setTypeFace works. You have to set it in the adapter on the getView() method. For getView to get called you should use adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();

TextView eventText = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.eventText);
    if (eventText != null)
    {
        eventText.setText(event.getUserName());
        if (event.isNew()) eventText.setTypeface(null, Typeface.BOLD);
        else eventText.setTypeface(null, Typeface.NORMAL);

    }

Here is an example I used for the setTypeFace() method. This code is in the getView method of the adapter.

First You Create CustomAdapter For listView Like this http://www.pocketmagic.net/?p=1343 And in textview 

<TextView android:textStyle="bold|italic"/>
