User · Answer

In my case every time when I call notifyItemRemoved 0   it crashed  Turned out that I set setHasStableIds true  and in getItemId I just returned the item position   I ended out updating it to return the item s hashCode   or self-defined unique id  which solved the issue

User · Answer

The error can be caused by your changes being inconsistent with what you are notifying  In my case   myList set position  newItem   notifyItemInserted position     What I of course had to do   myList add position  newItem   notifyItemInserted position

User · Answer

I had the same problem   It was caused because I delayed notification for adapter about item insert   But ViewHolder tried to redraw some data in it s view and it started the RecyclerView measuring and recounting children count - at that moment it crashed  items list and it s size was already updated  but the adapter was not notified yet

User · Answer

This happens when you specify the incorrect position for the notifyItemChanged    notifyItemRangeInserted etc For me    Before    Erroneous   public void addData List lt ChannelItem gt  list      int initialSize   list size      mChannelItemList addAll list     notifyItemRangeChanged initialSize - 1  mChannelItemList size           After    Correct    public void addData List lt ChannelItem gt  list      int initialSize   mChannelItemList size      mChannelItemList addAll list     notifyItemRangeInserted initialSize  mChannelItemList size  -1     Correct position

I faced this issue once  and I solved this by wrapping the LayoutManager and disabling predictive animations   Here an example   public class LinearLayoutManagerWrapper extends LinearLayoutManager      public LinearLayoutManagerWrapper Context context        super context          public LinearLayoutManagerWrapper Context context  int orientation  boolean reverseLayout        super context  orientation  reverseLayout          public LinearLayoutManagerWrapper Context context  AttributeSet attrs  int defStyleAttr  int defStyleRes        super context  attrs  defStyleAttr  defStyleRes           Override   public boolean supportsPredictiveItemAnimations         return false          And set it to RecyclerView   RecyclerView LayoutManager mLayoutManager   new LinearLayoutManagerWrapper context  LinearLayoutManager VERTICAL  false

User · Answer

another reason this problem happens is when you call these methods with wrong indexes  indexes which there has NOT happened insert or remove in them   -notifyItemRangeRemoved   -notifyItemRemoved  -notifyItemRangeInserted  -notifyItemInserted  check indexe parameters to these methods and make sure they are precise and correct

User · Answer

I am using a Cursor so I can not use the DiffUtils as proposed in the popular answers  In order to make it work for me I am disabling animations when the list is not idle  This is the extension that fixes this issue     fun RecyclerView executeSafely func      - gt  Unit            if  scrollState    RecyclerView SCROLL STATE IDLE                val animator   itemAnimator             itemAnimator   null             func               itemAnimator   animator           else               func                     Then you can update your adapter like that  list executeSafely     adapter updateICursor newCursor

This problem is caused by RecyclerView Data modified in different thread  The best way is checking all data access  And a workaround is wrapping LinearLayoutManager   Previous answer  There was actually a bug in RecyclerView and the support 23 1 1 still not fixed    For a workaround  notice that backtrace stacks  if we can catch this Exception in one of some class it may skip this crash  For me  I create a LinearLayoutManagerWrapper and override the onLayoutChildren   public class WrapContentLinearLayoutManager extends LinearLayoutManager             constructor      Override     public void onLayoutChildren RecyclerView Recycler recycler  RecyclerView State state            try               super onLayoutChildren recycler  state             catch  IndexOutOfBoundsException e                Log e  TAG    meet a IOOBE in RecyclerView                        Then set it to RecyclerView   RecyclerView recyclerView    RecyclerView findViewById R id recycler view    recyclerView setLayoutManager new WrapContentLinearLayoutManager activity  LinearLayoutManager HORIZONTAL  false      Actually catch this exception  and seems no any side-effect yet    Also  if you use GridLayoutManager or StaggeredGridLayoutManager you must create a wrapper for it   Notice  The RecyclerView may be in a wrong internal state

User · Answer

New answer  Use DiffUtil for all RecyclerView updates  This will help with both performance and the bug above   See Here  Previous answer  This worked for me  The key is to not use notifyDataSetChanged   and to do the right things in the correct order   public void setItems ArrayList lt Article gt  newArticles          get the current items     int currentSize   articles size          remove the current items     articles clear          add all the new items     articles addAll newArticles         tell the recycler view that all the old items are gone     notifyItemRangeRemoved 0  currentSize         tell the recycler view how many new items we added     notifyItemRangeInserted 0  newArticles size

User · Answer

This problem is caused by RecyclerView Data modified in different   thread   Can confirm threading as one problem and since I ran into the issue and RxJava is becoming increasingly popular  make sure that you are using  observeOn AndroidSchedulers mainThread    whenever you re calling notify whatever changed    code example from adapter   myAuxDataStructure getChangeObservable   observeOn AndroidSchedulers mainThread    subscribe new Observer lt AuxDataStructure gt                       Override     public void onNext AuxDataStructure o             notify here

In my case I was changing the data previously inside a thread with mRecyclerView post new Runnable     and then again later changed data in the UI thread  which caused inconsistency

User · Answer

In my case  I was getting this problem because of getting data updates from server  I am using Firebase Firestore  and while the first set of data is being processed by DiffUtil in the background  another set of data update comes and causes a concurrency issue by starting another DiffUtil    In short  if you are using DiffUtil on a Background thread which then comes back to the Main Thread to dispatch the results to the RecylerView  then you run the chance of getting this error when multiple data updates come in short time   I solved this by following the advice in this wonderful explanation  https   medium com  jonfhancock get-threading-right-with-diffutil-423378e126d2  Just to explain the solution is to push the updates while the current one is running to a Deque  The deque can then run the pending updates once the current one finishes  hence handling all subsequent updates but avoiding inconsistency errors as well   Hope this helps because this one made me scratch my head

This is an example for refreshing data with completely new content  You can easily modify it to fit your needs  I solved this in my case by calling   notifyItemRangeRemoved 0  previousContentSize     before   notifyItemRangeInserted 0  newContentSize     This is the correct solution and is also mentioned in this post by an AOSP project member

I got this error because I was mistakenly calling a method to remove a specific row from my recyclerview multiple times  I had a method like   void removeFriends         final int loc   data indexOf friendsView       data remove friendsView       notifyItemRemoved loc       I was accidentally calling this method three times instead of once  so the second time loc was -1 and the error was given when it tried to remove it  The two fixes were to ensure the method was only called once  and also to add a sanity check like this   void removeFriends         final int loc   data indexOf friendsView       if  loc  gt  -1            data remove friendsView           notifyItemRemoved loc

Reasons caused this issue    An internal issue in Recycler when item animations are enabled Modification on Recycler data in another thread Calling notify methods in a wrong way   SOLUTION   -----------------SOLUTION 1---------------   Catching the exception  Not recommended especially for reason  3    Create a custom LinearLayoutManager as the following and set it to the ReyclerView      public class CustomLinearLayoutManager extends LinearLayoutManager                  Generate constructors               Override             public void onLayoutChildren RecyclerView Recycler recycler  RecyclerView State state                     try                        super onLayoutChildren recycler  state                      catch  IndexOutOfBoundsException e                         Log e TAG   Inconsistency detected                                                 Then set RecyclerVIew Layout Manager as follow   recyclerView setLayoutManager new CustomLinearLayoutManager activity      -----------------SOLUTION 2---------------   Disable item animations  fixes the issue if it caused de to reason  1     Again  create a custom Linear Layout Manager as follow       public class CustomLinearLayoutManager extends LinearLayoutManager                  Generate constructors                Override              public boolean supportsPredictiveItemAnimations                      return false                             Then set RecyclerVIew Layout Manager as follow   recyclerView setLayoutManager new CustomLinearLayoutManager activity      -----------------SOLUTION 3---------------   This solution fixes the issue if it caused by reason  3  You need to make sure that you are using the notify methods in the correct way  Alternatively  use DiffUtil to handle the change in a smart  easy  and smooth way  Using DiffUtil in Android RecyclerView   -----------------SOLUTION 4---------------   For reason  2  you need to check all data access to recycler list and make sure that there is no modification on another thread

I ran into the same problem when I have both removed and updated items in the list    After days of investigating I think I finally found a solution   What you need to do is first do all the notifyItemChanged of your list and only then do all the notifyItemRemoved in a descending order  I hope this will help people that are running into the same issue

User · Answer

If your data changes a lot  you can use   mAdapter notifyItemRangeChanged 0  yourData size       or some single items in your data set changes  your can use   mAdapter notifyItemChanged pos     For detailed methods usage  you can refer the doc  in a way  try not to directly use mAdapter notifyDataSetChanged

Problem occured for me only when   I created the Adapter with an empty list  Then I inserted items and called notifyItemRangeInserted   Solution   I solved this by creating the Adapter only after I have the first chunk of data and initialzing it with it right away  The next chunk could then be inserted and notifyItemRangeInserted called with no problem

According to this issue  the problem has been resolved and was likely released some time near the beginning of 2015  A quote from that same thread   It is specifically related to calling notifyDataSetChanged        Btw  I strongly advice not using notifyDataSetChanged because it kills animations and performance  Also for this case  using specific notify events will work around the issue   If you are still having issues with a recent version of the support library  I would suggest reviewing your calls to notifyXXX  specifically  your use of notifyDataSetChanged  inside your adapter  to make sure you are adhering to the  somewhat delicate obscure  RecyclerView Adapter contract  Also be sure to issue those notifications on the main thread
