Disable Android ListView selector

Question

I am trying to disable the ListView selector on my ListView. I set the List Selector color to a transparent color. This seems to do the trick, but when I select certain text, they change colors. How can I make things work ok?

Answer 1

It's not the best solution, but for me it worked:

You can set the text color manually (in xml or at runtime)

Answer 2

Apply below code to your list view.

android:listSelector="@android:color/transparent"

Answer 3

You can change the color of selected items to match your background. This question was asked here.

Answer 4

In your XML where you declare the ListView use:

<ListView android:id="@+id/my_list" android:listSelector="#00000000" />

Answer 5

Are you looking for ListView 's setClickable(false) and setEnabled(false) method ?
