Deletes before the image is downloaded.

Hi! I am having a problem where the image gets deleted even before the image is downloaded. I have decent internet speed and this can be a bug. So is there any fix to this??

Absolutely! You can wait to start the timer until the image is downloaded. There is a callback method that you can use instead when downloading the image. Check out the into method that has a Callback as the 2nd parameter: http://square.github.io/picasso/javadoc/index.html

You'd want to start the timer in the onSuccess method of the callback.
