android AutoCompleteTextView seems to ignore the Filter of the custom ArrayAdapter

Question

All I want to do is displaying a CheckBox at each result of the AutoCompleteTextView's results (which are strings).

I wrote an custom Array Adapter which implements Filterable. I added a simple Filter wich gets called (I checked that) and returns the expected results. However the displayed results are completely different ones.

Here is my Filter-Code:

private class MyFilter extends Filter
    {
        @Override
        protected FilterResults performFiltering(CharSequence constraint)
        {
            FilterResults results = new FilterResults();
            if ((constraint == null) || (constraint.length() == 0))
            {
                synchronized (mLock)
                {
                    ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
                    results.values = list;
                    results.count = list.size();
                }
            }
            else
            {
                String constr = constraint.toString().toLowerCase();
                final ArrayList<String> newItems = new ArrayList<String>();
                for (String temp : items)
                {
                    if (temp.toLowerCase().startsWith((constr)))
                    {
                        newItems.add(temp);
                    }
                }
                results.values = newItems;
                results.count = newItems.size();
            }
            return results;
        }

        @Override
        protected void publishResults(CharSequence constraint,
                FilterResults results)
        {
            if (results.count > 0)
            {
                notifyDataSetChanged();
            }
            else
            {
                notifyDataSetInvalidated();
            }
        }
    }

Do I miss something? Thank you!

I forgot to set my results as the new items of the adapter.
