I am using a SimpleCursorAdapter to fill a list. I am recycling my views and using a ViewHolder to get fast loading, but the problem is that there is an image in every view that needs to be downloaded.. The view is a lot like your typical facebook feed. Even though I only need a very low resolution image, it still takes a while to load it, obviously.. And during this time, the recycled view's image is displayed, which I really do not like.
My question is, is there a way of pre-loading views in any way? The list is pretty big, so I really do not want to download and cache all of the images.
Any ideas?
Use ImageLoader! It makes it easy to download, display and cache remote images.
