Why is my animation not repeating?

Question

I have repeatCount set to INFINITE (-1) and repeatMode set to RESTART (1)

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/animation/Animation.html#INFINITE

Although my animation works, it does not repeat properly. What is missing in my code?

 public class SyncActivity extends Activity { Animation slideanim; ImageView senoide; @Override protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE); getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN); setContentView(R.layout.activity_sync); senoide = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imageView3); slideanim = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(getApplicationContext(), R.anim.move); //slideanim.setFillAfter(true); slideanim.setRepeatCount(Animation.INFINITE); slideanim.setRepeatMode(Animation.RESTART); senoide.setAnimation(slideanim); senoide.startAnimation(slideanim); } } 

move.xml

 <set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shareInterpolator="false"> <translate android:fromXDelta="0%" android:toXDelta="-18.5%" android:fromYDelta="0%" android:toYDelta="0%" android:duration="1000"/> </set>

Change your XML to replay mode and rely on it:

 <set xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:shareInterpolator="false"> <translate android:fromXDelta="0%" android:toXDelta="-18.5%" android:fromYDelta="0%" android:toYDelta="0%" android:repeatCount="infinite" android:repeatMode="restart" android:duration="1000"/> </set>
