I sub classed SimpleAdapter to add some extra functionality to it, like changing background color, custom views and filtering. The background thing is working out great but the filter isn't. If I use the SimpleFilter provided by the adapter there is no problem at all, so I copied the methods from the source and put them into my adapter. Although I didn't touch anything I'll get a IndexOutOfBoundsException when typing in the search term. Usually on the second or third character.
I copied the whole class but the interesting part is the CustomFilter bindView and getView is working great. After implementing the filter changed it stops working. The exception is caused by data.get(position) in the bindView method on the first line but the problem has to be the filter.

int resource;
int[] to;
List<Map<String, String>> data, mUnfilteredData;
String[] from;
Context context;
