So I am not really given a reason to the right of this error message. I am not exactly sure why this is happening but my guess though is that it has to do with the fact that there are around ~50 good quality drawables. Upon scrolling really fast, the app crashes. I feel as if I am mitigating most common issues with ListView and crashing such as using View Holders as well as only initiating the inflater once.

Here is the code

public class ImageAdapter extends BaseAdapter
{
private Context context;
private ArrayList<Integer> imageIds;
private static LayoutInflater inflater;

public ImageAdapter(Context _context, ArrayList<Integer> _imageIds)
{
    context = _context;
    imageIds = _imageIds;
}

@Override
public int getCount()
{
    return imageIds.size();
}

@Override
public Object getItem(int position)
{
    return null;
}

@Override
public long getItemId(int position) {
    return 0;
}

static class ViewHolder{
    ImageView img;
}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent)
{

    ViewHolder holder = null;
    View rowView = null;

    if(rowView==null) {
        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context
                .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
        rowView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.listview_layout, parent, false);
        holder = new ViewHolder();
        holder.img = (ImageView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.flag);
        rowView.setTag(holder);
    }
    else
    {
        holder = (ViewHolder) rowView.getTag();
    }
    holder.img.setImageResource(imageIds.get(position));
    return rowView;
  }
}
