Gmail style listview

Option 1: Use listView’s inbuilt choiceMode feature. Unfortunately, I’ve never implemented. So, can’t give you a detailed answer. But you can take a hint from here and other answers.

Option 2: Implement it on your own. Define an array/list or any work-around that keeps indexes of selected element of your list. And then use it to filter backgrounds in getView(). Here is a working example:

public class TestAdapter extends BaseAdapter {

List<String> data;
boolean is_element_selected[];

public TestAdapter(List<String> data) {
    this.data = data;
    is_element_selected = new boolean[data.size()];
}

public void toggleSelection(int index) {
    is_element_selected[index] = !is_element_selected[index];
    notifyDataSetChanged();
}

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    //Initialize your view and stuff

    if (is_element_selected[position])
        convertView.setBackgroundColor(context.getResources().getColor(R.color.blue_item_selector));
    else
        convertView.setBackgroundColor(Color.TRANSPARENT);

     imageView.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                toggleSelection(position);
            }
        });

      row.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                //get to detailed view page
            }
        });

    return convertView;
}

Good luck!
