Disable Ripple on ListView

In Android 5.0, my ListView produces a ripple effect when clicking a list item. Is there a way to disable this effect? Looking at the docs, I don't see any way (https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ListView.html)

You can remove or replace the list selector using the android:listSelector property. The default list selector under Material is ?android:attr/selectableItemBackground which is a bounded ripple.

<ListView
    ...
    android:listSelector="@drawable/my_list_selector" />

To completely disable selector, you can use a @null or @android:color/transparent (works better for some Android versions) value as following:

<ListView
    ...
    android:listSelector="@android:color/transparent" />

Try:

<ListView
...
    android:listSelector="@android:color/transparent" />

This will disable any visual effect of touching. Not very good for the user, but might be useful in special circumstances.

Yes, you can create custom list items with their layout, in which you have to change the android:background with a drawable without ripple.
