RecyclerView does not update after removing an item

Question

I have a RecyclerView horizontal image slider at the bottom of a fragment. The top of the fragment shows some details. Once the user clicks on the images at the bottom, the idea is to remove that image from the image slider and display its information in the fragment. Now the information shows up but the image does not gets removed from the RecyclerView. Here is what I have coded in the Onclick of the outermost layout. I have tried all the related answers that I could find but nothing worked. They all are in the code. Please let me know what am I doing wrong or what is missing.

holder.itemRowRelativeLayout.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {

            if (isFiltering) {
                mItemList.clear();
                mItemList.addAll(mOriginalItemList);
                mItemList.remove(position);// At this point mItemList holds the correct. That is all the images but not the one that was clicked. 

                notifyItemRemoved(position); //solution 1
                notifyItemRangeRemoved(position, getItemCount()); // solution 2
                notifyItemRangeRemoved(0, getItemCount()); // solution 3
                notifyDataSetChanged();//solution 4
            }
        }
    });

Solution 1

You need to use this 3 lines to make it work

mItemList.remove(position);
notifyItemRemoved(position);
notifyItemRangeChanged(position, mItemList.size());

Solution 2

private void removerecyclerItem(DraftStoriesPojo list) {
        int current_position = allStoriesPojoList.indexOf(list);
        allStoriesPojoList.remove(current_position);
        notifyItemRemoved(current_position);
        notifyItemRangeChanged (current_position, getItemCount());
    }

Solution 3

Declare a method in your custom RecylerView like below

public void DeleteData(int position){

        recordingItems.remove(position);
        notifyItemRemoved(position);
        notifyItemRangeChanged(position, recordingItems.size());
    }

and from mainActivity call

adapter.DeleteData(position);
