Make sure you set the layout manager for your RecyclerView by     mRecyclerView setLayoutManager new LinearLayoutManager context      Instead of LinearLayoutManager  you can use other layout managers too

For those who use the RecyclerView within a fragment and inflate it from other views  when inflating the whole fragment view  make sure that you bind the RecyclerView to its root view    I was connecting and doing everything for the adapter correctly  but I never did the binding   This answer by  Prateek Agarwal has it all for me  but here is more elaboration   Kotlin      override fun onCreateView inflater  LayoutInflater   container  ViewGroup   savedInstanceState  Bundle    View         val rootView    inflater  inflate R layout fragment layout  container  false      recyclerView   rootView  findViewById R id recycler view id         rest of my stuff     recyclerView  setHasFixedSize true      recyclerView  layoutManager   viewManager     recyclerView  adapter   viewAdapter        return the root view     return rootView     Java     Override public View onCreateView LayoutInflater inflater  ViewGroup container  Bundle savedInstanceState         View rootView  inflater inflate R layout fragment layout container false       recyclerview  rootView findViewById R id recycler view id       return rootView

I was getting the same two error messages until I fixed two things in my code     1  By default  when you implement methods in the RecyclerView Adapter it generates    Override public int getItemCount         return 0      Make sure you update your code so it says    Override public int getItemCount         return artists size        Obviously if you have zero items in your items then you will get zero things displayed on the screen    2  I was not doing this as shown in the top answer  CardView layout width  quot match parent quot  does not match parent RecyclerView width    correct LayoutInflater from parent getContext                 inflate R layout card listitem  parent  false      incorrect  what I had  LayoutInflater from parent getContext             inflate R layout card listitem null      3  EDIT  BONUS  Also make sure you set up your RecyclerView like this    lt android support v7 widget RecyclerView     android id    id RecyclerView      android layout width  match parent      android layout height  match parent        gt    NOT like this    lt view     android id    id RecyclerView      class  android support v7 widget RecyclerView      android layout width  match parent      android layout height  match parent    gt    I have seen some tutorials using the latter method  While it works I think it generates this error too

This is really a simple error you are getting  there in no need of doing any codes in this  This error occurs due to the wrong layout file used by the activity   By IDE i automatically created a layout v21 of a layout which became a default layout of the activity  all codes I did in the old layout file and new one was only having few xml codes  which led to that error   Solution  Copy all codes of old layout and paste in layout v 21

1  Create ViewHolder that does nothing        SampleHolder java public class SampleHolder extends RecyclerView ViewHolder       public SampleHolder View itemView            super itemView               2  Again create RecyclerView that does nothing        SampleRecycler java public class SampleRecycler extends RecyclerView Adapter lt SampleHolder gt         Override     public SampleHolder onCreateViewHolder ViewGroup parent  int viewType            return null              Override     public void onBindViewHolder SampleHolder holder  int position                 Override     public int getItemCount             return 0              3  Now when your real recycler is not ready just use the sample one like below   RecyclerView myRecycler    RecyclerView  findViewById R id recycler id   myRecycler setLayoutManager new LinearLayoutManager this    myRecycler setAdapter new SampleRecycler         This is not best solution though but it works  Hope this is helpful

This happens because the actual inflated layout is different from that which is being referred by you while finding the recyclerView  By default when you create the fragment  the onCreateView method appears as follows  return inflater inflate R layout  lt related layout gt  container false    Instead of that  separately create the view and use that to refer to recyclerView View view  inflater inflate R layout  lt related layout gt  container false   recyclerview view findViewById R id  lt recyclerView ID gt    return view

ArtistArrayAdapter adapter   new ArtistArrayAdapter this  artists   recyclerView    RecyclerView  findViewById R id cardList   recyclerView setHasFixedSize true   recyclerView setLayoutManager new LinearLayoutManager this    recyclerView setAdapter adapter     Just replace above code with this and it should work  What you did wrong is you called setAdapter adapter  before calling layout manager

i have this problem   a few time problem is recycleView put in ScrollView object  After checking implementation  the reason appears to be the following  If RecyclerView gets put into a ScrollView  then during measure step its height is unspecified  because ScrollView allows any height  and  as a result  gets equal to minimum height  as per implementation  which is apparently zero   You have couple of options for fixing this    Set a certain height to RecyclerView Set ScrollView fillViewport to true Or keep RecyclerView outside of ScrollView  In my opinion  this is the best option by far  If RecyclerView height is not limited - which is the case when it s put into ScrollView - then all Adapter s views have enough place vertically and get created all at once  There is no view recycling anymore which kinda breaks the purpose of RecyclerView      Can be followed for android support v4 widget NestedScrollView as well

Can you make sure that you are calling these statements from the  quot main quot  thread outside of a delayed asynchronous callback  for example inside the onCreate   method   As soon as I call the same statements from a  quot delayed quot  method  In my case a ResultCallback  I get the same message  In my Fragment  calling the code below from inside a ResultCallback method produces the same message  After moving the code to the onConnected   method within my app  the message was gone    LinearLayoutManager llm   new LinearLayoutManager this   llm setOrientation LinearLayoutManager VERTICAL   list setLayoutManager llm   list setAdapter  adapter

This issue is because you are not adding any LayoutManager for your RecyclerView    Another reason is because you are calling this code in a NonUIThread  Make sure to call this call in the UIThread   The solution is only you have to add a LayoutManager for the RecyclerView before you setAdapter in the UI Thread   recyclerView setLayoutManager new LinearLayoutManager getContext
