Answer 1

Check out this sample code that demonstrates the feature. It's a RecyclerView that calls notifyItemChanged(position, payload) when the item at position position is clicked. You can verify that onBindViewHolder(holder, position, payload) was called by looking for the logcat statement.

Make sure you are using at least version 23.1.1 of the support libraries, like so:

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.1.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:23.1.1'
}
