Inconsistency detected in RecyclerView, How to change contents of RecyclerView while scrolling

Question

I\'m using RecyclerView to display name of the items. My row contains single TextView. Item names are stored in List mItemList<

Answer 1

The problem is definitely not because of recyclerview scrolling, but it is related to notifyDataSetChanged(). I had a recycler view in which i was constantly changing data i.e. adding and removing data. I was calling notifyDataSetChanged() everytime I was adding items to my list, But was not refreshing the adapter whenever the item is being removed or the list was cleared.

So to fix the :

java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Inconsistency detected. Invalid item position 2(offset:2).state:12 at android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView$Recycler.tryGetViewHolderForPositionByDeadline(RecyclerView.java:5456)

I called adapter.notifyDataSetChanged() after list.clear(), wherever it was required.

if (!myList.isEmpty()) {
        myList.clear();
        myListAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
    }

Since then, I never encountered the exception. Hope it works out the same for others as well. :)
