How to get view for an item in listview in android?

Question

Is it possible to get an item view based on its position in the adapter and not in the visible views in the ListView?

I am aware of functions like getChildAt() and g

Here, Its very short described code, you can simple re-use viewholder pattern to increase listview performance Write below code in your getview() method

ViewHolder holder = new ViewHolder();
    if (convertView == null) {
        convertView = layoutInflater.inflate(R.layout.skateparklist, null);
        holder = new ViewHolder();

        holder.headlineView = (TextView) convertView
                .findViewById(R.id.textView1);
        holder.DistanceView = (TextView) convertView
                .findViewById(R.id.textView2);
        holder.imgview = (NetworkImageView) convertView
                .findViewById(R.id.imgSkatepark);
        convertView.setTag(holder); //PLEASE PASS HOLDER AS OBJECT PARAM  , CAUSE YOU CAN NOY PASS POSITION IT WILL BE CONFLICT Holder and Integer can not cast 
        //BECAUSE WE NEED TO REUSE CREATED HOLDER 
    } else {
        holder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
    }

// your controls/UI setup 
    holder.DistanceView.setText(strDistance); 
    ......
   return convertview
