RecyclerView crashes when “scrapped or attached views may not be recycled”

Question

I\'m using a simple implementation of RecyclerView taken from the Android website using a StaggeredGridLayoutManager and I keep getting this error

Answer 1

This error is caused if in your XML you have android:animateLayoutChanges set to true and you call notifyDataSetChanged() on the RecyclerView's adapter in the Java code.

So, just avoid using android:animateLayoutChanges with RecyclerViews.
