The content of the adapter has changed but ListView did not receive a notification - With AsyncTask

I am using AsyncTask to set my items and stuff, in the postExecute i call a synchronized Method where i do this

mAllResultsAdapter.setItems(mAllResultsItem);
mAllResultsAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
mListView.invalidate();
mListView.requestLayout();

Most of the time if I dowload new data and update my listview/adapter it simply works, and pretty good to. But somehow it crashes sometime, can anyone assist me with this issue.

heres my crash log.

        } catch (ClientProtocolException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (JSONException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return true;
    }
}
}

The reason for the Syncronized method was just for trying to get the adapter and the listview the update the same time.

According to the code snippet, there are some methods (bindResources() and bindListeners() and etc.) marked as @Override which are neither inherited from the official API nor explicitly called in AllResultsActivity. Assume these are properly implemented and involved in super class or somewhere else. The problem I see in your code is:

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  ... ...

  loadItems(apiKey); // <-- method start AsyncTask, and finially involve mAllResultsAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
  initListview(); // <-- method that bind Adapter to ListView. i.e. mListView.setAdapter(mAllResultsAdapter);
}

The problem is when AysncTask executed and onPostExecute() get called (where mAllResultsAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged(); get called), the Adapter has not bound to ListView yet. Simply calling initListview(); before loadItems(apiKey); should make the java.lang.IllegalStateException: goes away.

Update:
I took a deep look in your code, the problem is the ArrayList that bound to Adapter is changed in the Background thread:

// proccesJSON() is called in AsyncTask.doInBackground()
private void proccesJSON() throws JSONException, IOException {
  ... ...

  mAllResultsItem.add(item); // <-- mAllResultsItem is bound to mAllResultsAdapter

  ... ...
}

Your adapter is actually modified from a background thread, exactly as the exception suggested. The solution is moving it to UI thread or simply wrapping it with runOnUiThread():

... ...

runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
  public void run() {
    mAllResultsItem.add(item);
    mAllResultsAdapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
  }
}); // end of runOnUiThread

... ...

Hope this helps.
