Runing my app i get a blank activity, for the time being i only have a list which should be projecting images, by reading these images addresses from JSON, and from the logcat i could see the the addresses being passed to the app, and logged, but not sure why the layout is not getting structured and i get a blank white screen.
Using Genymotion - android s6 - android studio 2.1.1

going over the error i got the followin;

DataAdapter.java; and i have searched stackoverflow for eglSurfaceAttrib not implemented
increased the emulator disk size, implemented Gapp and other instructions i found on the following posts; Android Studio - Emulator - eglSurfaceAttrib not implemented
but still no layout.
As the user below suggested, i changed the initialization of initView, into the end of ImageAddresses, in order for it to follow the step of retrieving the addresses, and also logged the android_version.size(); which returns zero, thus the layout is still blank but not sure how to fix this problem,
Logcat after changes ;

Apparently the cause of this error is a conflict in timing in executing methods, thus as suggested by of you i am trying to user runOnUiThread, which i am not sure how to construct properly within my code, so far i've tried the following in my MainActivity;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
ArrayList<String> image_urls = new ArrayList<String>();
String[] android_image_urls = new String[image_urls.size()];
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Firebase.setAndroidContext(this);
ImagesAddresses();
}
public void ImagesAddresses(){
Firebase ref = new Firebase("https://xxxxx.firebaseio.com/xxxxx/xxxxx");
ref.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
@Override
public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot snapshot) {
Map<String, String> allADR = (HashMap<String, String>) snapshot.getValue();
if (allADR != null) {
Collection<String> BlkADR = allADR.values();
image_urls.addAll(BlkADR);
android_image_urls = image_urls.toArray(android_image_urls);
// private final String android_image_urls[]=android_image_urls
Log.i("myTag", image_urls.toString());
initViews();
}
}
@Override
public void onCancelled(FirebaseError firebaseError) {
}
});
}
private void initViews(){
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
//Do something on UiThread
RecyclerView recyclerView = (RecyclerView)findViewById(R.id.card_recycler_view);
recyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);
RecyclerView.LayoutManager layoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getApplicationContext());
recyclerView.setLayoutManager(layoutManager);
ArrayList androidVersion = prepareData();
DataAdapter adapter = new DataAdapter(getApplicationContext(),androidVersion);
recyclerView.setAdapter(adapter);
}
});
}
private ArrayList prepareData(){
ArrayList android_version = new ArrayList<>();
for(int i=0;i<android_image_urls.length;i++){
AndroidVersion androidVersion = new AndroidVersion();
androidVersion.setAndroid_image_url(android_image_urls[i]);
android_version.add(androidVersion);
}
return android_version;
}
} But i guess it is not the right way to do it, since the app still crash - and i get the following errors;
