I’m trying to create behavior similar to what happens in Facebook Messenger, when sending several consecutive messages, for this I created several background drawables with border radius to be applied to the items of recyclerview and give the appearance that one item is related to the other.
There is a method addItem that is used to post a new item in the conversation and in it I have my logic that checks whether the paracarp of the time of the last message and the current message is less than 5 seconds, and if yes, is made a loop to iterate the last items in the list and apply the new layout based on some logical tests that will decide whether the item will look top in the group, center or footer, this is done through 4 methods of the adaptes, it’s them: setItemAsTop, setItemAsBottom, setItemAsCenter and setItemAsSingle in case the message does not enter the test of the 5s, these methods simply change the value of a variable and notify the change, variable that is used to apply the layout in the cellular item in each pass of the onBindViewHolder.
The problem I have is that apparently when I call notifyItemChanged in each of these methods(setItemAs...) the whole list is notified or whatever, in fact I do not understand what is happening, but always the last command setItemAs.. is applied in the list and not in the past position.
Follow the relevant code of mine adapter:
public class MessageAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter {
public class MessageLayoutType {
public static final int AS_TOP = 0;
public static final int AS_CENTER = 1;

messageList.add(position, message);
notifyItemInserted(position);
if (DateTimeUtils.getDateDiff(lastMessageReceiveTime, message.getTime(), TimeUnit.SECONDS) <= 5) {
groupCountReceived++;
Log.e("===DateTime===", "entrou no time" + groupCountReceived + " e agora o count é " + groupCountReceived );
Log.e("count", groupCountReceived + " ");
for (int i = groupCountReceived; i >= 0; i--) {
if (i == groupCountReceived) {
