Answer 1

I use a lock to achieve that effect now im wondering if its correct my way anyone want to comment ?

// as a field of the class where i wan't to do the synchronous `volley` call   
Object mLock = new Object();


// need to have the error and success listeners notifyin
final boolean[] finished = {false};
            Response.Listener> responseListener = new Response.Listener>() {
                @Override
                public void onResponse(ArrayList response) {
                    synchronized (mLock) {
                        System.out.println();
                        finished[0] = true;
                        mLock.notify();

                    }


                }
            };

            Response.ErrorListener errorListener = new Response.ErrorListener() {
                @Override
                public void onErrorResponse(VolleyError error) {
                    synchronized (mLock) {
                        System.out.println();
                        finished[0] = true;
                        System.out.println();
                        mLock.notify();
                    }
                }
            };

// after adding the Request to the volley queue
synchronized (mLock) {
            try {
                while(!finished[0]) {
                    mLock.wait();
                }
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
