I am using a customlistfield by extending VerticalFieldManager, and for the row I am usingf another CustoRowManager that extends Manager. The CustomRowManager has 2 TextField and a BitmapField . This list is implemented for a live xml feed. For loading the bitmapfield I am displaying placeholders which is then replaced by the actual image from background thread. I am not able to figure out how I should replace place holders with the bitmapfield. using invalidate() is one option, but on which element I should perform it.

public class CustomList extends VerticalFieldManager{
private int totalHeight = 0;
private int screenHeight = 0;
private int scrollPosition = 0;

protected void sublayout(int width, int height)
{
    width = 480;
    height = 230;
            super.sublayout(width,height);
    setExtent(width, height);
}   

protected boolean navigationClick(int status, int time)
{
    int index;
    System.out.println("CLICKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!");
    if ((status & KeypadListener.STATUS_FOUR_WAY) == KeypadListener.STATUS_FOUR_WAY) 
        {           
        index = this.getFieldWithFocusIndex();
        UiApplication.getUiApplication().pushScreen(new TopNewsScreen(_vec, index));
        }
    return true;
}   

Bitmap _bmp = null;
BitmapField _bmF = null;
Object _Obj = null;
TopNews _topNews = null;
String _headStr = null, _metaStr = null;
CustTextField _headNews = null, _metaData = null;
CustomRow _custRow = null;
Vector _vec;

public CustomList(Vector _vec,long _property)

    this._vec = new Vector();
    this._vec = _vec;

    int _size = _vec.size();
    int i ;

    for(i = 0; i <_size; i++)
    {   
        _headStr = new String();
        _metaStr = new String();
        _bmp = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("img/1.jpg");
        _bmF = new BitmapField(_bmp);

        _topNews = (TopNews)_vec.elementAt(i);
        _headStr = _topNews.getHeadline();
        _metaStr = _topNews.getMetaData();

        int _newsLeng = _headStr.length(), alert = 0;

            _headStr = this.truncate(_headStr,70);

        }
