I am trying to display received messages using custom adapter on list view , until now everything is working fine , but when I press back and come back and launch this activity again , only message send works but received messages cannot be displayed on the list view.
Steps I have done so far :
Use debugger to find out if message is not empty, messages are received and not empty.
Use debugger inside receives() function , it turns out on first launch of activity looper.loop() function gives control back to main thread but next time on activity resume this loops doesn't seem to end (may be this is cause of error) .
p.s: On first launch of this activity I can display received messages , but when I go back and resume activity , receives() fails , I am clueless here , any small hint in right direction is welcome, thanks for time.
