@thickok01 : Well it seems the thread got locked until you move in the app to force a restart then locks again in some case.
Next version have this part a little changed but I can't reproduce this so will be an hard one
@Wanilton : thanks
@ntk1 :
This is only wifi because the team have not implemented the needed link to get stream from Json and judging from my last attempts this will be hard to get progress so I did go through the way I did not want to
About memory this is way more complicated
A device may have 100Gb of Ram all of it won't be available to the app
To add correct preloading that works in both scroll way I'd need to completely rewrite some Android internal and this is not a solution, because users will always scroll faster and get to the point that preloading is not enough.
All is tied to the quality and size of images and so to the time they take to load from the storage, when you are in list mode you can scroll as fast as you want you won't have loading problems the images are small you think you see loading but it's only the alpha animation that is set to render all more visually attractive.
But for example in small grid mode on nexus 10 landscape scrolling a new line loads 16 new images, scrolling very fast goes to loading perhaps 300 images per second no flash can sustain such I/Os
There's no solution for that
