RecyclerView not scrolling to the bottom

Question

I followed the recyclerview guidelines and built one for the app I am making, but it does not scroll to the bottom for some reason. I compared it with google code snippets, as well as other code snippets online and can't see the difference. I have posted a picture and the code I am using. I am using tabs, therefore the recyclerview is populated in a fragment.

What the app looks like:

the adapter class:

public class MyAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<MyAdapter.ViewHolder> {
private List<Group> groups;

// Provide a reference to the views for each data item
// Complex data items may need more than one view per item, and
// you provide access to all the views for a data item in a view holder
public class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
    // each data item is just a string in this case
    public TextView groupName;
    public TextView groupDate;
    public TextView groupLocation;
    public TextView className;

    public ViewHolder(View v) {
        super(v);
        groupName = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.groupName);
        groupDate = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.groupDate);
        groupLocation = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.groupLocation);
        className = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.className);
    }
}

/*
 * TODO: finish this method
 */
public void add(int position, String item) {

    notifyItemInserted(position);
}

public void remove(String item) {
    int position = groups.indexOf(item);
    groups.remove(position);
    notifyItemRemoved(position);
}

// Provide a suitable constructor (depends on the kind of dataset)
public MyAdapter(List<Group> groupsList) {
    groups = groupsList;
    Log.d("TEST", "Number of Groups: " +
            Integer.toString(groups.size()));
}

// Create new views (invoked by the layout manager)
@Override
public MyAdapter.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent,
                                               int viewType) {
    // create a new view
    View v = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.group_view, parent, false);
    // set the view's size, margins, paddings and layout parameters
    ViewHolder vh = new ViewHolder(v);
    return vh;
}

// Replace the contents of a view (invoked by the layout manager)
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
    // - get element from your dataset at this position
    // - replace the contents of the view with that element
    final Group group = groups.get(position);
//      holder.groupName.setText(group.getName());
    holder.groupName.setText(group.getName());
    holder.groupDate.setText(group.getFormattedDate());
    holder.groupLocation.setText(group.getLocation());
    holder.className.setText(group.getParent().getName());
}

// Return the size of your dataset (invoked by the layout manager)
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
    return groups.size();
}

}

The Fragment class:

public class groupsFragment extends Fragment implements GroupLeaver, GroupRetriever {
private RecyclerView rv;
private List<Group> groups;
private ProgressDialog progressDialog;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstance){
    super.onCreate(savedInstance);
    Log.d("TEST", "Entered onCreate");
}

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    AppMain.getController().retrieveGroups(groupsFragment.this);
    Log.d("TEST", "Entered onCreateView");
    View rootView =  inflater.inflate(R.layout.groups_fragment, container, false);

    rv = (RecyclerView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.recyclerView);

    rv.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity()));

    Log.d("TEST", "Size of LIST: " + Integer.toString(groups.size()));
    MyAdapter adapter = new MyAdapter(groups);
    rv.setAdapter(adapter);

    return rootView;
}

@Override
public void onMyGroupsFound(List<Group> groups) {
    Log.d("TEST", "Entered onMyGroupsFound");
    Logg.info(this.getClass(), "Found %d groups for member %s", groups.size(), User.getCurrentUser().getDisplayName());
    this.groups = groups;
}

@Override
public void onGroupLeft(Group oldGroup) {

}

@Override
public void onGroupLeftFailed(Group group, ParseException e) {

}
}

The xml layout for the recyclerview:

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

<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
    android:id="@+id/recyclerView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:divider="@null"/>

</FrameLayout>

The xml layout for the recyclerview items:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<FrameLayout

android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_weight="3"

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/groupName"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Group Name"
            />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/groupDate"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Group Date"
            />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/groupLocation"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Group Location"
            />
    </LinearLayout>

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"

        <TextView

            android:gravity="right"
            android:text="Class Name"
            />
    </LinearLayout>

</LinearLayout>
</FrameLayout>

Answer 1

You can use these lines to scroll recyclerview to:

list.add(0, group);
adapter.notifyItemInserted(0);
recyclerview.scrollToPosition(0);

Answer 2

Thanks to everyone who responded, but turns out the problem was the version of RecyclerView I was compiling.

Previously I was compiling this

compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:22.0.0'

But I changed it to this and it worked

compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:22.2.0'
