Is there a way to jump to a specific item in a listview

http://stackoverflow.com – I am in the process of developing a lengthy list view that is created from a JSON array coming from my server. When an item is selected it could be anywhere in the list and when I return I want to jump back to that specific item. I was thinking about the setSelection(position) structure but I was curious as to how the position variable is set. Does it need to come from the JSON string or is it a variable that is created while the list view is being filled. If it is created what is the syntax of retrieving it so I can pass it to the Activity in charge of displaying more data and then back to (HowTos)

I have a custom adapter for my list view (extends ArrayAdapter). The list loads fine. However, when I click on an item in my list, i.e. the 5th item in the list, the position in getView is always 0 instead of 5. It crashes because convertView is no longer null If it is 0, the headervariable should be initialized to the R.id.listHeaderTv TextView, but it can't find it and ends up being null.

How can I create a list view, in which clicking on each list item will open the detail of list item and again clicking on list item will hide the detail list item. Like folding and unfolding of list item data. Like in google playstore, clicking on more for description of any app displays details of list item again clicking on less wraps up the list item. Any idea to create this type of list vew.

Any ideas how I can extract an image from a JSON object and pass to another Activity via intent to another object?

I have a ListView filled with items. I'd like to set an onClickListener to show details about the item that was clicked. How can I determine which item was clicked within the onClickListener?

I have created an activity which contains product id and product name as list items. Each row contains an edittext which can be used to enter quantity for a particular product.

I have a listView with a custom adapter. I've made the listView item's background change color when selected. This works perfectly on Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4 on Samsung Galaxy S2 and on ICS 4.0.3 on emulator. But it does not work on 4.2.2 JellyBean emulator.

Well I want to highlight the view so the user can see which item it have selected. I tried like this:

View.setBackground(COLOR.RED);

Inside listView on item click listener and it works, but if the list get scrolled random views start changing backgrounds.

My ListViewis appearing great, it is loading news from a server and placing them in a ListView. So all i wanted to do is making the very latest new in another color but that's not working by checking: if(position==0) because NOT ONLY the 1st item is having the layout modified to to my chosen color, but the 3rd item too is having the layout changed. I don't know why the 3rd.

I'm using a ListView to display a list of items. I tap on one item to 'select' it, and that item briefly turns orange in the list, but then returns to the background color.

How can I cause the item to stay 'lit' until I unselect it (by tapping the item again)?

Also, can I call a method that will clear all selected items for that list?
