How to save and restore ListView position in Android

Answer 1

In listView.setOnItemClickListener, use the saveLastPosition method. And after listview.setAdapter(adapter);call the getLastPosition method

public void saveLastPosition(){
    int position=listView.getLastVisiblePosition();

    SharedPreferences pref=PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);    
    SharedPreferences.Editor editor=pref.edit();
    editor.putInt("lastPosition",position);   
    editor.apply();
}

public void getLastPosition(){
    int position=listView.getLastVisiblePosition();

    SharedPreferences pref=PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(this);      
    int lastPosition=pref.getInt("lastPosition",position);
    listView.setSelection(lastPosition);
}
