I have created a dynamic listview with lazy loading. I am trying to show a footer to the listview, so that when the user scrolls to the bottom of the listview, it will show "loading more items" (as a footer)and it will load more item.I have implemented lazy loading. I have set the the footer, but it is not getting displayed on the listview. Please help me out.

Tabfragment class containing listview:

Actually, you have to add FooterView to List before setting Adapter.. Like Below..

View root = inflater.inflate(R.layout.tab_frag1_layout, container,
                false);
lv = (ListView) root.findViewById(android.R.id.list);
View footerView = ((LayoutInflater) this.getActivity()
                .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE)).inflate(
                R.layout.listfooter, null, false);
lv.addFooterView(footerView);
lv.setAdapter(adapter);

Simple and great - 10x!Yearlong
ITs great... (you may set lv.setAdapter(null))Whetstone

In addition to the accepted answer I wanted to point out that some Android versions want the footer to be added before the adapter is set and some version it doesn't seem to matter.

I have seen in my own applications that on version 4.4.4 it doesn't matter in which order you call addFooterView and on version 4.2.2 the footer won't show unless you call addFooterView before setAdapter. Adding a header should always happen before calling setAdapter but adding a footer seems to be less strict but it's useful to know that different versions require a different setup. So it's best just to set the headers before calling setAdapter to avoid any weird behavior.

I second that. Running on 4.2.2 and the footer doesn't show. Funny thing is often we think that the implementation is flawed and look for some other solution. Who says android development is easy.Kennet
adding footer after setting adapter doesn't work for android 4.3 also.Cowshed
