Change your Layouts like this

activity_main.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context="com.breuhteam.recyclerview.MainActivity">

<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
    android:id="@+id/recycler_view"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:scrollbars="vertical" />
</RelativeLayout>

view_item.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">

<ImageView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/itemView"
    android:src="@drawable/diy"
    android:layout_margin="1dp"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"/>
</RelativeLayout>

thanks it work for me but when I scoll down and I want to go back to up item some item size change – Ridae HAMDANI Sep 13 '16 at 18:42
it's because of recyclerview every time create the new view, you have to setTag for your items. – Uttam Panchasara Sep 13 '16 at 18:44

This answer worked for me thanks @UttamPanchasara . – Nelson Katale May 25 '20 at 20:22
The layout_margin and adjustViewBounds properties are important and not mentioned by most answers. – Michele Dorigatti Aug 02 '20 at 16:20

So I had the same problem but with text but I think it doesnt matter

We need to change the height of the constraint layout to wrap content instead match parent enter image description here
