I'm an Android beginner and I can't figure out why this is happening.
Activity Screenshot:
Everything works fine except when I scroll down (hence why I think it has to do with recycling)... So when I scroll back up and attempt to undo the vote (red arrow) on the first post, it thinks the post is voted down!
Alternatively, it may also think the down-vote ImageButton drawable is empty - see code). If I don't scroll, it works perfectly.
getView code:
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
ViewHolder holder;
if (convertView == null) {
holder = new ViewHolder();
// inflate the list item
convertView = this.inflater.inflate(R.layout.row_layout, parent, false);
// get views
holder.profilePic = (ImageView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.profilePic);
holder.username = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.username);
holder.day = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.day);
holder.rating = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.rating);
holder.textPost = (TextView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.textPost);
holder.ratingUp = (ImageButton) convertView.findViewById(R.id.ratingUp);
holder.ratingDown = (ImageButton) convertView.findViewById(R.id.ratingDown);
convertView.setTag(holder);
} else {
holder = (ViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
}

By considering that your onClickListerners(on holder.ratingUp and holder.ratingDown) works fine, i think the problem is in this portion of your code
If i am not wrong, you are doing something like that you have 3 conditions, First is
that means rating is upvoted and you are setting up_clicked imageDrawable, but you are not setting down_unClicked image drawable to holder.ratingDown.
second condition applies to this
then you are setting down_clicked drawable to holder.ratingDown, but not setting up_unClicked image drawable to holder.ratingUp.
and third condition is neither upvoted nor downvoted and that seems to be fine. so I think, you have to replace your that portion of code with this
Hope this helps..!!
