Navigation Drawer item background colour for selected item

by

To solve this problem:

1- You don’t need android:listSelector under your ListView.

2- Open (or Create) styles.xml under (res/values).

<!-- Base application theme. -->
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
    <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
    <item name="android:activatedBackgroundIndicator">@drawable/drawer_list_selector</item>
</style>

3- Under res/drawable folder create drawer_list_selector.xml file

<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/light_gray_color" />
    <item android:state_activated="true" android:drawable="@drawable/red_color" />
    <item android:drawable="@android:color/transparent" />
</selector>

4- Under res/drawable create red_color.xml / light_gray_color.xml (or any other name) and add your desired Hex color:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<shape xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <solid android:color="#C8FF0000"/>
</shape>

5- Open your project AndroidManifest.xml and add android:theme tag (if not exist) 

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
