Custom Listview with different row layouts (position problems)

Question

I'm creating custom listview. Everything works fine. But when i launch application problem arrise with layouts. It should be

• row1
• row2
• row1
• row2

But sometimes it just do something like this

• row1
• row2
• row1
• row1
• row2

and so on. Here is the code snippet, where i change row layouts.

View vi=convertView;
    if(convertView==null )
    {
        if(position % 2 == 0)
        vi = inflater.inflate(R.layout.list_row, parent,false);
        else
        vi = inflater.inflate(R.layout.list_row2, parent,false);
    }

    if(position % 3 == 0)
        vi.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#178C70"));
    else if(position % 3 == 1)
        vi.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#E51F2A"));
    else vi.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#1C2023"));

Answer 1

It's a bit more complicated that this.

Short answer, in your adapter, please implement these methods:

public int getItemViewType(int position)

public int getViewTypeCount()
