment )

I am new in android..
Can someone tell me what is wrong with my code? I am trying to make gallery in Fragment. When I install the apk file on the device, the program works but in that Fragment I see white screen instead of Gallery.Please help me :)
That is my Fragment class
package info.androidhive.fitnesslascalla;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;

import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener;
import android.widget.BaseAdapter;
import android.widget.Gallery;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class ForUsFragment extends Fragment{
public class MainActivity extends Activity
{
ImageView selectedImage;
private Integer[] mImageIds = {
R.drawable.car1,
R.drawable.car2,
R.drawable.car3,
R.drawable.car4,
R.drawable.car5,

R.drawable.car8
};
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup parent,
Bundle saedInstanceState) {
View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_for_us, parent, false);
//setContentView(R.layout.fragment_for_us);
Gallery gallery = (Gallery) findViewById(R.id.gallery1);
selectedImage=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.image1);
gallery.setSpacing(1);
gallery.setAdapter(new GalleryImageAdapter(this));
// clicklistener for Gallery
gallery.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View v, int position, long id) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Your selected position = " + position, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
// show the selected Image
selectedImage.setImageResource(mImageIds[position]);
}
});
return rootView;
}
}
public class GalleryImageAdapter extends BaseAdapter
{
private Context mContext;
private Integer[] mImageIds = {
R.drawable.car1,
R.drawable.car2,
R.drawable.car3,
R.drawable.car4,
R.drawable.car5,
R.drawable.car6,
R.drawable.car7,
R.drawable.car8
};
public GalleryImageAdapter(Context context)
{
mContext = context;
}
public int getCount() {
return mImageIds.length;
}
public Object getItem(int position) {
return position;
}
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}
// Override this method according to your need
public View getView(int index, View view, ViewGroup viewGroup)
{
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
ImageView i = new ImageView(mContext);
i.setImageResource(mImageIds[index]);
i.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(200, 200));
i.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
return i;
}
}
}
and that is my Layout for that fragment
<LinearLayout 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"

android:orientation="vertical" >
<Gallery
android:id="#+id/gallery1"

android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
<ImageView

android:layout_width="215dp"
android:layout_height="315dp"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:background="#cfcfcf"
android:paddingTop="5dp"
android:paddingBottom="5dp"
android:paddingLeft="10dp"
android:paddingRight="10dp"
android:src="#drawable/car1"
android:contentDescription="#null" />
</LinearLayout>

Problem with your Getview mathod
#Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
if (convertView == null) {

}
holder.imageView.setImageDrawable(plotsImages.get(position));

holder.imageView.setLayoutParams(new Gallery.LayoutParams(150, 90));
return imageView;
}

Items in HListView are not clickable using HorizontalListView

What I need is a Horizontal scrollable ListView that serves as a horizontally scrollable menu.
I searched for a solution and came up with the this library.
I am trying to implement it.sephiroth.android.library.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener on it.sephiroth.android.library.widget.HListView object in a DialogFragment.
I can get the list to populate but I can't seem to be able to attach listeners to the item.
I have been trying for 2 days to figure this out, but no game. This feature is still not working. So I turn to the old WWW for salvation..
This is my DialogFragment XML fragment_layout.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:background="#800000"
android:descendantFocusability="blocksDescendants" >
<it.sephiroth.android.library.widget.HListView
android:id="#+id/hlvPlacesListScrollMenu"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
android:scrollbars="none"
android:divider="#android:color/transparent"
/>
this is my viewitem.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#800000"
android:clickable="false"
android:focusable="false"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/ibScrollMenuImage"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#800000"
android:clickable="false"
android:focusable="false"
android:scaleType="centerCrop" />
<TextView
android:id="#+id/tvScrollMenuTitle"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:clickable="false"
android:focusable="false"
android:gravity="center_horizontal"
android:textColor="#f4f4f4" />
</LinearLayout>
This is my main_activity_layout
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="#+id/llDialogFragment"
android:layout_width="match_parent"

Pretty basic.
My MainActicity is :

}
#Override

final String[] IMAGE_TITLE = new String[] { "Home", "Work", "School",

}
#Override

MENU_IMAGES);
scroll = (HListView) rootView
.findViewById(R.id.hlvPlacesListScrollMenu);
scroll.setAdapter(mAdapter);
scroll.invalidate();
scroll.setOnItemClickListener(this);
for (int i = 0; i < scroll.getAdapter().getCount(); i++) {
Log.i(this.getClass().getSimpleName(), "first item in scroll : "

I hope one of you can see my blindspot.

Probably you are implementing the wrong OnItemClickListener.
Try to use
public class LifeStatsDialogFragment extends DialogFragment implements
it.sephiroth.android.library.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener {
//...
}

I would try 2 things:
Put the fragment in the xml layout in the first place, and avoid add in the onCreate.
What happens in the onItemClick? - its currently empty. Try using an independent onItemClickListener:
list.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
int position, long id) {
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT);
}
});
