You want to change the image of the imageview after the image is downloaded?

To set your downloaded image to the ImageView you can create a Drawable by using Drawable.createFromStream and then set the Drawable to the ImageView with setImageDrawable. It was not clear from your post if you needed help with creating the rest of the app, so i wrote a short code snippet of how i would approach the problem.

Hi Exoit

Thanks for your reply I got the idea .One more thing If internet connection is not available means i want to hide the image view is it possible and where to set the URL'S of the downloading image in code .Is their any possibility to set the link for each image

Don't mistake me because I am new to android development

To hide a view checkout setVisibility in the SDK. In the code example i gave you would set the url in the execution of the downloader e.g. Downloader().execute("http://example.org/example.png");
