    Your imageView may be getting recycled by the listview. Your problem might be a stale reference to your image being passed to the ImageLoader.

    You can verify this by checking the instance of the your imageView before you call DisplayImage and then after it’s loaded.

    ImageLoader imgLoader = new ImageLoader(ctx);
    
    
            imgLoader.DisplayImage(image_url, loader, image);
    

    You may want to consider using the viewholder pattern to hold your ImageLoader rather than creating a new one each time, that may also help.

    something like

    ImageLoader imgLoader = (ImageLoader) view.getTag()
    if(imgLoader == null){
    imgLoader = new ImageLoader(ctx);
    view.setTag(imgLoader);
    }
    

    This is just taking a stab at it. Hard to know without running it but hopefully it helps 🙂
    Good luck
