Doug, I currently do send a broadcast that notifies that data has been changed which in the receiver I notify the ListView/Adapter but obviously that didn't work since I still get the IllegalStateException. I'm guessing that it's critical that the listview be immediately notified and the broadcast doesn't satisfy that immediate notification requirement.
