I would try something like this, which has worked for me in the past:

String  itemValue    = (String) listView.getItemAtPosition(position);

This is from within the listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() portion of your code.

If your strings are aggregated into one string, then try this:

//Let itemValue = "item1 item2 item3" for example:
String[] parts = itemValue.split(" ");
String part1 = parts[0]; // item1
String part2 = parts[1]; // item2

try this:

listView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
                    int position, long id) {
                String itemString=listView.getSelectedItem().toString();
            }

        });

Set OnItemClickListener on listview. See on below.

listView.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> adapterView, View view, int position, long l) {
                String itemString=listView.getSelectedItem().toString();
            }
        });

Enjoy!!!...
