You are sending integer array to the adapter not the drawable' so create your own adapter...to display images in grid view — bGorle

I've modified your code by a custom adapter, now it's working fine, please note it.

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.AdapterView;
import android.widget.BaseAdapter;
import android.widget.GridView;
import android.widget.ImageView;

public class MainActivity extends Activity implements
        AdapterView.OnItemClickListener {

    private ImageView selection;
    private static final Integer[] items = { R.drawable.ic_launcher,
            R.drawable.ic_launcher, R.drawable.ic_launcher,
            R.drawable.ic_launcher, R.drawable.ic_launcher,
            R.drawable.ic_launcher, R.drawable.ic_launcher,
            R.drawable.ic_launcher };

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        ImageView selection = findViewById(R.id.selection);
        GridView grid = findViewById(R.id.grid);
        // grid.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<Integer>(this, R.layout.cell,
        // items));
        grid.setAdapter(new CustomGridAdapter(this, items));
        grid.setOnItemClickListener(this);

    }

    // @Override
    // public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    // getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.grid, menu);
    // return true;
    // }

    @Override
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2, long arg3) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Clicked position is" + arg2,
            Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        //Selection.setImageResource(items[arg2]);
    }

    // Here is your custom Adapter

    public class CustomGridAdapter extends BaseAdapter {
        private Activity mContext;

        // Keep all Images in array
        public Integer[] mThumbIds;

        // Constructor
        public CustomGridAdapter(MainActivity mainActivity, Integer[] items) {
            this.mContext = mainActivity;
            this.mThumbIds = items;
        }

        @Override
        public int getCount() {
            return mThumbIds.length;
        }

        @Override
        public Object getItem(int position) {
            return mThumbIds[position];
        }

        @Override
        public long getItemId(int position) {
            return 0;
        }

        @Override
        public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
            ImageView imageView = new ImageView(mContext);
            imageView.setImageResource(mThumbIds[position]);
            imageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER_CROP);
            imageView.setLayoutParams(new GridView.LayoutParams(70, 70));
            return imageView;
        }

    }

}

The ArrayAdapter requires the resource ID to be a TextView XML exception means you don't supply what the ArrayAdapter expects.

When you use this constructor:

new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.cell,items)

R.Layout.cell must be the id of a xml layout file containing only a TextView(the TextView can't be wrapped by another layout, like a LinearLayout, RelativeLayout,ImageView etc!), something like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TextView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
    // other attributes of the TextView
/>

If you want your list row layout to be something a little different then a simple TextView widget use this constructor:

new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.cell, 
   R.id.the_id_of_a_textview_from_the_layout, items)

where you supply the id of a layout that can contain various views, but also must contain a TextView with and id(the third parameter) that you pass to your ArrayAdapter so it can know where to put the Strings in the row layout.
