I have used below code:

public class LazyAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
private Activity activity;
private ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> data;
private static LayoutInflater inflater = null;
public ImageLoader imageLoader;
ListAdapter adapter;
public LazyAdapter(Activity a, ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> d) {
    activity = a;
    data = d;
    inflater = (LayoutInflater) activity
            .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
    imageLoader = new ImageLoader(activity.getApplicationContext());
}

public int getCount() {
    return data.size();
}

public Object getItem(int position) {
    return position;
}

public long getItemId(int position) {
    return position;
}

public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    View vi = convertView;
    if (convertView == null)
        vi = inflater.inflate(R.layout.list_row, null);

    TextView title = (TextView) vi.findViewById(R.id.title); 
    ListView imageView = (ListView) vi
            .findViewById(R.id.grid_item_image);

            HashMap<String, String> item = new HashMap<String, String>();
    item = data.get(position);
    // Setting all values in listview
    title.setText(item.get(MainActivity.KEY_TITLE));

        if (item.equals("notchbolly")) {
                 listview.setAdapter(this);
            }  else {
                    listview.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.rihanna);
                } 
         return vi;
               }

MainActivity.java:

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
  static final String URL = "http://webservices/new_feed_articls.xml";
 static String KEY_CATEGORY = "Categories";
 static final String KEY_TITLE = "Category";
 static final String KEY_TITLENAME = "name";

 LazyAdapter adapter;

 @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
      final ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> songsList = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
    XMLParser parser = new XMLParser();
        String xml = parser.getXmlFromUrl(URL); // getting XML from URL
        Document doc = parser.getDomElement(xml); // getting DOM element

        NodeList nl = doc.getElementsByTagName(KEY_TITLE);

        // looping through all song nodes &lt;song&gt;
        for (int i = 0; i < nl.getLength(); i++) {
            // creating new HashMap
            HashMap<String, String> map = new HashMap<String, String>   ();
            Element e = (Element) nl.item(i);
             map.put( KEY_TITLE,((Element)nl.item(i)).getAttribute(KEY_TITLENAME));
             // map.put(KEY_TITLE, parser.getValue(e, KEY_TITLE));
            songsList.add(map);
        }
        GridView list = (GridView) findViewById(R.id.listView1);
    adapter = new LazyAdapter(this, songsList);
     list.setAdapter(adapter);

Answer 1

I think there are a few details you may want to revise.

Number 1: XML file line #11: Error inflating class

This means that on your XML layout file, not sure which since you deleted the log from the question, there is a problem when inflating a class, most likely this happens when inflating your com.example.notch.HorizontalListView on list_row.xml. Make sure you check the Graphical Layout tab on Eclipse, it usually gives an error indicating it was unable to create the custom view. Something along the lines:

The following classes could not be found:
- com.example.custom.view (Change to android.view.View, Fix Build Path, Edit XML, Create Class)

Number 2: You seem to be casting a ListView to your custom view. Taken from your getView() method:

ListView imageView = (ListView) vi
        .findViewById(R.id.grid_item_image);

Where on your list_row, grid_item_image is a com.example.notch.HorizontalListView. This could be causing some minor issues too.

Number 3: Why are you setting your adapter inside your adapter's item? :crazyFace: If you do plan to have a listview inside your gridview, create two different adapters, and two different layout for the views.

Again, from your getView():

if (item.equals("notchbolly")) {
             listview.setAdapter(this);
        } 

And btw, you have a null pointer exception on those three lines above, listview is an item that is not defined in your adapter. The ListView you defined, is with the a different identifier: imageView, so you want to check on that aswell.
