            @Override
            public void onCompleted(List<GraphUser> users, Response response) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                for(int i=0; i<users.size();i++)
                {
                GraphUser user =    users.get(i);
                Friend objFriend = new Friend();
                objFriend.setFriendID(user.getId());
                objFriend.setFriendName(user.getName());
                //objFriend.setFriendPic(user.g)
                //objFriend.setFriendPic("http://graph.facebook.com/" + objFriend.getFriendID() + "/picture");
                friendsList.add(objFriend);
                Log.d("Friend's Id", objFriend.getFriendID());
                Log.d("Friend's Name", objFriend.getFriendName());
                //Log.d("Friend's Pic", objFriend.getFriendPic());
                Log.d("Friend's List Count", Integer.toString(friendsList.size()));
                }
            }
        });
        Request.executeBatchAsync(request);
        return friendsList;
}

and here is my onCreate function:

@Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.friends_list);
        list = (ListView)findViewById(R.id.listview_friends);
        friendsList = getFriendList();
        friendAdapter = new FriendAdapter(this, R.layout.activity_friends, friendsList);
        list.setAdapter(friendAdapter);
    }

here is my custom adapter code:

public class FriendAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<Friend>
    {
        Context context;
        Friends holder;
        int layoutResourceId;
        List<Friend> friendList;
        Bitmap profilePhoto;

        public FriendAdapter(Context context, int layoutResourceId,List<Friend> friendList)
        {
            super(context, layoutResourceId, friendList);           
            this.context=context;
            this.layoutResourceId=layoutResourceId;
            this.friendList=friendList;
        }


        @Override
        public View getView(int position,View convertView,ViewGroup parent)
        {
            View row=convertView;

            if(row==null)
            {
                LayoutInflater inflater=((Activity)context).getLayoutInflater();
                row=inflater.inflate(layoutResourceId, parent,false);

                holder=new Friends();
                //holder.friendProfilePic=(ImageView)row.findViewById(R.id.ImageViewfriendProfilePic);
                holder.friendName = (TextView)row.findViewById(R.id.textViewFriendsName);

                row.setTag(holder);
            }
            else
            {
                holder=(Friends)row.getTag();
            }
//      
            holder.friendName.setText(friendList.get(position).getFriendName());
            //holder.friendProfilePic.setImageBitmap(profilePhoto);

            return row;
        }

here is my xml layout friends_list.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/listview_friends"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" >
    </ListView>

</LinearLayout>

and here is activity_friends.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <RelativeLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

        <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/ImageViewfriendProfilePic"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginLeft="10dip"
        android:src="@drawable/com_facebook_button_grey_focused" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textViewFriendsName"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginLeft="100dip"
        android:layout_marginTop="20dip"
        android:text="TextView" />
    </RelativeLayout>



</LinearLayout>

Answer 1

Don't use list this way.

friendsList = getFriendList();

As the request was send and you got the result it may take time so declare your list object like this way

List<Friends> friendList = new ArrayList<Friends>();

just pass this array list as empty in adapter and set the adapter to the list

friendAdapter = new FriendAdapter(this, R.layout.activity_friends, friendsList);
list.setAdapter(friendAdapter);

now use the AsyncTask class to get the data from web in background so the UI was not stop and it'll be fetched in background

UPDATED

AsyncTask FetchFriendList = new AsyncTask<Void,Void,Void>(){
    private List<Friends> list;
    public void doInBackground(Void... param){
         list = getFriendList(); // call here your request
    }

    public void onPostExecution(Void result){
           friendList.addAll(list);
           friendAdapter.notifyDatasetChanged();

    }
};

call this in onCreate after adapter set

FetchFriendList ffl = new FetchFriendList();
ffl.execute();

One more thing when you add/edit/delete item in list you must call notifyDatasetChanged(); and don't too much add/delete within UI it may force close with large data
