Change color of an random item in ListView when connectivity change is detected


I have a broadcast receiver which receives connectivity change broadcast.So it is triggered whenever connectivity change is detected.I have a list view with 10 items.Each item has a EditText which contains the position of that particular item from 0 to 9. When the broadcast is received,a random number is generated from 0 to 9,on basis of random number that is generated,i want to change the color of the text in corresponding textview. How to implement this?

My current code is:

Manifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.app.prateek.listviewbroadcastreceiver">

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
        <activity android:name=".MainActivity">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

        <receiver
            android:name=".MyReceiver"
            android:enabled="true"
            android:exported="true">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE" />
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>
    </application>

</manifest>

    @Override

        // TODO: This method is called when the BroadcastReceiver is receiving
        // an Intent broadcast.

        int min = 0;
        int max = 9;

        Random r = new Random();
        int highlight = r.nextInt(max - min + 1) + min;
        Toast.makeText(context, ""+highlight, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

        //change color of that particular object with generated random ID in listview
    }

Solution

  • Make a new adapter and set it in your listview using listener callback pattern
