Android Retrofit how to load data and load image independent to recycler view

I’m using Retrofit to load data from web api and display data to recyclerview. Here are my layout:

Item of recycler view:

 <LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:weightSum="100"
    >

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
        android:layout_weight="30"

        >
        <RelativeLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent">
            <android.support.v7.widget.CardView
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                xmlns:cardview="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
                cardview:cardCornerRadius="@dimen/cardview_corner_radius"
                >
                <ImageView
                    android:id="@+id/imgExhibit"
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_height="match_parent"
                    android:scaleType="fitXY"

                    android:src="@drawable/img_no_image" />
            </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>
            <ProgressBar
                android:id="@+id/viewProgressBar"
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_centerInParent="true"
                android:indeterminateDrawable="@drawable/my_progress"
                android:visibility="gone"/>
        </RelativeLayout>



    </LinearLayout>


    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_weight="70"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:weightSum="100">

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/tvExhibitName"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"

            android:layout_weight="10"
            android:text="TRỐNG NHẠC"
            android:textAppearance="@style/ExhibitNameMainscreen" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/tvExhibitDescription"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:textAppearance="@style/ExhibitDescriptionMainscreen"
            android:layout_weight="30"
            android:ellipsize="end"
            android:maxLines="2"
            android:text="Trống nhạc là hiện vật do Toà thánh Ngọc Sắc trao tặng"
             />

    </LinearLayout>


</LinearLayout>

Model is auto parse by http://www.jsonschema2pojo.org/ from api:
http://demo.museum.vebrary.vn/api/Exhibit/GetPaging?pageindex=1&pagesize=10

public class ExhibitMainScreenModel {

@SerializedName("EXHID")
@Expose
private Integer eXHID;
@SerializedName("EXHIBITNAME")
@Expose
private String eXHIBITNAME;
@SerializedName("DESCRIPTION")
@Expose
private String dESCRIPTION;

public Integer getEXHID() {
    return eXHID;
}

public void setEXHID(Integer eXHID) {
    this.eXHID = eXHID;
}

public String getEXHIBITNAME() {
    return eXHIBITNAME;
}

public void setEXHIBITNAME(String eXHIBITNAME) {
    this.eXHIBITNAME = eXHIBITNAME;
}

public String getDESCRIPTION() {
    return dESCRIPTION;
}

public void setDESCRIPTION(String dESCRIPTION) {
    this.dESCRIPTION = dESCRIPTION;
}

}

and api http://demo.museum.vebrary.vn/api/Exhibit/GetImages?id=4 return one String of image by id

Previously, I used to add attribute String Image to Model because the previous api return both data and image. And I can load it easy to recycler view. But it toke many time loading.
And then, I have 2 api get data and get image independent.
I want to display data before, and UI main don’t block by loading image to image view, I want to can scroll the recycler view while the image view loading (be like facebook app)
Here are Main activity class:

public class MainActivityNew extends AppCompatActivity implements View.OnClickListener {
Toolbar toolbar;
RecyclerView recyclerView;
NavigationView navigationView;
DrawerLayout drawerLayout;
TextView tvTitleToolbar, txtTitleCategory;

//RecyclerView api
private ExhibitMainscreenRecyclerViewAdapter mAdapter;
private ApiService mService;
//ProgressDialog
private ProgressBar viewProgressBar;
private CustomProgressDialogTwo customProgressDialogTwo;
private LoadMoreProgressDialog loadMoreProgressDialog;
//load more
private int indexPage=1;
private int size=10;

private EndlessRecyclerViewScrollListener scrollListener;
//
int id;



@Override
protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main_new);
    //set transparent stt bar
    //StatusBarUtil.setTransparent(this);
    addControl();
    actionBar();
    showDataToRecyclerView();
    showProgressDialog();
    loadAnswers(indexPage,size);
    showIntroMenu();
    setPositionTextViewTittleCategogy();
    addEvent();




}



public void showErrorMessage() {
    Toast.makeText(MainActivityNew.this, "Error loading posts", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

private void showProgressDialog() {

                }
            });
        }
    }).start();

}
private void showDataToRecyclerView() {
    mAdapter = new ExhibitMainscreenRecyclerViewAdapter(this, new ArrayList<ExhibitMainScreenModel>(0), new ExhibitMainscreenRecyclerViewAdapter.PostItemListener() {


        @Override

        }

                }
            });
        }
    }).start();



}

And the adapter:

public class ExhibitMainscreenRecyclerViewAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<ExhibitMainscreenRecyclerViewAdapter.ViewHolder> {

private List<ExhibitMainScreenModel> ExhibitList;
private Context mContext;
private PostItemListener mItemListener;
private int id;
//web api

public class ViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder implements View.OnClickListener{

    public TextView tvName,tvDescription;
    public ImageView imvExhibit;

        tvDescription = itemView.findViewById(R.id.tvExhibitDescription);
        imvExhibit=itemView.findViewById(R.id.imgExhibit);

        this.mItemListener = postItemListener;
        itemView.setOnClickListener(this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View view) {
        ExhibitMainScreenModel item = getItem(getAdapterPosition());
        this.mItemListener.onPostClick(item.getEXHID());

        notifyDataSetChanged();
    }
}

public ExhibitMainscreenRecyclerViewAdapter(Context context, List<ExhibitMainScreenModel> posts, PostItemListener itemListener) {
    ExhibitList = posts;
    mContext = context;
    mItemListener = itemListener;
}

@Override

    Context context = parent.getContext();
    LayoutInflater inflater = LayoutInflater.from(context);

    View postView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.item_recyclerview_mainscreen, parent, false);

    ViewHolder viewHolder = new ViewHolder(postView, this.mItemListener);
    //web api

                        }

                    }


                    @Override
                    public void onFailure(Call<String> call, Throwable t) {

                });

        }
    }).run();
}

@Override

    imv.setImageBitmap(bmp);

}

public void showErrorMessage() {
    Toast.makeText(mContext, "Error loading posts", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

}

And here is result with my code.
result

but the image is display intricate
So, can you help me?
Ah, It usually have error “android application doing too much work on its main thread”
Can you help me solve it? Thank you very much!!

    Once you get the response or url of image the kindly use the libarary by this way it will automatically handle all scenario.

    if you are getting url of image in the response in below line:

    showImage(response.body(),holder);

    here if response.body() contains the url of image

    Replace

     Bitmap bmp = Util.StringToBitMap(imageString);
    ImageView imv = holder.imvExhibit;
    imv.setImageBitmap(bmp);

    by

    Picasso.with(context).load(your image url).into(imageView);

    if your response is base64 encoded. where urlRes is your encoded response like:-

    String urlRes = "XFLSVJpiqqVA3yQVy74obNAMCrajG1a5mvtgZBcXFK";
String data =  new FileDecryption().decrypt(urlRes);
        Log.e("MEssage decoded", data);

    add two classes in your project.

    Base64.java

    public class Base64 {
    /**
     * encode
     *

    }

    /*

    If I understood you correctly, you’re using retrofit to load the image from the network. Instead of doing it yourself, there are some few popular libraries intended to handle, load and display images whithin an app, giving the user a free UI thread and experience.
    These libraries let you focus on your main logic instead of technical things every developer needs. Also, because they are very popular, they are less buggy than what we all would probably write ourselves and keep on being updated as time goes by.
    These libraries include, among others, Picasso, Glide and Fresco.

    Good luck!
