Answer 2

Since this the error that comes up when you do some MainThread task in another thread.....

try This:

runOnUiThread(new Runnable(){

public void run(){

     this.adapter.setList(list);
     this.adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
   }

});

This code might have some errors But in simple Words.. add the notifyDataSetChanged call into runOnUiThread() method. You will be Done..

OR this can also be DOne ( the perfect way )

add the following in your activity class

 private Handler handler = new Handler() {
     @Override
     public void handleMessage(Message msg) {

        this.adapter.setList(list);
        adapter.setnotifyDataSetChanged();
     }
  };

Call this handler when and where you want to call the notifydatasetchanged like this

  handler.sendEmptyMessage(0);

You should update your List like this.

Activity_name.this.runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {

@Override
public void run() {
      list = (ArrayList<Map<String, String>>) result;
      this.adapter.setList(list);
      this.adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();
    }
});
