how to know when listview is finished loading data on android [duplicate]

Answer 1

You can use a Handler to accomplish this task, like this:

In your activity add the Handler as any other property.

private Handler mListViewDidLoadHanlder = new Handler(new Handler.Callback() { 
    @Override
    public boolean handleMessage(Message message) {
        //Do whatever you need here the listview is loaded
        return false;
    }
});

And inside the getView method of your listview you do the comparison to see if the current position is the last one , so , it will finish (just put it before the return):

public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
         //Your views logic here

         if (position == mObjects.size() - 1) {
                mViewDidLoadHanlder.sendEmptyMessage(0);
            }

         return convertView;
     }
