Android Checkable Menu Item

Question

I have the following menu layout in my Android app:

Answer 1

I've found that the best solution was to just use the onOptionsItemSelected() method as of my current API (27-28).

@Override
   public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) 
   {    

//Copy from here...
       int itemId = item.getItemId();

       if(item.isChecked())                          
       { 
           if(R.id.edit_tile_checkbox == itemId)     //Individual checkbox logic
           {   /*TODO unchecked Action*/} 
           item.setChecked(false);                   //Toggles checkbox state.
       }
       else
       {
            if(R.id.edit_tile_checkbox == itemId)    //Individual checkbox logic
            {/*TODO checked Action*/}
            item.setChecked(true);                   //Toggles checkbox state.
       }
//...To here in to your onOptionsItemSelected() method, then make sure your variables are all sweet.

       return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
   }

I spent way to long on here for this answer. and for whatever reason, the answers above didn't help (I'm a returning newbie I probably mucked something up I'm sure). There could be a better way of doing this so helpful criticism is welcomed.
