i made this solution, maybe is not the best one, but does the work...

//initialize control string
private String control_input = " ";

then =

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

    View gridview = convertView;

    // change input_array for the array you use
    if (!control_input.equals(input_array[position])) {
        control_input = input_array[position];
