I fairly new to programming for the Android platform and have some question about howto add a search box and fastscroll to the listview of my app.
I have used the code of Jeff Sharkey to add a listview with headers to my app.
This is working great but I like to have a searchbox add the top and fastscroll enabled, I have tried some tutorials on this but I can't get it to work.
And how can I get the clicked item? I used setOnItemClickListener but this isn't working.
Can anybody help me out please?
Thx, Daniël
Try using MergeAdapter by Mark Murphy

It allows you to addViews not just text as in case of Jeff Sharkey's version. So you can add your buttons as views in between and still use a single list.
Hope it helps !!!

I am totally a beginner in android development and want to make a ListView fully customized like this, but don't understand where to start. So a help would be a big push for me.
please add source code if u can. Thank You.
Have a look at these tutorials

Im new to android and making a listview with overscroll option, my idea is pull the listview to refresh it , first of all i need to learn how to make a listview overscroll without any items in it.
Please give me some solutions , yes ofcourse ive googled about my problem however there were libraries given ,
I just only wanted to understand how and make my own listview , i dont wanna copy any library thats all.
Thank you !
You can try this code from here
or
You can directly download the source code from git hub
You need to include this class PullToRefreshListView extends ListView
Then you need to add that in xml .PullToRefreshListView
I would like to ask you for some references or source code where I can find out how to make an entry animation when a new item is showed in a ListView, just like google+ does it.
I only have found this.
Thanks in advance.
There's a library by Niek Haarman that does this for you. Check this out: ListView Animations
I have to make a custom list view with custom header, ( different text in each headers) and different number of items below each header. I have been going through various section indexing examples but I think they are not relevant much to my answer.
Anybody please suggest me a good means to move around such type of list view in android.
This might be a duplicate of Android Listview with sections
There are lots of different ones out there. One example is: http://w2davids.wordpress.com/android-sectioned-headers-in-listviews which uses: http://jsharkey.org/blog/2008/08/18/separating-lists-with-headers-in-android-09
That one allows you to pass in different array adapters for each section so that you can have different layouts for each section's items.
If you were more clear about what the ones you have seen fail to do that you need it would be easier to offer you something you haven't seen.
There has been lot of thread exists on the Stackoverflow, check:
Android Listview with sections
Android ListView section header
How to draw a section header in Android listview just like the Contacts app did ？
But I am not sure these threads has helpful info, but if you want to read, understand and implement ListView with sections then here is one of the great and detailed article given by Cyril: ListView Tips & Tricks #2: Sectioning Your ListView
For a more complex design with sections in list, you should try this very standard library : https://github.com/emilsjolander/StickyListHeaders.
Other alternatives mentionned are great.
I should mention that the only drawback of this library is a poor mavenization and its absence on central.
Try this tutorial..its very nice and simple
http://www.androidhive.info/2013/07/android-expandable-list-view-tutorial/
There's a very good library for this. I've used in a project or 2 myself. Check it out:
https://code.google.com/p/android-amazing-listview/
Why can't you use expandable list view?

I am pretty new to android and I have a good iphone background. I need to know whether it is possible to have a expandablelistview inside a listview ?. If yes please let me know how to do that.
I need to know whether it is possible to have a expandablelistview inside a listview ?
No, sorry. You cannot generally put scrollable things inside of other scrollable things, at least when they scroll in the same direction, as they fight over the touch events.
There is an expandable listview demo in sdk for each version of android. It should be in a location like
E:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\samples\android-8\ApiDemos
Create a project from existing source in eclipse and you can check its source to understand how it works.
