I am not able to answer your "Why" question but i definitely have a solution to the problem of the irritating "ListView items repeating" problem(if you have items in ur collection which are more than the screen height).

As many people above have mentioned, keep the android:layout_height property of the ListVew tag as fill_parent.

And about the getView() function, the solution is to use a static class called ViewHolder. Check out this example. It successfully does the task of adding all the items in ur Array or ArrayCollection.

Hope this helps friends!!
