I'm fighting with a problem that is driving me crazy: I have a very simple ListView which scroll smoothly on a device and very luggy on another device that is almost 100% the same.
here you can find a video of the luggy scroll and here you can find a video of the (almost) smooth scrolling.
the slow scroll happens on a device with this specs, the smooth scroll happens on a device with this specs
here is the very basic code I used (obviously using ViewHolder pattern), how the hell can it be possible?? Please somebody help me!!!
public DealerAdapter(Context context, int skinLayoutResourceId, ArrayList<Dealer> items) {
super(context, skinLayoutResourceId, items);
_items = items;
mContext = context;
layout = skinLayoutResourceId;
}
@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
DealerViewHolder holder = null;
// reuse views
if (convertView == null) {
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) mContext.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
convertView = inflater.inflate(layout, null);
// configure view holder
holder = new DealerViewHolder();
holder.lblName = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.skinDealer.lblNameSurname);
holder.lblSapCode = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.skinDealer.lblSapCode);
holder.lblAddress = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.skinDealer.lblAddress);
convertView.setTag(holder);
} else
holder = (DealerViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
try {
holder.lblName.setText(_items.get(position).getName());
holder.lblCode.setText(_items.get(position).getCode());
holder.lblAddress.setText(_items.get(position).getAddress());
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO: handle exception
}
return convertView;
}
static class DealerViewHolder {
TextView lblName;
TextView lblAddress;
TextView lblCode;
}
EDIT:
I tested the same code on another samsung device, galaxy note 10.1, with the same OS version as the one having a smooth scrolling and with more powerfull hardware, the result is surprending!! Here is the behavior, here are the device's specs.
Some times android is a real giant question mark!!!!
EDIT 2:
Here is logcat while executing a scroll on the device with android 4.2.2
