-the cell initWithFrame is being call

I have no idea what's your code, so I'll propose how do I do it:
// somewhere in eg viewDidLoad
[self.collectionView setDelegate:self];
[self.collectionView setDataSource:self];
[self.collectionView registerClass:[UICollectionViewCell class] forCellWithReuseIdentifier:CellId];
And later the delegate:
- (UICollectionViewCell *)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
UICollectionViewCell *cell = cell = [collectionView dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier:MyCellId forIndexPath:indexPath];
// do something with your cell, set title or anything
return cell;
}
There is another possibility. Your cell, as it's reusable, will have already saved previous properties. So if you did something like this:
if (iCanAddGrayHair) {
[cell.imageView setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"hair"]]
}
Then do notice, that new cell will still have this image set! You need to add:
else {
[cell.imageView setImage:nil];
}
To reset it from previous state. You can also override prepareForReuse: method of UICollectionViewCell class to reset the values (don't forget to call super).
