Values of counter changes after scrolling ExpendableListView

Question

I have an ExpandableListView of items and on list item I have TextView with two buttons to increment or decrements the value in TextView on clicks. The problem occurs every

Answer 1

It is not a good idea to store quantity in ViewHolder. Hope below sample helps :)

MainActivity.java:

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

Button clearChecks, putOrder;
ExpandableListView expandableListView;
ExpandableListViewAdapter expandableListAdapter;
int lastExpandedPosition = -1;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    expandableListView = findViewById(R.id.expandedListView);
    clearChecks = findViewById(R.id.btnClearChecks);
    putOrder = findViewById(R.id.btnPutOrder);

    List<String> listTitle = genGroupList();
    expandableListAdapter = new ExpandableListViewAdapter(this, listTitle, genChildList(listTitle));
    expandableListView.setAdapter(expandableListAdapter);

    expandableListView.setOnGroupExpandListener(new ExpandableListView.OnGroupExpandListener() {
        @Override
        public void onGroupExpand(int groupPosition) {
            if(lastExpandedPosition != -1 && (lastExpandedPosition != groupPosition)){
                expandableListView.collapseGroup(lastExpandedPosition);
            }
            lastExpandedPosition = groupPosition;
        }
    });
    clearChecks.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            expandableListAdapter.clearChecks();
        }

Try this adapter:
