Set this to your LinearLayout background

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >

  <stroke
    android:width="1dp"
    android:color="#ffffff" />

  <solid android:color="#000000" />
</shape>

Add <solid android:color="@android:color/transparent" /> into shape tag. 

<shape android:shape="rectangle" >

    <solid android:color="@android:color/transparent" />
</shape>

android:color="#ffffff"

should be: 

android:color="#000000"

The current color code is set to white instead of black.
