i have to change the ArrayAdapter from this

 adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.rowlayout,
        R.id.label, myList);

It depends on what you want to display ...

if you just want to display some text into the rows of the listview, here is a good example => http://www.androidhive.info/2011/10/android-listview-tutorial/

if you want to custom your listview, you need to create custom adaptor for you listview.
