when clicking on listview items no action performed and LogCat shows ViewPostImeInputStage ACTION_DOWN

Question

I'm trying to create an activity that search throw the listview items. I create a switch with case Category where Category is an item in the main <string-array>, but when I'm clicking on the Item no action is performed and the LogCat show this msg --> 04-29 20:20:00.380: D/ViewRootImpl(30869): ViewPostImeInputStage ACTION_DOWN

can any one tell me the solution?

You have to set the itemClickListener on the ListView. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17851687/how-to-handle-the-click-event-in-listview-in-android — Sammy T, Apr 29 '16 at 22:43
I have this method in the code but it doesn't respond, also see the LogCat error @Sammy T — Doglas, Apr 30 '16 at 13:27

Well it looks like your switch-case isn't being called then. Try replacing your switch statement to an if statement. Using .equals() is a more reliable way to compare strings.

TextView thisTextView = (TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.listview_item_title);
String text = (String)thisTextView.getText();

if(text.equals("Category")){
   Intent i=new Intent(Search.this, MainActivity.class);
   startActivity(i);
}else{
   Toast.makeText(Search.this,"What's my text: " + text, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}

still not working!! :/ the same msg in LogCat --> `04-30 21:16:03.920: D/ViewRootImpl(17890): ViewPostImeInputStage ACTION_DOWN` – Doglas Apr 30 '16 at 18:16
Try this new edit in place of the if statement from before. This way it should tell you what text you're getting back even if it fails for some reason. Am I right in assuming that you have TextViews filling your ListView? – Sammy T Apr 30 '16 at 18:33
what's the `getActivity()` method (is undefined)? I tried to set `getApplicationContext()` instead of `getActivity()` and run the app, and when clicking on the Item the program stop `unfortunately has stopped` – Doglas Apr 30 '16 at 18:54
Sorry replace `getActivity()` with `Search.this` depending on the situation getActivity doesn't always work. – Sammy T Apr 30 '16 at 18:57
`unfortunately has stopped` again. You don't think the problem it occur with the other place within the code?, I think maybe be in the returned value of `getItem(int position)` method in `CustomAdapter` class? – Doglas Apr 30 '16 at 19:04
I change the LogCat in the post to the new one. – Doglas Apr 30 '16 at 19:14
Alright, I think I see the problem. Can you add your layout xml for what you're using to fill your ListView? I can tell there's a LinearLayout but it would just be easier to see the xml. – Sammy T Apr 30 '16 at 19:19
see the post I add the layout. – Doglas Apr 30 '16 at 19:25
Alright, so if you run this edit and see a Toast, then the text you're getting isn't what you expected to get. – Sammy T Apr 30 '16 at 19:33
Ohh, how I forget to change that code! OMG .... It's work, I don't know what to say Mr. Sammy I don't know how to say how much I'm happy now.. It's for 5 days I work within this error. Thanks Thanks Thanks a lot thank youuuuuuuu .... – Doglas Apr 30 '16 at 19:42
You're welcome. Just take note of how we debugged your code for the next time you run into a problem. Either look through the log for an `E:/something: some error` or, if there aren't any, add Toasts(it doesn't have to be a toast but they're my fav) to narrow down where your code is failing. – Sammy T Apr 30 '16 at 19:50
Thank you for this advice. Actually I have a problem with the LogCat error reading, but also I'm new in android programming. I wish I'll getting better with it.. Is there any references that help ? – Doglas Apr 30 '16 at 19:58
Take the logcat still attached to this post for example. There are several lines indicating an error with `E/` If you start looking from the top, you find the type of error `LinearLayout cannot be cast to`... and where it is `Search.onItemClick(Search.java:126)` – Sammy T Apr 30 '16 at 20:37
Thank you. I understand it :) (y) – Doglas May 01 '16 at 09:51

You have onItemClick but you're not setting it when you set the Click Listener on the ListView. Put it inside of your setOnItemClickListener

 listView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view, int position,
                long id) {
            //whatever you want to happen when an item is clicked
        }
    });

I call it like this >>`listView.setOnItemClickListener(this);` in `doListSearch()` and `doListNormal()`methods – Doglas Apr 30 '16 at 17:18
Yes, I saw that but I think that may be your problem. Try it the way I'm suggesting. – Sammy T Apr 30 '16 at 17:21
Ok, good. Now, try adding `Toast.makeText(getActivity(),"button clicked", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();` just before your `switch(listView.getItemAtPosition(position).toString())` and tell me if you see anything. – Sammy T Apr 30 '16 at 17:51
without `switch` every thing is ok. I tried `Toast` and it's work – Doglas Apr 30 '16 at 17:54

when clicking on listview items no action performed and LogCat shows ViewPostImeInputStage ACTION_DOWN
