Question

I have a list view with checkboxes and I want that when user selects any check box and closes the application, and again opens the application, the same checkboxes should be

Answer 1

Declare a boolean array to record the checked state (in the setOnCheckedChangeListener()) for each position item, then call setChecked() after setOnCheckedChangeListener(). Just that simple.

Answer 2

Your code is almost right. Just need to do some changes...

Check My code of setOnCheckedChangeListener for checkbox.. I hope it will work

public class MyCustomBaseAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
    private static ArrayList<SearchResults> searchArrayList;
    ViewHolder holder;
    private LayoutInflater mInflater;
    Editor editor;
    Context context;

    public MyCustomBaseAdapter(Context context, ArrayList<SearchResults> results) {
        searchArrayList = results;
        mInflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
    }

    public int getCount() {
        return searchArrayList.size();

    }

    public Object getItem(int position) {
        return searchArrayList.get(position);
    }

    public long getItemId(int position) {
        return position;
    }

    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) 
    {
        SharedPreferences sharedPrefs = context.getSharedPreferences("sharedPrefs", Context.MODE_PRIVATE);


        if (convertView == null) {
            convertView = mInflater.inflate(R.layout.custom_row_view, null);
            holder = new ViewHolder();
            holder.txtName = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.name);
            holder.cB = (CheckBox)convertView.findViewById(R.id.cb_category);

            convertView.setTag(holder);
        } 
        else {
            holder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
        }


        editor = sharedPrefs.edit();

        holder.txtName.setText(searchArrayList.get(position).getName());

        holder.cB.setChecked(sharedPrefs.getBoolean("CheckValue"+position, false));
       holder.cB.setOnCheckedChangeListener(new OnCheckedChangeListener() {
       @Override
       public void onCheckedChanged(CompoundButton buttonView, boolean isChecked) {
       editor.putBoolean("CheckValue"+position, isChecked);
       editor.commit();
       }});
        return convertView;
    }


    static class ViewHolder {
        TextView txtName;
        CheckBox cB;
    }

}
