Everytime we open the activity that bares the recycler adapter it fails to load on the first try. Exiting the activity and re-entering fixes the problem. Here is a gif for example. https://gyazo.com/32dc664dd427ef1129704a09861a3708

My Adapter:
public class ActiveChatConvo extends RecyclerView.Adapter<ActiveChatConvo.ViewHolder>
{
private ArrayList<User> mUsers;
private Context mContext;
public ActiveChatConvo(ArrayList<User> photos,Context dick) {
mUsers = photos;
mContext = dick;
}
private Context getContext() {
return mContext;
}
@Override
public ActiveChatConvo.ViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
Context context = parent.getContext();
LayoutInflater inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);
// Inflate the custom layout
View contactView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.chat_single_item, parent, false);
// Return a new holder instance
ViewHolder viewHolder = new ViewHolder(contactView);
return viewHolder;
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(ViewHolder holder, int position) {
// Get the data model based on position
User user = mUsers.get(position);
// Set item views based on your views and data model
TextView name = holder.mItemName;
name.setText(user.getName());
TextView description = holder.mItemDescription;
description.setText(user.getEmail());
ImageView pic = holder.mItemImage;
Picasso.with(pic.getContext()).load(Uri.parse(user.getPic())).into(pic);
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return mUsers.size();
}
public static class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener {
private ImageView mItemImage;
private TextView mItemName;
private TextView mItemDescription;
private LinearLayout layout;
final LinearLayout.LayoutParams params;
public ViewHolder(View v) {
super(v);
mItemImage = (ImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.chat_persion_image);
mItemName = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.chat_persion_name);
mItemDescription = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.chat_persion_email);
layout = (LinearLayout) itemView.findViewById(R.id.show_chat_single_item_layout);
params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT, ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);
v.setOnClickListener(this);
}
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Context context = itemView.getContext();
Intent showChatIntent = new Intent(context, ChatConversationActivity.class);
//showPhotoIntent.putExtra(PHOTO_KEY, mPhoto);
context.startActivity(showChatIntent);
}
}
}
My main class
public class ConnectionsActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private Toolbar toolbar;
private ViewPager mViewPager;
private TextView person_name,person_email;
private RecyclerView recyclerView;
private DatabaseReference mRef;
private LinearLayoutManager mLinearLayoutManager;
private ArrayList<User> users;
private FirebaseAuth mAuth;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_connections);
//Database
mRef = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("Users");
mRef.keepSynced(true);
mAuth = FirebaseAuth.getInstance();
FirebaseUser user = mAuth.getCurrentUser();
users = new ArrayList<>();
mRef.addListenerForSingleValueEvent(new ValueEventListener() {
@Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
if (dataSnapshot.exists())
{
for (DataSnapshot postSnapshot: dataSnapshot.getChildren()) {
String name = postSnapshot.child("Name").getValue(String.class);
String email = postSnapshot.child("Email").getValue(String.class);
String pic = postSnapshot.child("image").getValue(String.class);
users.add(new User(name,email,pic));
}
}
}
@Override
public void onCancelled(DatabaseError databaseError) {
}
});
//Recycler View
recyclerView = (RecyclerView)findViewById(R.id.active_chats);
ActiveChatConvo adapter = new ActiveChatConvo(users,this);
recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
mLinearLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(this);
//mLinearLayoutManager.setStackFromEnd(true);
recyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLinearLayoutManager);
//VIEWS
toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.tToolbar);
if (toolbar != null)
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
ImageView profileActivity = (ImageView) toolbar.findViewById(R.id.action_profile);
ImageView homeActivity = (ImageView) toolbar.findViewById(R.id.action_home);
profileActivity.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent profileActivity = new Intent(ConnectionsActivity.this, ProfileActivity.class);
startActivity(profileActivity);
finish();
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.push_right_in, R.anim.push_right_out);
}
});
homeActivity.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent home = new Intent(ConnectionsActivity.this, HomeActivity.class);
startActivity(home);
finish();
overridePendingTransition(R.anim.push_right_in, R.anim.push_right_out);
}
});
}
}
So if the recyclerView Activity is the first activity I visit then it will not create the items.
