Appium is kept retrying to find the webElement and not executing the else condition

The problem

I have a condition where I have to click on one Web Element till the new element appears and then to come out of the loop But appium continues try to find the new element

Environment

• Appium 1.6.5 version

Details

Here is mine code

@FindBy(id="Some Id which Appium keeps on trying to find")
List<WebElement>  SessionEnded;

BotButtonForChat.click();
	while(BotButtonForChat.isDisplayed()){
		int len =SessionEnded.size(); // it gets stucked at this point
		System.out.println(len);
		if(len>0){
			break;
		}
		else{
			wai8.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOf(BotButtonForChat));
			BotButtonForChat.click();
		}
	}

I have used the Boolean also like Boolean isPresent = driver.findElements(By.id(“Some Id”)).size() > 0; if(isPresent.isDisplayed()){ do some action } else { Do some Action} I have also tried with Try catch logic

Link to Appium logs

[AndroidBootstrap] [BOOTSTRAP LOG] [debug] getElements selector:UiSelector[RESOURCE_ID=“My Element Id”] [AndroidBootstrap] [BOOTSTRAP LOG] [debug] Element[] is null: (0) [AndroidBootstrap] [BOOTSTRAP LOG] [debug] getElements tmp selector:UiSelector[INSTANCE=0, RESOURCE_ID=com.edmobilelabs.betterplace.dev:id/tvCmdText] [AndroidBootstrap] [BOOTSTRAP LOG] [debug] Failed to locate element. Clearing Accessibility cache and retrying.

I have tried the same type of logic while using Selenium on automating webapps , It works every Time Is there some sort of Work Around Please explain the answer or some logic in java code

Please post the full logs as a link to a gist. Also, what is it that you are trying to do? The little bit of logs here is just not finding an element.
