Best way to load thousands of records to a Expandable List View

Question

I have an Android App that needs to populate an Expandable List View from a database, the thing is that I need to load like 1700 items to the list. Which is the best way to load the data?

The app crash when I want to search inside the list.

IMHO, users generally do not want to scroll through 1700 items. — CommonsWare, Sep 10 '15 at 23:38
search the database instead and then show the results in the list and use lazy loading — Tasos, Sep 11 '15 at 00:08

Try to use a custom library. For example, this. Still I can advise to make a local copy of the database and this adapter. But 1700 is a lot of elements in terms of usability.
