stateChanged for ChatStateListener get called only once

Question

I am using asmack to create xmpp client for android. I am using ChatStateListener to implement typing status in the chat between 2 users. I am facing this problem where stateChanged only gets called once. If I close the chat and create it again then stateChanged gets called once but not after that. I am not sure what is the problem. Please help me with this. Thanks

If you look-up the Asmack lib then you can see method updateChatState(Chat paramChat, ChatState paramChatState) will check whether your current state are same as old state , if yes then that method return false and this is the reason why you are not getting callback every time .
