Your ListView will be using Custom Layout for row item. So try to set background for that layout to android:background="@drawable/selector_listview". Also make sure to have default item <item android:drawable="@drawable/your_default_background_for_row_item" /> in your selector_listview.xml

Set this selector as background of each row instead of listview.
