Arrows for list view in Android

Is there any way where I can have default arrows in a list view,without reading them as an array from the xml? If I use ImageViews for arrows,then they might become really ugly. I am bad in graphic design.

Thank you.

EDIT

I found this site that could be useful to many people.

Look at this for android icons for different uses https://romannurik.github.io/AndroidAssetStudio/. You can use it for your list item row. If you want arrow like ios then create row ui and take imageview for arrow.

Row XML :

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/tvText"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:text="Your Text"/>

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/ivArrow"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:src="@drawable/arrow" >

    </ImageView>
</RelativeLayout>
