Changing Background Color Of A List View

can anyone help me with changing the background color of a list view?. I am new to android and I really need to know this. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

Solution 1:

You can use the setBackgroundColor() method of the ListView.

Solution 2:

would this help for example:

<ListView android:id="@+id/rssListView"
    android:background="#7700CC00"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_width="match_parent" />
