Answer 1

You can't scroll to position without having set the adapter first. Set your adapter first, even if your list is empty. Update your list when you get the data. Then call adapter.notifydatasetchanged() method. You can then scroll to the last position. Let me know if this answers your question or if I have to put an answer – mmmcho
